Quadruple "B"!

Quadruple "B" - Stands for Beautiful Brinley, Brandi and Belly. We all had so much fun Thursday. Brinley was full of smiles and laughter how could I not snap some shots of her as she giggled. Her beautiful blue eyes lit the room. Brinley will be a big sister all too soon. Her mommy Brandi is expecting her baby sister's arrival very soon. Brandi wanted to remember these precious moments by having me record such a precious moment in time. I hope it's all if not more than she asked for.

Who says pregnant isn't sexy?

Talk about bringing sexy back! This is Martha; she has the cutest belly I have ever seen. No stretch marks, Perfectly rounded belly, no weird marks or hairs. This girl walked in wearing NON-Maternity size 5 pants. She was up for ANYTHING, WOW! She bears the most beautiful eyes you'd ever see. I had fun with this one. I hope I didn't get too carried away; I "Valerized"

It's a girl!

I love digitally painting!


A new sister on the way!

Zoo Field Trip


Last week I volunteered to be a chaperon for my son's second grade class field trip. While there isn't a wide variety of resident animals at this zoo the kids still had a great time. I am planning on creating a memory book of the great time they had and the animals we saw and visited. The funny thing is of all the animals at the zoo they enjoyed the peacocks that were roaming around most of all. I must say; so did I. They are just so beautiful. Anyhow, here are some of the creatures I captured. My son must of said, "Mom take a picture" a million times that day; well maybe not a million but you catch my drift ;-)

Gorgeous kitty cat :-)



She looks so sad :-(

Peacocks are amazingly beautiful creatures!!!

Buddies

One thing I love to see are any pictures I have of myself as a child with childhood friends. I don't have many of them since usually I was behind the camera :-) . The ones I do have I truly cherish. It brings me back to that moment. There are times when I see a picture and I remember that moment as if I watching a chapter in my life unfold in motion.

I want my children to have precious memories of themselves growing up. Recently after my son visited with his best friend I grabbed my camera and grabbed some buddy shots. You know the type of image that can be played at their wedding montage one day as the other stands next to him as his best man.

This little boy is absolutely adorable! Such a pleasant little guy. I captured a few for his mommy to keep as well.



Isn't he sweet :-)




Buddies for life :-)


Wow, look at those beautiful blues!


Thanks Dean for being such a good sport and little model :-)

Hello Baby Nathan, Nice to meet you :-)

It was so heart warming to meet this new little guy, Nathan. Kellee (his mommy) contacted me to schedule a maternity session with me but Nathan would be here too soon. Even though this little guy is only 3 weeks old he was very alert and hungry. He is definitely a beautiful baby. Congratulations Kellee and Joe!
He looks so peaceful in mommy's arms.

Laundry anyone?


What a beautiful family.

Yawning babies are so adorable! (O.K. so did you just yawn?, lol)


Isn't the hot tomato outfit adorable, so were his cuddly stuffed fruits and veggies.



Beautiful baby feet. I just love little tiny baby feet :-)


His eyes really make a statement with his special blanket under him.


Aren't they both so beautiful?
