This one might just be my favorite!

I love this last one…

Happy Thursday, everyone!  We’ll be out of town again this afternoon for bridals!

The entire session with the location, the couple, & outfits inspired me to go in the direction of swet, soft, romantic light… LOVE the BLUE dress by the way!!!

Heather’s bright colors were PERFECT.  Matt, you looked good, too!  ;)

Can’t wait til the wedding in October!

Carter & his mom have a very exciting time coming up, as Mr. Brady is joining their family and Carter couldn’t be any happier!  Unfortunately, I’m unable to join them for their wedding, so we decided to get together and create some new family images to share with everyone!

Brady is such an amazing guy.  I’ve known his mom for over a decade now!  I’m soooo happy for you guys!

Definately a favorite.  Mary Ann, you are just GORGEOUS!  I can see where Carter gets his good looks!  ;)

This baby just never stops smiling!!!  Love it.

Thinking real hard about something new to show me since we’ve seen each other last….  (He finally decided on showing us how well he can SNAP his fingers.  Quite impressive!)

I brought Carter to a fire truck afterwards as his reward for being SO SWEET for his pictures.  In March, he found one of my firetruck toys and brought that thing EVERYWHERE.  Firetrucks are still the “it” thing for Carter, so when he got to stand on a REAL one, he didn’t know WHAT to do with himself!

Checking out the gauges…

Time to head home…  I think we finally wore him out!    :)

I’d like to start sharing some of the so SO sweet emails & “Thank You” letters we receive from our clients, and what better one than to share Mrs. Abshire’s that she sent the day her gallery went live.  Now this mom is also a photographer, so to receive these compliments from her just meant even MORE to me!  ;)

Hi Lindsey,

I couldn’t wait to see the pictures once I heard the message.  I do love the photographs of my sweet girls!!!!!!!!!!  We have been to other so called professional photographers and no one has EVER done that.  I only wish I had found you sooner.   

Do you remember how Chloe wouldn’t sit for a picture and wanted to stand?  I thought something was getting ready to happen since the opposite happened at her birthday the week before.  I couldn’t get her to stand for a picture to save my life.  Sure enough, Chloe started walking the next day and hasn’t slowed down since.  I have wonderful memories of that day in your studio as that session was the most relaxing (believe it or not) and fun time capturing my girls.  The big girls really had fun playing dress up and models!  They want to know when we get to go back.

I have told many people about our session and how it was worth the investment.  Where else can a 1 year old stay happy for an hour and a half in front of lights and cameras?  That amazed me in its self.  You might also like to know why the big girls liked you taking their picture.  They said you talked to them the whole time and made them laugh, the lights and camera weren’t right on top of them, and you didn’t get loud or try to tickle them to make them laugh. 

Now comes the hard part of trying to decide.  I’m sure you hear that all the time, but this is a rare occasion where I have said it. :)

Thank you again and again!

Carolyn’s shoes were ordered and delivered with this on it.  Such a neat detail.

Hard core action shot of the videographer!  Look at that pose – he was serious about getting the shot.
