I haven’t seen these big girls in three years, and little Ellie in two…so today’s session was much anticipated (and sadly rescheduled a few weeks ago due to, YOU GUESSED IT, rain). Today could not have been more perfect for photos…the sky was perfectly overcast, the weather was mild, and I don’t know what memo I missed, but there were NO OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS in the park. I’m so used to avoiding scads of people at weekend park sessions, and today was just absolutely lovely in every way.
Not only that, but these girls? Beyond adorable. Also? REEEEAAALLY ticklish:

See? ![]()



This morning’s romp through the fields was in honor of this sweet family of six. Baby Michael joined the pack seven months ago, and his brothers (8, 5, and 2) give him a lot to look forward to!
I laughed as we traipsed uphill, trying to keep up with Sean and Christopher, trying to keep Andrew moving forward…and couldn’t help but remark that keeping the boys moving in the same direction was like trying to herd crickets. Dad quipped “What we need is a sheepdog.”…but boys dashing in opposite directions or not…we still managed to capture these four boys loving on one another and having a good time:

I mean, when this is your first capture, you know it’s going to be fun!

Of course, we had to make sure that every boy had his chance in the spotlight…



After a week of what feels like constant rain and rescheduled session after rescheduled session, we were so thrilled to see the sun on Saturday morning! William had his last baby plan session, and we had a great time playing in the fall leaves and moving in completely opposite directions (as little boys are wont to do).

Miguel loved running full speed. AT ME. No photographers were harmed during this session (and objects in the lens are closer than they appear).

William, however, was a little easier to capture ![]()


I just adore this last capture!

Confession: When Kayla jumped out of her mom’s car today I had tears in my eyes. She has grown SO much. I’ve photographed this pair for (counting on my fingers…) 4 years now? 5? And suddenly, today, I saw the lovely, poised, confident young woman that Kayla is becoming and had literal TEARS in my eyes. She’s only a year older than my eldest daughter…is this what I have to look forward to in just one more year?

At least I could comfort myself with the knowledge that almost-five-year-old Will is still the mischievous little boy that I know and love from last year.

I love this one of the two of them…

…but SWOON and SIGH and WHY WON’T MY KIDS DO THIS FOR ME???

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
