I have known the sweet Miss O since before she was born.  In fact, some days it feels like I’ve known her mother since we were babies – and I have, kind of.  Well, since we were about Miss O’s age, actually!  I was asked to make these beautiful photographs of her on the occasion of her eleventh birthday.  I can’t believe how grown up she is!  I’m happy to be her official 11 year old photographer – she is a darling subject!  She loves soccer and her dogs and most of all, her friends.  Not really, actually.  I’m pretty sure that most of all, she loves her mom.  These two are peas in a pod.  I only wish Mom had jumped in for some of the photos, as then you’d be able to see where miss O gets her lovely looks.  Happy 11th, Miss O!

I met up with the fabulous R Family to do a Mommy and Me mini session.  The idea behind the Mommy and Me sessions is that most moms tend to be the ones with the camera, and as a result usually have a lot of shots of their kids but few of themselves with their kids.  For my first Mother’s Day, custom professional photography was my only request and I figured that a lot of other mamas would be right there with me.

So, J, being a thoughtful husband, gifted this session to Erika for Mother’s Day.  What a sweet and amazing family they are!  I’m pretty sure that E and J worked as hard as I did at this session – J tried to help me hold the kids’ attention with his amazing handstands and other bendy body stuff that I would never be able to do in a million years.  E moved as fast as her kids did, and together, the three of us were able to keep this exploring duo corralled (a slight form of torture for these little explorers!) long enough to get some sweet shots of E doing her thing as a fun, loving, awesome mama.

Mama and Daddy and Brother and Sister, you guys are so much fun and as beautiful on the inside as on the outside.  Thanks for spending the morning with me!
