birthday boy.

Oh, what a sweet little boy this one is!
Mr. Colton will be ONE soon.
What better way to celebrate than with a Dr. Seuss party and a new puppy?
None that I can think of!

my lovely little ladies.

yummy.

Oh, I love newborns! 

What a perfectly amazing session with baby {M} and the fabulous Kati Price.  This little beauty was a sleeper and let us do just about any pose we wanted with her!  Such a fun, fun session.  I'll be honest, I wouldn't be hurt if I could photograph a new baby each and every week!

Just lovely.

{H} Boys.

From the second these little boys hopped out of their car they had my heart.
Which is kind of fitting since their last name is Hart.
Seriously! 
Their little outfits were so J. Crew and they had magazine-worthy hair.
They could not have been any cuter. 
Period.

Here is one brave, brave Mama holding a Praying Mantis to keep her little boy's attention.  I was beyond impressed.  I don't do so well in the bug arena.  In fact, I was kind of having heart palpitations watching that mantis crawl up and down her arm!  But Amy just replied, "I'm the mom of 4 boys.  That's how I roll!"  Love it.

Those adorable Hart boys are sure going to break some hearts some day!
Get it?  Hart/heart. 
I know...CHEESY, but true!

{R} Family.

Yet again another model beautiful family!
Feast your eyes on the Ruuds.

And I tried my hand a few new locations and love, love, loved them.
Did I mention that I loved the locations?
Because I did.

Thank you kindly, Ruud Family!
