Martin County High School Class of 2005

This past weekend was my high school class 10 year reunion. 

Holy cow.

There was a decent turnout of past classmates in attendance and we partied like it was high school. My husband speculated multiple times on what a crazy bunch we must have been. 

And we were crazy.

Well, we still are. 

The festivities were physically exhausting! 

(As a mother of two young ones, staying up much later than 11p is truly brutal!)

I did have the sincere pleasure of photographing the party on Saturday night. Although I do wish I had taken pictures at the unofficial party on Friday night, as well. 

I am adding some of the photos to my Facebook page, Samantha Barfield Photography, but I will upload all of them to Dropbox so they may be downloaded by the party-goers.

Here are just a few to represent how the evening went...  

 The DJ for the evening was also a former Tiger '05 and a dear friend of mine. 

I was glad to be a 'vendor' at this event with him. 

 Cheerleaders!!

This one is here because my husband knew more people than I did at my reunion. 

(We did not go to the same high school!)

My Besties

The Popular Girls

We had Napoleon Dynamite 

Just a little Dancing

Oh yes, there were tutus.

Orlando Family and 1st Birthday Session

This session was for grandma and grandpa. Momma, K, has her parents in town from Canada and wanted to give them a session with their only grandson on his first birthday. Hubby was busy but that didn't stop the little family from pouring out love. Baby J was happy and all giggles that afternoon. 

He's a blessed little boy to have so many people that adore him in his life!

Family Fun, Down Town Stuart <3

This family was so fun! The boys were two years apart, just like my boys! I got a little peak into my very own future. Boys are a handful but I'm so excited to experience the craziness they will bring to our lives. 

Anyways, what a fun session near down town Stuart, Florida. It was warm and so so sunny. Much sunnier than I expected. But it was a beautiful day. Everyone just glowed. 

I love that the boys looked different in every single shot. They were constantly changing expressions and being goofy. It was so fun!

Nature Inspires.

One thing that I love taking photos of is the outdoors. But it's been difficult lately because we don't have much in the way of scenery around here and when I do go someplace, it's a park or other venue made for my boys. Which is so great. But I love pictures in the middle of nowhere, when I can find odd trees and amazing wild life. I had a chance not too long ago to be outdoors in a beautiful spot and I took advantage of it. 

Being able to see so far into the trees is beautiful. Stunning, really. So much depth and detail. 

And I always try to remember to look UP!

And down. 

Get outside this week and explore the world around you. It's exciting to see what surrounds you daily. Sometimes it's a lot more than we realize. 

Baby V Sixth Month Session

Baby Vi is six months old! Oh my goodness. 

I had the pleasure of taking her photos in the most beautiful weather at an amazing park in downtown Orlando. 

Seriously, she gets it from her mamma. 

Mamma love

I love this for the sheer simplicity of it. And the wind.

Cutie with a booty

I mean, come on. 

This is my favorite. 

The Christmas Vacation

Here are some highlights from my Christmas vacation. 

We had so much fun. 

It was just a great couple of weeks.
