This is Katie. She married Justin on Cinco de Mayo:)

Best flower girls ever!!!

Justin had a great reaction to his bride:)

Do you recognize Colin? :)

What a gentleman:)

Since it was Cinco de Mayo they had El Vaquero for dinner! YUM!

She was totally modeling for me!

It was a cold and windy day but Carzia definitely brightened up this shoot! I had such a great time with her and I was very excited when she went along with my crazy ideas:)

I rarely get to take photos of families with adult children so it was nice to photograph the T family. Everyone listened and followed my instructions and I did much less chasing than I normally do during family sessions:)

This family was so much fun! Thanks guys:)

I’ve been photographing this beautiful family since miss Amelia was 2 months old. Now they’ve also added 10 week old Eli to their brood and wanted to get some new photos. Thanks to the Hilton Easton for letting us use their space!

Such a sweet big sister!

He’s such an adorably chunky little guy:)

Dressed in their Easter best!

Mary Ellen’s sister, Allison, came along to help! Allison and I graduated from high school together so it was a lot of fun seeing her again. Amelia definitely loves her aunt:)

This is my favorite from the whole session. I think it would make a great canvas!

March

How in the world is it already the end of March? I finally dumped personal photos off of my memory cards and sorted through them. Here’s what we’ve been up to.

Theo finally learned to correctly pedal his trike.

Banana bread baking

Celebrating my friend Mallory’s birthday with a cookout at Darby Creek metro park.

My bangs are ridiculous in this photo. BUT, Mallory and I have been friends since kindergarten. Pretty awesome, right?

Theo thoroughly enjoyed the neon Kroger cupcakes. Dear Kroger, please make your icing in normal colors.

After dinner trip to Graeters. OMG strawberry chip!

Starbucks treat. Hello beautiful weather.

Drawing in the office.

This kid is constantly a mess. I’m predicting a lot of baths this summer.

It’s a beautiful thing to be able to hand your fears to God and trust Him completely.

The strength of this family even while facing a very difficult time in their lives is truly incredible and a testament to the Lord’s wonderful power. It was the most meaningful and joy-filled shoot I have ever done and I’m so happy to be able to give them these photos as a reminder of this place in their life and of these trials and hardships that they will overcome.

Thank you T Family for being wonderful human beings. Brad, Theo and I had a wonderful time with you on Saturday morning.

Perfect family portrait!

Brad came with me for this shoot and entertained the kiddos while I got a few shots of Colin and Lisa alone. What a beautiful love they have:)

Lisa was explaining to me about how she wasn’t that interested in Colin when they first met:)
