The Bradford family

I was contacted by Emily Bradford to take photos of her family...she & her husband and their for super cute dogs. I drove down to their house to take the photos since one of her their puppies gets carsick. When I got there and met both Emily and her husband and their doggies, I fell in love with this family. Emily & Jeff were just the sweetest couple and I could just tell immediately how much they adored their little guys. I'm so glad I got the opportunity to meet them and so very much look forward to being able to work with them again.

Back to School Mini Session Cuties

Well, the first full week of school is under our belts and I am so behind on blogging (and cleaning, and organizing, but that's beside the point). So with school now into full swing I wanted to share some pics of the adorable, eager kiddos I had the opportunity to take some photos of at the School House Winery in Dover. It was so super cute to see them so excited to go back to school. I love this time of year. A new start to a new school year, with a new pair of shoes and a backpack :)

Dominick at four months

Oh sweet Dominick! This little guy reminds me so much of my Gauge when he was that age. Adorable little smile, big round cheeks, and chubby little guy. Hi is just so cute!! At this age they are so into what is going on around him and he was just wide eyed and constantly looking to make sure mama was still in the room. He didn't want much to do with the crazy lady with the big black camera in front of his face, but I think even though we still got some super cute photos. Dominick's mom and I have been friends for over a decade. We have so many wonderful memories together and now taking photos of her first baby makes my heart full of joy!! Oh I just love this little guy!!

Tim and Breanne

I was so excited about doing this photo shoot! The groom-to-be, who is a friend of mine, texted me about doing a surprise engagement shoot for his fiance. I was so thrilled...for two reasons. First because, like I said, he is a friend of mine, and I was so excited for him that got engaged and is so happy. Secondly, (ok ladies, don't be jealous) because the photo shoot was a surprise!! How cool is it that a groom-to-be was so thoughtful that he wanted to surprise his new fiance with a photo shoot!! I met the bride-to-be for the first time the night of the shoot, and I have to say, she is so super sweet! I thoroughly enjoyed the entire photo shoot. And I got the added excitement of being asked to photograph their wedding in Wheeling next year. I am so excited for that wedding!! They are both so much in love and it is so apparent just by spending a small amount of time with them.
