2 @ 2

Kids will be kids, and two 2-year-olds will be two 2-year-olds.  That is what makes them cute, charming, full of life, and fun to look at.  These 2 were exactly that:  twins that had their own agenda.  My favorites of this family are all the ones where we just let the kids be kids.  We DID attempt to get a posed shot of just the little ones at the end that included bribery rewards, but they weren’t having it.  They just wanted to play around with their sweet big brother and parents and explore beautiful Ironwoods Park in the fall.  Can you blame them?  I think I came away with family portraits that show who they really are–portraits that FEEL.  And that makes me happy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

A great gift

Why did you have to wait so long to see this post (from when it was warm–hot, actually)?  Because I was worried that my world famous blog with all of its 2 subscribers would ruin the surprise for a woman in Iowa.  Ha!  Well, anyway, this woman got a very nice Christmas present from her kids, and now, I can finally blog about it!  These pictures will probably make you wish it was warm now :)   Enjoy!

 

 

 

Reflections of 2011

Thank you so much to all of my clients for making 2011 such a fantastic year!  I’m excited for 2012!

 

Home Sweet Home for Christmas

We had plans to go out of town this Christmas, but a nasty little cold virus had other plans.  All three kiddos were feverish over Christmas, but we made the most of it with lots of extra snuggles.  Oh, how I love these kids!  Fall 2011…

and the front of our Christmas card this year:

 

 

Family in the Fall

I met with this family one Saturday afternoon about 2 months ago (yes, I’m behind on blogging) at Antioch Park.  It was so gorgeous with fall color, and I wasn’t the only person who though so!  It was SWARMING with other photographers doing fall family photo shoots.  We found a little corner of the park where no one else was and shot away!
