Happy Birthday times 2

Hooray! I am posting more than one time this week!

These two little sisters came in for both of their birthday portraits.. one for her 1 year and one for her newborn. We had so much fun and you talk about a charmer. Abbey charmed me from the moment her family came in. Look at those eyes (pictured above with the hat & birthday cake) She absolutely LOVED her birthday cake and actually had her face dug into the cake getting "bite bites". Her newborn sister Savannah was as sweet and as pink as ever. Alot of fun... can't wait to see these girls again.
Thank you Branton & Lisa, you are wonderful parents!

On a mission to take more pictures!

Life has been all but calm around here and each day is passing before I know it! I apologize for not posting as much.. I have got to do better. Sometimes it just seems like there are not enough minutes in the day. We have finally gotten into the school routine and are all still getting adjusted to a job transition for Tim. We love his new job and our church Biltmore Baptist ( www.biltmorebaptist.org ). They have been so kind and welcoming and we love the people there! So good!

I was taking an order from a client yesterday and she was having a hard time narrowing down her order and she made the statement, "You must take pictures of your kids all day long, don't you?" *gulp* I had a HUGE sadness come over me thinking about how slack I am on getting my own children's pictures. So ( on a mission to do better) as soon as Sage got home from school I threw her a pettiskirt and I grabbed the camera and a chair and we headed out back for a shoot! It was so much fun and I am now feeling better about myself! *smile* Now, I need to get each of the boys done, which will be more of a challenge. Keep checking back to see if I follow through on my mission. Until then, here are a few from our shoot yesterday - isn't she growing up??

Cute little girls!

I am so behind on posting sneak previews.. I am so sorry for those that I have missed. I had some really fun sessions Saturday and today with 2 different families with girls! Peighton & Drew (first picture shown above) came Saturday and we got some really sweet sister shots and their mom dressed them beautifully. I am on a hunt for the dresses they are wearing for Sage. Chris & Sarah - you have a gorgeous family and well behaved little girls - it was great to meet you all! I can't wait to do your Christmas portraits.

Next came little *Louci* this morning and she was an angel for sure! Look at those blue eyes - my only complaint was that they had to leave.. I am pretty sure I could have just snapped shots of her all day long. Carrie.. it was a pleasure meeting you and your sweet angel. I know you will LOVE your gallery when it is ready.

Be thinking about Christmas sessions coming up soon! They will start up the first of October and I will be posting soon the custom cards that I will be offering this year.. so check back **I am pretty sure I will be posting a give-a-way sometime next week when I give details for the Christmas sessions!**

Can she be old enough?

I guess she is old enough to go to Kindergarten, but it sure was hard watching her walk down the sidewalk to the Jeep for daddy to take her to school! She and her brothers started school today and it is strangely quiet at home. I will miss the chattering, giggling, pitter patter of footsteps, singing, pool splashes, etc, etc. but I am sure it will all return as they get home from school.
Moms & Dads - embrace those little ones - before you know it, they will be headed out the door to school and a new chapter will begin!
