Bleyenburg chillins

I think that I get really great families to photograph. I am really blessed with who I have been able to capture in my year and a half of doing this. This is one family that just reminds me of that.

I dont know if I am correct when I say this - but the kids all show their love for each other - and it seemed like they were pretty close knit. They are all wonderful kids!!

I went to the Bleyenburgs house to photograph them. This is such a beautiful house - I have put my name in for one of my girls weddings to be here - I think maybe 20 years from now will be a good time to hold a date there. Although, that is one day that I dont want to see come too fast for any of them!!! They are still mamas babies.

Thanks Sue and kids for helping me to have a great time capturing your memories!! It was a perfect day, and you were wonderful to be with.

The Bush kiddos

Have I ever mentioned how much I love to do what I do. I LOVE being a mom, that is the ultimate job, but, I love hanging out with other peoples kids and capturing their memories too, and being with each and every childs personality is just amazing!!! Each child that I have been with without a doubt is differant, but they are all so fun and that is what I love about my own kids as well.

This is the Bush kids and they are soooo fun!!! Little Micah the second child could talk my ear off and is a barrel full of energy - but I have fun with that - espessially cause I could leave him with his mom at the end of the night!!! : ) Keri! Jackson is just a handsome little guy and he is the first born and if you look at his eyes he is going to be a heart throbber some day. And, then there is little Natalie who is just a princess and has some really big brown eyes - that I just adore.

Thanks sooo much Keri for letting me capture your kids in all their personalities and charms!!! They are alot of fun and I had a great time!!!

VanKoeverings

The other day I had the privaledge of meeting the VanKoevering family. They are such a cute family.

I just loved hanging out with them and little Emmerson espessially!!! She is all little girl who loves My Little Ponys, candy, and most of all Cotton Candy yogurt. When I asked her what her favorite food was - I was expecting to hear pizza, or Mac and cheese, but this little girl has all the likes of her own - and loves yogurt - YOU GO GIRL!!!! I love it!!!!

Thanks sooo much Matt, Lindsay, and Emme for hangin out with me the othernight as we went stomping thru the fields and gathered round the old barns. I had a great time, and loved capturing your family!!!

Dennis kiddos

Have I ever said how much fun I have when I am capturing memories. Well, let me tell you...it is Supercalafragalisticexpealadoshious!!!! I LOVE IT!! I try to make each and every individual shoot differant, that keeps the fun part in play, but, not only that, but the fun and exciting people and kids that I get to capture make it all the more fun.

I met up with the Ethan, Molly and their mom Kate the the other day. How fun it was to hang out with them and see their personalities come out. They are cute little kids and they love to have fun!!!

Thanks Kate for asking me to capture memories of your kiddos. I had a great time!!
