Robin is another good friend of my sister Nicole’s.
When I was in Ohio in the Spring, I was able to meet Robin and her gorgeous family! In trying to get all of my amazing Ohio families’ pictures on my blog, I am so embarrassed to say that I misplaced their blog post in the shuffle.
So, with no further delay, please take a look! I am so glad I revisited their photos tonight and remembered what a great time we had!
Seriously, Casey is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.!




Casey clearly has her super tough Dad completely smitten!



Big yawn! (Pictures are HARD work!)




Thanks Robin & Vic!!

I had so much fun hanging out with this family! These boys are full of energy and they have the sweetest, most gentle dog I’ve ever met – Brutus. Bubba and Paige are such laid back, fun parents. I could not stop taking pictures of them!
Love the way Bubba is looking at Paige in this one!



These eyelashes are killer!

These eyes! Mischievous with a spoonful of charm!



Paige is simply gorgeous!

Puppy Love

I have fallen in love with Brutus. Such beautiful, gentle puppy!

“I wish…”









Thanks, guys! You are such a beautiful family!!

Another gorgeous Ohio family! These boys are so cool! Awesome brothers with distinctly different personalities- and amazing eyes! taking after their Mom!






Love this picture of the boys!

And I promise that about 99% of sibling pictures that I shoot end with one sibling trying to lick the other. I swear!
And it STILL makes me laugh every.time!





Thanks guys! It was so great to meet you!!
Meet Chad & Jessica and their C.U.T.E twin boys, Avery and Andrew.


WOWZA! That’s about all I can say about this one! These two are SMOKIN’!

Handsome Mr. Andrew

And the Handsome Mr. Avery

Brothers making plans!



The morning with these guys was jammed packed with fun stuff! There were airplane races…

home made sail boat races…


& games!


Thanks guys!!!
I have such a soft spot in my heart for families loaded up with boys! These guys were so cool, and they woke up super early on a Sunday to meet with me.

The feet photo – one of my most popular requests! I love it!


Schmoopie mommy moment



I mentioned they woke up early for their appointment- I had my hand hovered over this photo to “fix” this milk mustache, but I couldn’t do it. It’s perfect! It’s life! He’s so handsome!




While I was taking these shots, Evan was reluctant to stand up front by himself. I explained that I was going to take a picture of him with the rest of the family blurry in the background, with the hopes that talking him through “my vision” would make everything more easy and fun.
It turned out to be pretty stressful for him, and he said he didn’t “want to be blurry”! So sweet…

So then he and Brice used their Super Brother powers on me to make sure I didn’t make Evan blurry… or maybe Brice was doing his show tune routine. I’m not sure…

Taking time for some fun Gary and Elaine lovey, schmoopie pictures, but you have to pay attention to what’s going on behind them (I LOVE this!)
First you see the scheming…

Then the charge…

Then the ATTACK!!!!! (Have I mentioned my love of boys!)

Something to commemorate, ya know, the weeds by…

On a serious note, she’s gorgeous!


Thanks for waking up so early to hang out with me! Love you guys!!!

Due to holidays and a ton of unexpected-ness going on, I haven’t posted any new pictures in a while, and I know some WONDERFUL people are really excited to see their photos!
Elaine, Gary, Grant, Brice and Evan’s photos will be up soon, followed by four more beautiful Ohio families!!
I’m excited!! I can’t wait to show you all of the amazing family awesomeness we have going on here!
(Seriously- they’re all still gorgeous!)
Thanks for all of the nice emails, and for being so patient!
Love, Danielle
Merissa is my niece Luci’s ballet teacher. She has the sweetest family, and is so easy going! We had a great time running around downtown… in her puffy cloud ballet skirt! It rocked!!

Pearl.
Could you just squeeze her! I LOVE her name!!

My favorite family pictures are the unexpected ones where everyone is sort of doing their own thing, and not everyone is looking. You really start to get a sense of their personality’s that way.

They have the BEST tire swings in their backyard! 
Robbie. So cool! Bubbling with energy and personality.

Duque is a wonderful member of the family. So sweet, laid back.
Now for some fun shots of Merissa, ballet teacher extraordinaire…
These are her toe shoes, hanging on a laundry line with the tire swing in the back. I love the contrast!
Pearl with Mommy






Thanks guys!! I had a great time!!
Going through this family’s pictures made me smile all over again! There were so many fun pictures to choose from, and, they were the first competitors in the Thumb Wrestling Championship. Zak took the title, but I feared the photos of his “Victory Dance” might make him hate me! That is, unless fluttering around like Tinkerbell is the rage on the teenage boy circuit… I guess I just never know these things… (sorry Zak!)

I adore freckles! Awesome!






The family that jumps together…. I don’t know. What? Someone fill in the blank for me…

Ohhhh, sun flare again! Yay!



You guys were so much fun to hang out with! Thanks!!

I met Sarah very quickly when I was in Ohio, but man, I’d love to talk with her all day.
She’s expecting. She’s gorgeous. She is so incredibly nice! I cannot wait to meet that little baby in the fall!




Besides being stunning, this family is so loving and happy and fun!
Hailey was rockin’ an arm splint after crushing her elbow the weekend before, and, I just have to say that Deb came up with the best idea to end our shoot with. There are no pictures here (I have to save something to send them), but I have three words: whip. cream. fight.
With a side of strawberries.
Oh yeah!




Sister Sandwich!!



Max & Deb

I asked to Deb to look at Max for a little bit. I LOVE the way she looks at him. Completely happy and relaxed.

Solomon-I want to go swimming in your eyeballs. Seriously.

Backgammon in the park.

I love this picture. Solomon could not possibly be any cuter if he tried.
