Baby Ross

I waited to share these photos of Ross until my sister and brother-in-law could get all of the announcements out. Note sure if they are all out, but I couldn't wait any longer. Indulge me ... it's a long post. His arrival was greatly anticipated by all of us, but especially Brian and Marisa.

His first name was my father's middle name and Ross' middle name is Marisa (and my) maiden name. Cool, huh! Without further aideu .... meet my new nephew Ross and his gorgeous big sister Ella.



















a screen shot of his announcement ...



Can you believe this baby was a month early, didn't quite weigh 5 pounds and now he looks like this ....



It is really tiring being this cute:

I am so far behind in blogging, I should just give up! I took these pictures back in May ... school was still in session. Since my kids start school this week ... it demonstrates what a slacker I was this summer. Here are some cute shots of my niece that are just too cute not to share!

Happy Birthday Ella!

Happy .... LATE ... BIRTHDAY to my sweet niece Ella. So, I'm 21 days late in posting this, good thing she won't hold it against me. Loved everything about these pictures, down to her chipped purple nail polish. Her favorite color, by the way!

Catching up ....

Meet Christopher. These photos were taken to commemorate his middle school graduation - he looks way older than 8th grade. The whole time I was taking these I couldn't help but think about how fast me two are growing up. Although some days I can't wait until they go to sleep at night, I do secretly wish time would S - L - O - W down.

On a side note ... Christopher totally reminded me of a guy I went to high school with. I was amazed at how much they looked alike! So all you Carbon grads out there see if you can guess who I'm talking about.

Long time no blog ...

It has been forever since I blogged last. Lots has been happening with kids, family, school and work. I have many shoots to share, but wanted to post this one first. My dear friend Stephani is having a birthday and what better to surprise her with than pictures of her sweet daughter Bella. We took these pics for her preschool graduation. A is for A-D-O-R-E-A-B-L-E.

The Callahan Family

Meet the Callahan family.



I went to school with Cori's brother and sister-in-law. I was so excited when she contacted me about family photos. We did this shoot back in November on the coldest day ... EVER! Cole is adorable, as you can see! There were so many from favorites from this shoot I just couldn't narrow them down. I loved this session!























LOVE this one ...
