Good Monday afternoon everyone! And today we have a fun fall family session to share! You may recognize this happy family from our past blogs. We didn’t pick up many family sessions this year since our weekends were full of engagements and weddings but we just had to fit in this great group. We’ve been following these two cuties along since they were 6 months old! They are now 2 years old and have grown up so much! They are more fun every time we meet up.

The weather was perfect as we strolled beneath the golden fall foliage. When you’re photographing 2 year olds and looking for those smiles, you just have to let them play a bit and chase them around! There was definitely lots of running around. We all got our excercise, LOL!

The Rosses are the kindest family! And Charlie and Maddie are the sweetest kids. Every time we see them they always have the most adorable outfits! Oh and they had their cool Tom shoes on too.

Boy that sure was a fun day and a wonderful way to enjoy the short fall season this year. Be sure to check out more fun photos of The Rosses in the slideshow on their Client Site. Have an awesome week!

Sneak peek time! And yes, it’s Monday, but no frets! The weather is beautiful and there’s no reason to not go out and have fun like this awesome family! Charlie and Maddie have been growing up so fast! I can’t believe it! We’ve photographed these adorable twins since they were just crawling but now they’re running around so full of energy.

There surely was a lot of running and chasing after these kiddos last weekend but we had so much fun anyway. Oh and I love kid’s curiosity…who knows one of them might take up photography in the future. Make sure you enjoy this fall weather and stop back soon to see the full fun family session!

Happy Tuesday friends! We’ve been so busy lately that we missed out on blogging yesterday. But I didn’t want to leave you hanging, so I decided to share this adorable baby session we did recently. This is one of only a few baby sessions we are doing this year. Almost 6-month-old baby Molly came all the way from Washington state to visit her aunt here in Oklahoma and took the opportunity to get some photos!

I can’t stop smiling while looking at these photos! I hope that baby Molly was able to brighten your day! Enjoy the rest of your week everyone!

Happy Mother’s Day! I have the perfect post for all you mom’s out there. If you’re not a mom you need to check this out anyway because these photos are so darn precious! Welcome to Henry’s whimsical woodsy wonderland! Celebrating his very first birthday perfectly situated amongst the trees of the park.

I almost died when I saw the bird and toadstool cupcakes! Kelli special ordered them from Cake Crazy here in town and they fit perfectly into Henry’s woodsy birthday theme. And they were delicious too! I couldn’t resist snatching a toadstool because I love Cake Crazy’s red velvet.

Fruit kabobs! Awesome idea mom. All of Henry’s favourite snacks for everyone to share were placed among his forest friends. Henry’s mom and dad kept the affair close knit by inviting only close family. It made the day that much more extra special for Henry. We felt honored to be included in this milestone in Henry’s life.

Everyone got their very own mason jar for ice tea with their name. Kelli even made ones for us. Thanks again Kelli for including us in Henry’s special day! The family cut and tied each strip to make this fabulous bunting. (If you don’t know we have a special place in our hearts for bunting.) Kelli is such a creative mom!

Time to party! The table is set with an amazing spread of goodies, the multicoloured balloons are tied and the family is all here! Happy Birthday Henry!

Make a wish! Put into his birthday throne, Henry was given his very own giant lemon cupcake! Mmmmm…

It looks like Henry liked his cupcake, lol. He made sure to lick the plate clean! Time for presents! Henry’s Dad, two big brothers,and cousins came to help!

There are many firsts for Henry for his first year but I bet riding the slide by himself was on the top of his list! Weeee! And the rest of the kids played the afternoon away riding around the park. It was so much fun that even Grandpa joined in!

Worn out from sliding with mom and dad. Henry took a break and had a blast being pushed and pulled through a magical wonderland of bubbly fun.

Happy Birthday Henry! I want my next birthday party to be this fun and creative! Make sure you check out more birthday goodness in the slideshow on the Event Page. Give your Mom or the closest one available a hug today!

Good Morning Folks! I hope you’re enjoying this beautifully warm Saturday morning {for us southern staters atleast :) }. We hung out with a fun and energetic family on an equally nice Saturday two weekends ago. I have some great photos to inspire you to get off your butt and venture out to your nearest park.

Rachael’s brother rocked out at the park with his newest love, the bass, while Rachael’s daughter Annabelle couldn’t be torn away from her colourful markers!

We first met Joel and Rachael when she asked us to take her engagement photos. It’s so wonderful seeing the blossoming of this beautiful little family. You can feel the love for sweet Annabelle. ♥

You definitely can’t fully enjoy a park on a warm spring day without a sweet little girl in a pink dress running around and laughing in the sun. I can’t get over her big doll eyes!

For more family fun head on over to their slideshow on the Event Page. Have fun today!

Happy Wednesday Folks! We had a wedding out of town this weekend but when we were asked to come to this cute-as-a-button kiddo’s birthday party we just couldn’t refuse! Especially since we’ve been there from this little bean’s beginning. Happy Birthday Henry!

Kelli is always one for details. Birds, squirrels, and owls all adorned Henry’s woodland theme birthday. Awesome Job Mom! And the cupcakes from Cake Crazy were super delicious! And so adorable, I’ll post more next time.

Awww I love the photo above. So sweet! It was an extra special birthday party with just close family. Aunts, uncles, grandpa, grandmas, and cousins all came together to play and celebrate!

Come back in two weeks for more adorable pics to awww over and see the aftermath of Henry’s birthday cupcake. Later dudes!

Happy Monday! Well, it’s been a while since we’ve posted a family shoot since we’ve been so caught up in engagements and weddings lately. But we squeezed Rachael and her family in because Joel & Rachael will always have a special place in our heart as one of our earlier engaged couples. ♥ I’m so glad to see her and her family so happy with their newest member: sweet baby Annabelle.

Of course Annabelle can’t get away from her mom and dad’s sweet kisses! I love her expression! ♥ And it was great to finally meet Rachael’s talented brother and kind parents. Stop on by in two weeks to see more family fun. Enjoy your week!

Happy Friday everyone! Drumroll please…we’ve been teasing you with engagements and such but we now have our first wedding of this year to share with you! Yay! John & Lindsey’s celebration has a little bit of everything so I think it’s an awesome way to sound off the season. {Can you hear the starting gun firing?! I can ;)} Meet this amazing couple ~ John & Lindsey. ♥ We spent the whole day with this fun laid back couple and we wouldn’t have had it any other way.

We met the girls early in the morning at the Salon to watch them pretty up. It was so much fun watching them because you can tell they are so close. And I can’t think of a better way to start off your wedding day than with her family’s famous cinnamon buns!

We all took a break for lunch with the girls having lunch catered at the church to give themselves plenty of time to prepare and setup at the Children’s Library. The boys showed up soon after and hung out in a classroom on the other side of the church. Covering all bases Lindsey made sure to include something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

I was elated when she showed me her “something blue”. Her bridesmaids Karisa, Martina, Lacey, and Molly along with her parents all wrote encouraging words on the bottom of her heels in blue. ♥

Now let me tell you, Lindsey loves surprises! The only person that had seen her dress was her Mom. She didn’t let a single picture leak out. She wanted to see the expression on her bridesmaid’s faces when she pulled it out and what a surprise! It’s beautiful: exquisite beading on the corset set atop flowing delicate ivory fabric gathered to the side with the same beading and laced up the back. She looked amazing! Lindsey opted for a first glance and just to be sure that John didn’t peek until she was ready, he stood there blindfolded and let Lindsay reveal herself. How fun!

To draw out the suspense even further, Lindsey came up with the idea of a father’s first glance. So sweet! I love the tall ceilings and openness of her family’s church. The flower girl, Lindsey’s niece Harleigh, was so adorable! And when Karisa, Lindsey’s maid of honor, took the stage and sang a sweet song, everyone was brought to tears!

Lindsey wanted to add some country flavour to the wedding. So while waiting for the newlyweds, guests were asked to take handfuls of wheat kernels from galvanized buckets. What a send off! I found myself digging wheat out of crevasses even after we got home. Now let the party begin! The wedding cake had a lovely texture and I’ve never seen a more appropriate groom’s cake, lol.

With cake served Lindsey and her dad kicked off the dance. And of course the wedding would not have been the same without Lindsey’s sorority sisters! It was touching watching the Tri Delta girls gather around the newlyweds and serenade them. ♥

I think one of the neatest things at the reception was the longest marriage dance. All the married couples were asked to come to the dance floor. After a couple minutes the DJ asked that couples married less than 2 days to leave the floor. John and Lindsey promptly sat down. Then couples married less than 5 years were asked to sit down. I think you can guess the game here…10 years, 15 years, 20 years. The amazing thing was how long the count down continued. It made your heart swell to see couples married for decades waltzing across the dance floor…40 years, 45 years, 50 years. It continued until only one couple was left and everyone watched them dance across the floor. Lindsey’s grandparents have been married for over 60 years! Now that’s love! ♥

The reception was definitely not a yawn! After the formal dances the music kicked up a notch {or five} and it turned into a full blown dance party! The robot may be a feat in a wedding dress and high heels but luckily Lindsey brought her dancing shoes, Toms!

Lindsey’s cousins set up a truly hip photobooth with a stellar selection of props. The perfect way to take a break from the dance-a-thon. Check out the Boys! It’s doesn’t look like their stopping anytime soon. John’s got the moves!

Wish you could see more of this fabulous wedding? Don’t fret. Just head over to the Event Page, and check out the slideshow. Have a great weekend!

Happy Wednesday everyone! I’m so happy to be saying this back here in the States with Scott! I hope your year is turning out to be filled with exciting opportunities. We are so excited ourselves and I’m happy to share with you our first session of the year! Meet Paige’s family. Paige is a hypnotherapist here in town; her husband, Chris, is an engineer/inventor; and their daughter Harleigh is enjoying high school life. Don’t they sound like such a fun family to know? Well, they are!

For a January winter day, it was beautiful. It was cold in the shade but it was easy enough to warm up in the ample sun. They brought their dogs: Honey, Kona, and Babe. One for each of them! These pups were so fun and playful and you could tell they liked getting out that day. :)

Paige and her family wanted to bring something to the shoot that they all have in common…an iPad! What a unique and creative idea. They each own an iPad and on evenings when they want to relax they all take them out to play or catch up with friends. This family is so fun to hang out with so we decided to be a bit silly with them, LOL.

It was a very pleasant Saturday to be out, especially for January! We were so lucky to be spending it with such a nice and wonderful family. Thanks for stopping by and remember to head on over to their Event Page for more fun family photos! See you again here on Friday!

Happy Monday Everyone! This year is looking to be full of some really fun and creative photo sessions! And we’re starting it off with some family photos! Paige, Chris, and Harleigh were a blast to photograph. I love their household rule: You’re in trouble if you’re not having fun!

And of course they brought along the rest of the family…their 3 adorable puppies, from left to right: Honey, Kona, and Babe ♥ They’re so cute and very energetic too!

They have such a beautiful family! Paige is pretty relaxed and calm, Chris is actually very smart, and Harleigh is pretty cute and laid-back herself. ♥

These three actually like goofing around with their iPads. They laze around at home Facebooking or messaging each other.

It was cool and breezy but luckily the sun came out to play and we all had fun (we didn’t want to get in trouble, lol). And as usual, make sure to stop by again in two weeks for the full photo session up on the blog. Have a great one!
