Such an awesome session last night! I had the chance to meet 6-year old twin sisters…who were so spunky and fun! What a great chance it was for me to capture their personalities! And considering there were about a dozen photographers out between the two locations we shot at, we certainly had our work cut out for us! I loved their outfits, their smiles, and how they interacted with each other.

and just one snap of the horseplay…I love this!

The holiday minis have been going great…I still have a handful to complete before the seas0n is over, but I wanted to share a sampling of some of the families I have seen this month. And a special thanks to my friend Sarah for letting us have use of your loft…it is an awesome space!

and I’m pretty sure this was my favorite of the day…it takes a lot of work to get the perfect picture!

I was supposed to meet J&L 10 days ago for a sunset session….but we had some crazy, tornado-warning kind of storms roll through that night. Needless to say, we rescheduled. This morning there was a breeze, some pretty fantastic cloud cover, and two of cutest kids I’ve ever seen – who lucky for me, were in great moods! Mom challenged me with getting smiles from the two of them…I fully expected to have to work at it, but I was hard pressed to find a shot without a smile as I went through the files!

This session’s images will soon be gracing mom’s exam rooms at Women’s Integrated Healthcare. My family has a special place in our hearts for this mom…she delivered my son two and half years ago – and you all know how much I adore my son, lol! I think we got some really fun stuff today, capturing 6 years and 2 years and lots of smiles…

Just in case mom decides to check the blog again…I loved this image, and couldn’t wait to share – she loves on them just long enough for the shot, then she’s “all done!”

I recently had the opportunity to put up a display at Women’s Integrated Healthcare in my OB’s part of the office. One of her partners in practice had sweet little boy/girl twins about 3 months ago, and I got to spend the afternoon photographing them and their super sweet big sister Miss F…who just might be the best helper ever!

Meet B and H…simply adorable! Miss H is totally addicted to her soothie…but if it is the only vice she has in life, you can’t complain! And Mister B is quite possibly the most laid back baby I have ever had the chance to know. Good thing too, being the middle child sandwiched right between the girls means he’ll have to be chill to survive.

Thanks mom for having me out, it isn’t every day I get to photograph a Nittany Lion’s babies! That’s right, mom is a Penn State alum too…I knew I loved her!
