Violet's First Birthday

Violet has been a client of mine since before she was born. Her perfectly round face is exaggerated by her big chunky cheeks. She turns one shortly and her parents love having sessions done to memorialize the moments. 

And I'm sure there will be more at her fabulous party in a few weeks.

Oh, these little feet. 

{and those shoes, too!}

Mommy handmade those flower crowns. 

And if you'll recall, she had one on during her maternity session last summer, as well. 

Daddy daughter pictures are so sweet. 

I love when I am able to capture these fleeting moments.

Seriously precious. This family is so amazingly beautiful. And Scott and Elaine are some of the kindest people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. 

What a joy it is to be able to photograph them so regularly. 

I love watching Violet grow up right in front of my lens. 

Anniversary Trip 2015!!

Florida Keys 2015!

This was our 6th wedding anniversary, on 7/11. With Tanner being in medical school, we don't often get time to our selves. We haven't had a vacation in a while and we won't have one again for years. YEARS. So here is our trip, in a nutshell. 

We did a lot of grilling and sitting. We basically ate, drank, and sat for four days straight. No complaints. It was amazing weather and the best view of the ocean.

 Shrimp and scallops and veggies e'ry day.

 This is our downstairs room, and our upgraded room was right above that. OMG.

I think we read 6 books between the two of us :-) But Tanner never left that hammock.

That was it. Food. Drink. Books. We are just bums and we love it. Happy anniversary to us!
