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









 
It's hard to believe how big Nolan has gotten.  He is actually the newborn in my blog header, so it really is crazy to see how quickly they change!  He is full of energy and as sweet as can be.  I always have a great time photographing him & his amazing family!  Rissa & Hal, enjoy the holidays with that sweet boy!

Oscar the Sweet {Godfrey, IL Newborn Photographer}









 
This little guy is definitely not a grouch...quite the opposite actually!  He slept so well for his first photo session, and I loved every minute that I got to spend with him.  He is my new cousin, so I know the rest of the family was jealous that I got to hang out with him first..haha!  Katie & Jake, I wish you all the best as you venture into this new chapter of your lives.  There really is nothing sweeter...as I'm sure you are quickly finding out!

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









 
Whooo...I'm back!  I've been seriously neglecting my blog in favor of wrapping presents.  Anyway...these are my wonderful nephews and brother & sister-in-law!  Hopefully, you can't tell but it was freeeeezzzzinng....burrrrrr.....when we took these photos.  It was even raining a little bit, but everyone hung in there and we got it done!  We had to get a family photo for the Xmas card!!!  Next year, Ryan & Ellen, we are putting no less than 3 dates on the calendar and there WILL be sun on at least one of them....lol!

Mike, Robyn, Lila & Evan {St. Louis, MO Family Child Photography}











 
I loved photographing this amazing family!  The kids were so precious....Lila was looking for fairies in the trees, and Evan was giving me the silliest smiles!  I got hugs from both of them in the end, and that just makes my day.  Robyn & Mike, I enjoyed every minute with you and your family.  Thank you for letting me capture these moments for you!

This family was tough....it was cccooolllldddd outside when we did their session!  Not once did anyone complain about the chilly weather.  Aidan actually posed for me and Nolan gave me the sweetest smiles!  Dan & Christina, you have such a wonderful family!  I had a great time photographing you all!

Lara, Marshall, Lulu & Sammy {Saint Louis Family Photographer}









 
This family is beautiful inside and out!  I am lucky to call them my dear friends.  It has been amazing to watch Lu & Sammy grow.  I remember both of them as tiny newborns, and now they are such big kiddos full of fun and personality (see above...haha).  Lara & Marsh, you have a wonderful family, and I can't tell you how much I love photographing you guys!
