Jack and Noah

These boys’ grandma called and wanted to have a session with her 2 grandsons. The rain held off despite a few threatening clouds that tried to rain on our parade. The boys didn’t mind a few sprinkles so I went along with their carefree attitude and didn’t worry about it either. :)

Jack was FULL of ideas for me! In fact, his mom said that was rare for him to actually WANT his picture taken. When he was game for creating some surprise images for his mom and grandma we went and created some sweet pictures of him!


Noah is all boy! There’s no denying the fact that he would have rather been digging in the dirt than worrying about the pesky girl that was there trying to take his pictures. ) Check out ALL that dirt on his shirt and pants! I love it so much because it totally defines this period in his life.


These next two images just crack me up. As I looked at them I found myself making what Noah was saying...
Noah to Jack: "Jack, don't even think about it. That crazy girl over there gave this to ME"


Noah to Jack: "I am Monster, hear me ROAR" :) (I honestly have no idea what was going on here and had no idea this even happened until I was looking through the images....yes, I was the one that took this picture too! hehe!!)


Jack and Noah – It was so great to meet you and play for a bit! Jack, I loved all the ideas you came up with! You should be very proud of your creativity. Noah, I loved that you loved doing whatever made you happy! You two are very lovable little boys! Your grandma is one lucky lady!

Caden, Drew and Noah

Caden, Noah and Drew

Oh my, oh my, oh my, good heavens, let me tell you how excited I was when these boys’ mom facebooked me and asked if we would take their pictures. Ummmmm….let me think for a nano-second….YES!

We first met these boys’ parents at their wedding nearly 5 years ago when we were the videographers for their beautiful winter wonderland candlelit ceremony. How quickly time has passed and they now have 3 beautiful boys filling their home with love. Love this image of the 2 newest additions being love by their mommy and daddy!


Caden was an absolute hoot to talk to. He talked to us EXACTLY like a farmer. I’m not kidding you, he was talking about models of tractors like it was completely normal vocabulary for a little boy.


Drew and Noah were still so teeny tiny at 6 weeks old. Their bond was so evident and so awesome! My favorite part of the session was when we had them laying next to eat other, their arms were always touching each other and occasionally would bop each other in the face, but it never phased either of them. You could tell they were definitely used to bumping each other around ☺

Tim, Sherri, Caden, Drew and Noah – It was SO great to see you again and meet your family. The boys are just so sweet! Caden, I would LOVE to go to a coffee shop with you and listen to you talk about farming all day. Can we call it a date? ☺ Can’t wait to see you again and see all that Caden will be teaching the twins!

Collin

Sweet little Collin was just 6 days old when I captured these images. SIX days old!

I have no words, he is just so adorable....I will just let the images do the talking on this post. :)






Collin - Welcome to this world! Not only am I excited that I got to capture you so soon after your birth, I am so excited that God gave you to my great friend! That means I get to see you anytime I want AND continue to capture your sweet little face! I know your big brother will tell you all about when it means when "Picture Karen" comes over! :)

Reagan and Gavin

Talk about being able to wrap someone around your finger….yep these two did it to us!


We had lots of fun with Reagan learning about cause and effect. Yep, we incorporate learning in our sessions….whatever it takes to find an attention span right?!?! Reagan would take the beautiful weeds flowers (see exhibit A in her hands) and throw them into the river from one side of the bridge and run to the other to watch them float by.

Gavin….such a handsome little man! This session was focused on the kids only, but how could we resist such a sweet shot of Mr. Gavin and his daddy!?!?! LOVE it!


How sweet is this of Reagan. I love the serene feeling about this image.


Ummmmm…..how can you resist? Too much, too much!




Here is Reagan……and the President or is it the Vice President? What? You only see one human in the picture? Oh sorry, let me explain….it’s the blanket…the blanket has been affectionately referred to by her parents as the President….or when the President is in the wash, blanket #2 (aka Vice President) comes out to play. I have a feeling that 10 years from now, they will all look back at this image with a BIG smile and a story that begins with, “remember when…”

Reagan and Gavin - You two are so sweet! It was so fun to meet you and play for awhile! Reagan, you are a bit too wise for your own good…you and Belle were the best of friends! Gavin you are a trooper and powered through despite your best attempts to tell us otherwise. Can’t wait to get the rest of your gallery ready for you to view!

Harrison and Vance

Vance is SUCH a little mini-me of his big brother Harrison!


Vance is quite the little charmer!


Harrison....my oh my, just look at that face! How can you resist it?!?!


How about this family picture?!?!? I mean seriously, can it get much cuter than that?!?


I can't help but end with this next image. It just cracks me up because Harrison is trying to do a very sweet thing and Vance is having NOTHING to do with it!


(You can view additional pictures here.)

Harrison and Vance - We love you guys! Harrison, we love how much more comfortable you get with us each time we see you! Our little secret session was AWESOME....you rocked it Vance, you are growing up FAR too fast! You are so very sweet and we can't wait to watch you continue to grow!
