Ok so I thought I was caught up (wishful thinking on my part!) because even though Ridge is now well into his first year of life you just have to meet this bundle of joy. When I was in Texas last spring to shoot a wedding I was fortunate enough that Ashley agreed to pick me up so I got to spend the afternoon with her and Ridge. I fell in love with him instantly and know that the next time I see him he will probably be walking so I figured I better get this post up quick…
I think after this post I may finally be caught up. Phew! For now at least…
I had the pleasure of photographing Olivia shortly after this beauty was born and was then blessed to photograph her baptism on May 22nd (my birthday even!) Olivia’s family and friends were there to witness this special ceremony and Olivia took it well when the Priest poured cold water over her forehead. She actually seemed to be fascinated as to what was going on around her. I want to thank Dena and Andy for letting me share in this day with them-what an amazing family.
I am finally getting around to posting a few of my personal posts from my trip to Texas last spring. A few of my friends had recently had babies and I could not wait to meet them. I had less than 30 minutes to visit with the Lara family and it was not even close to enough but I truly treasured every moment with precious Elijah…
I was in Texas in the spring for a wedding and met up with my wonderful friend Melissa. Melissa brought along her two girls-Kennedy and Piper (I think they were a little bummed Jonathan wasn’t there to juggle for them). So…I did the next best thing…took impromptu pictures of them. I am FINALLY getting around to posting them (hopefully they are not in high school yet!) So here are two of my favorite Texas gals…
My son began his life at Florida State University as a college student this week (my thoughts on that are here) so I thought it was the perfect time to share his high school senior photo shoot pictures. This was an extremely special photo shoot to me-my very own son’s senior pictures-something we got to share together. We had a great time walking around downtown Orlando, and of course Cody had three outfit changes! Capturing all sides and all aspects of Cody’s personality was important to me. He is sweet but also has a cocky side (some call this sarcastic!) He is smart, insightful, witty and funny. He is opinionated yet easy going. He sees the world globally and understands and practices tolerance. He has a creative side but likes order and processes. He is loyal and loving and honest. He treasures tradition and family. He loves sports, GQ, movies, Xbox, designer clothes, roller coasters, cars, his Honda Ruckus… and right now Mila Kunis and Emma Watson! He is above all the most wonderful son I could have ever asked for and I could not be more proud.
