remember sweet Hallie

as a perfect little newborn?

she’s quite the stunner at

six months.

eyelashes that go on

forever,

a grab-your-heart-and-won’t-let-go

smile,

two adoring parents.

I love mornings spent

like this.

this is definitely my favorite from the session…simple moment of “I’m gonna get you” turned precious memory. swoon.

month two | I’m so excited about a new personal project I’m undertaking, Film Fridays. The last Friday of each month will be a personal post showcasing a roll of film I shot during the month. I’ve teamed up with some amazing women from Bloom so we may challenge each other as we explore this medium. Some of us (myself included) have been shooting film forever, others are developing their first rolls…but we all have a love for capturing life, for stretching ourselves, and for finding the soul in a subject.
 

these boys are

obsessed

with airplanes.

I found this old

vintage

airplane museum

in fort worth

and we set out for a

family fun day.

to say they loved it

would be

the understatement of

the year.

every day since

at least one boy

has asked

for a

return trip…

soon,

sweet boys,

soon.

the storms rolled in,

the power went off.

for most of the day,

we were in silence.

no tv,

no computer,

no Internet.

I loved

every

second.

and I’m pretty sure

the boys

did too.
