The Marcolino Family - Maternity Shoot

This gorgeous couple came over this morning and spent time with me. Mom is around the 34th week (I believe!) and is ALL baby. And wow - is she gorgeous.

I swear - I've read in books how 'pregnant women' are just gorgeous. I know when I was pregnant - I didn't spend a lot of that 9 months thinking - oh wow - I'm gorgeous. Mainly I felt fat... and tired. But there is just something about a pregnant woman... I try to capture that beauty... and when I get pretty momma's like this one... I really enjoy it!

Just to warn you... before you scroll down... there is one seriously hot image of the soon to be mom and dad... *grin*

This pink background just complimented her skin so much!

Apparently she looks good no matter what she's in... loved the purple though...

Simple...

For some reason I keep thinking 'madonna' when I see this... but not 'Madonna'... she just looks gorgeous!

And my absolute favorite...

Brandon Senior Session: Part 2

We broke Brandon's session up so that we could get some pictures of one his favorite activities, which is going to the gym.

I think this is my favorite of the day:

We also had a bit of fun with the full moon outside...Brandon's mom and his friend spent quite a few minutes laughing at this:

And one more serious one (Brandon LIKES serious looks!)

I hope you enjoyed a peak into Brandon's Senior Session! If you need to book yours, contact me!

Tween Session

Teenage Angst... even though she's not 'quite' a teen yet. There is a look that only the young can give you.

Did I mention she's only eleven?? Her dad is making sure his guns are clean... I know he is. I think I'll help him.

The Browns

I had the pleasure of photographing the Brown family today. Coach Brown was Tori's cross country coach, and my first experience with sports at school. I have to say that she made it a pleasure. She's one of those people that you KNOW they are where they should be. She loves the kids - and after meeting her family - I realized.... goofiness must be hereditary.

All 3 of her boys have J names.... and all 3 of them are seriously goofy in a very good natured way. They were cutting up and giving each other a hard time...

This is 'my' favorite of the day...I handed them all these little sparkly gifts and said: Give them to your mom... and the laughter started...

They are definitely a gorgeous family though...

Their youngest (he is on the right) - enjoyed the 'no smiling, give me some attitude' part!

These three.... they defined 'brother' to me...

Thank you so much for letting me take your family photos - it was a pleasure!
