One more shoot before the holidays are here!

I had the chance to take pictures of some good friends!  I have known Jessica (the mom) since we were in 7th grade, and let's just say things didn't start out on friendly terms :)  Something about me being a best friend stealer.  Turns out we were destined to be friends and despite being busy moms we still try and find the time to get together now and again, even if it is just for her to watch one of my kids, or me to take photos of hers.  I have more photos to go through but wanted to post a few since I know she is excited to see them. So, here are some of her adorable children!

The 3 oldest

Oh to be a kid again with mom pushing you on a swing!

I hope to have some of the family pics posted by the end of the week.

Christmas is around the corner...

I can hardly believe it, Christmas is only 3-4 days away (I had to change how many days thanks to my 9 year old arguing with me)!  And of course, things have been crazy busy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.  I had the opportunity last week to shoot pictures of the King Family.  It was such a blessing to take pictures of such a beautiful family.  I was instantly taken back by the eyes of both the children and their mother.  The kids woudln't let me snap any shots of the three of them, but I did capture a few of the kids themselves.
Look at those eyes


When I first suggested the kids climb up into the trees it was young Matthew that seemed unsure about the idea which seemed to shock his parents.  But, as you can see, he made it up there!



 And as it turned out, Dad had brought the family dog, Koda, along with him.  He was overjoyed to have the chance to stick him in the family pictures as well.  It was great, he was a very photogenic dog!  We even found a ball at the park for him to play with for being such a great client!
Thank-you King Family for letting me help you capture this moment in your lives.  Merry Christmas!
