Josh, Alison, Max, Zoey, & Miles {St. Louis Family Photography}

 

The best part of photography is capturing memories....and when you get to do it for great friends, it makes it even better!  Josh & Alison, it was wonderful spending time with you guys and the kiddos as always!

Hal, Rissa, & Nolan {Saint Louis Family Baby Photography}

 

I just love watching Nolan get bigger and bigger with each session we photograph.  I cannot believe that the next time we get together, he will be one!  He is so sweet and handsome.  Hal & Rissa, you two are very lucky; you are an adorable family!

Pat, Irene, PJ & Anna {Alton, IL Family Photographer}

 

I can only hope these photos capture the energy and sweetness of this little girl and her doting family!  Anna had so much fun twirling and showing off her muscles!  She loved playing in the rocks and acorns (...and kept girlishly clean while performing the previous).  It was great to meet this little ray of sunshine and catch up with some old friends in the process.  Thanks, M family, for letting me capture these moments for you on such a lovely fall morning! 

Ryan, Ellen, Blake & Cam {Edwardsville Family Photographer}

 

I love this family!  I have some pretty handsome nephews, don't I!  I was so happy to photograph my brother & sister-in-law and their adorable boys.  Ryan & Ellen, I had a great time with you guys!  It was so fun to watch the boys playing in the leaves and having such a good time.  Thanks for asking me to photograph you all. I honestly loved every minute!

My Boys :)))

 

I finally got a chance to get out and take some photos of my boys with the help of my hubby.  I couldn't have done it without him considering that Parker and Ty pretty much completely ignore me as soon as they see a camera in my hand (which is most of the time)!  These photos make me so happy.  Being able to capture them as they are now is so important to me especially with the new baby coming.  Things are going to be changing in our family very soon, and I am so glad to be able to freeze these moments!
