The Lovely Horst Family

You probably recognize this family by now! I had another wonderful session with 

the one of my favorite clients the Horst family!  

Aren't they simply the sweetest?

 These girls are seriously the cutest! They hold my had, give me 

hugs and bring me flowers, how could you not love them?

Thanks for another great session! I love working with you guys and I can't wait to see you all again!

Samantha, Robert & Colson

Had a fun session at the Railroad station with these fun people!

Enjoy the preview :)

Hammond Family

I had a lovely session with this beautiful family! It was hot and humid, but they were troopers and so full of love for each other! :) 

 Cuddles with mommy 

 The little guy made me work hard for this smile :)

Love working with you guys! Enjoy the pictures! 

Horst Family

One of my favorite parts of photographing families is getting to watch them as they grow!

These little girlies have gotten so big since the very first time I took their pictures! :)

Little miss A is such a cutie :)

As usual it was a joy working with you guys! Hope you enjoy the pictures! Can't wait to see you all again! :)

Horst Family

I've had the chance to photograph all sorts of different subjects, and I must say that I think my favorites are families! :) Yes they can sometimes be hard, but I love being able to capture a family and their love for each other...and this last session was no different! after having to reschedule several times we were finally able to make this shoot happen and I had the lovely privilege of meeting the Horst family!

They were so sweet and the kiddos were adorable! Now a session with a baby and two-year old twins could become a nightmare, but their girls were so sweet and cooperative! It was tricky getting everyone to look at the same time, but with some patience and fun it worked out and we didn't have even one meltdown!

I enjoyed getting a peek into this families life and sharing the love and joy that they have with one another! I especially loved watching the older girls interact (I always love twins!)

You guys are an amazingly beautiful family and I am so honored to have had the chance to capture some of these memories for you! I hope you enjoy them! :)

Thanksgiving!

So This morning I woke up and it just so happened to be one of my favorite days of the year....yes that's right....THANKSGIVING!

I love sleeping in, coming downstairs in our PJs and watching the parades on tv while smelling the amazing aroma of cinnamon rolls (my fave) baking in the oven. Then having our delicious brunch as a family talking about all the important, small and funny things that we're thankful for....and afterwards all 7 of us kids exchange names for our secret Santa for Christmas. That ends the first part of our day.

Then we all pack up and head down to Bowie for an awesome time at my Dearma's house it's packed with SO many relatives, cousins, and 2nd cousins, aunts, uncles everyone! Did I mention there is usually like 20 kids. Yes it's happy chaos! With a delicious Jamaican Thanksgiving dinner...fun, football, card games and then ending the night with the best desserts & watching Charlie Brown.

I love stopping and taking time to be thankful, all the traditions, yummy food, spending time with family and just celebrating and enjoying life!

Yes I do love EVERYTHING about Thanksgiving and I'm so glad that it's finally here...not to mention afterwards there's black Friday shopping and then getting our Christmas Tree! Yes the fun is about it begin!

Wow sorry for that lengthy post, but I figured i'd post about why I love Thanksgiving so much. Since no post is complete without pictures I'll leave you with a collage representing some of the various things I'm thankful for:

(my absolutely amazing family and friends, my camera and photography, an education, peppermint, autumn, our trip to Jamaica and all my Jamaican relatives, mocha fraps, my volleyball team and all the awesome people at school, sleep and my warm cozy bed, and last but not least the Bible and fact that Jesus died on the cross for my sins. Just a few things I'm thankful for this year. )

The Flook Family!

I got to take pictures of this beautiful family last weekend! You guys were absolutely awesome and so great to work with! Not to mention your kiddos are simply adorable! Thanks for letting me capture pictures of your family it was a joy!

Fall is going by quickly....If you want to get a session in before Christmas e-mail me soon! I'll be posting a fall special in the next few days.
