You only turn 2 once

So why not do it in style!  Bouncing gym, pinata, cake, balloons and more sugar then a cotton candy stand!  And how can you forget you best pals!?  And Max was dressed to impress too!  LOVE the cute little sweater and jeans.  A little heart breaker he is!

Sweetness of family

Sweet kisses and a snuggle on a cold Saturday afternoon.  That is what I love about Jensen Family.  They are just totally calm and completely in the moment.

During another gorgeous Colorado fall evening I met up with the Ferdig family.  We did a session with them last year when it was just Ella, but now they’ve added Lilly.  If my kids are half as cute as Monica and Pat’s kids….I’m going to have LOTS.  

Monica told me a story after we’d finished the session.  A few days later they were driving by the park and Ella says, ‘Cheese Rachael!  Rachael’s my friend, but she had to go bye-bye.’   Oh yea I’m going to kid nap her, to freak’n cute!

4 year old Nick

Nick is 4, can you tell?  I love this shot, just kinda sums up that age doesn’t it?  The Maitlen Family graciously invited me into their home to photograph Nick’s 4th birthday party.  I love shooting kids, they crack me up!  They’re never short of energy or imagination.  By the time we were done playing in the yard their feet were completely green along with my knees.  Signs of a good time in my book!

Baby Luke

This is the second session I’ve done with the Lawson Family and I absolutely adore them.  They’re just a sweet couple and Jake is so darn cute.  And now they’ve added another boy to family, Luke.  You’d think it’d be difficult to get any sleep with a two year old running around, but baby Luke didn’t even blink.  He was out cold for most of the session.  It wasn’t until the very end he opened his eyes.  

Thanks Annie, it was such a pleasure to spend the other morning with your family!

Jake wanted nothing to do with a family photo.  Busy busy busy…
