Kate and Kate plus Kate = KATE!

Little brother was home with the yuckies so Kate and I had a blast hanging out and playing cowboy! (And she needed some 5 year portraits anyhow!) I'm pretty sure Kate thought I had lost my mind .... but we did end up having a pretty nice time together. :o) Mom is expecting number 3 and I can't wait to meet that little bugger ... especially since 1 & 2 are absolutely adorable! (p.s. I snuck another funky processing picture in the mix - 2nd one down ..... LOVE!)

GRAYSON IS 2!

I had so much fun photographing this little beauty. I mean - look at those eyes! Stunning.... I love this new location I found and am having so much fun shooting there. And although I love to shoot my little southern babies in their smocked garb, I am also loving me some funky shoots and processing like this:

Grayson was so much fun ..... not a bit of complaining and put up with me goofing off for almost an hour!

And .... of course .... I even photographed her in all of her southern charm! (I told you I'd still do it!)

Specials to be announced soon - and more details about my custom clothing shoot!!

Enjoy the nicer weather .... I know I sure am! Hug your babies and live each day like it's your last! xoxo

EXCITING NEWS TO SHARE!

I am so ready for fall.... ready for cooler temps and pumpkin spice lattes and fresh cool breezes in my kitchen. (I just learned last night what a pumpkin roll is so I am looking forward to one of those as well!)

My big exciting news .... I was asked by a local children's clothing designer to photograph her Fall and Holiday lines .... I am starting to get the pieces roll in and will happily post the pictures as I finish them .... she makes adorable knot dresses (and reverse knot dresses!) and cute skirts and peasant tops, etc ..... I am so honored and excited to have been given this opportunity.

I have some freebies from a contest to finish shooting this early fall and then will start on my fall specials for your Holiday cards! So keep watching for that!! It's about that time ...

Here's a sneak peek at one of the outfits she makes ..... I'm posting it in black and white to keep you wanting for more ...... *evil laugh*

Keep smiling, love laughing, hug your family and kiss your friends. Or the other way around. ;)
