beckham
So my neighbor Sarah (madison’s mom) asked if I could watch the kids for a few hours while she went to go check out a possible adoption that they heard of through a friend. Well 3hrs later she shows up with this little beauty in her arms!!! I was dying. The mom met them and felt like they were suppose to be the parents and gave him to them right then. He is 3 months old and is the cutest baby EVER! I’m so happy for you guys!
Still trying to come up with names, but I vote for beckham.

fun sunday evenings
One of my girls favorite things to do is go to grandpa’s house on Sunday. They LOVE trolling around the garden picking peas and veggies and fruit from the tree’s. Thanks Dad for being the best Grandpa ever!
On a side note. Our house got hit by lighting the other night during the crazy storms and our internet got fried.
Anyway if you have tried emailing in the last couple of days, that is why I haven’t responded. It is up an running now and I’m trying to get caught up.
| I LOVE these. I love the colors, I love the processing, I love the scenery. I love everything about these. They are simply beautiful. I would give anything for a backdrop like this in my backyard, or just accessible to me! It is absolutely PERFECT! Fabulously done my dear! ( Sep 8th, 2010 7:19 am)Your girls are getting so big. I love the shot with Mya and the peaches the colors are beautiful! ( Aug 25th, 2010 4:09 am) |





























































Do you know were they got the dresses/long shirts? I’m LOVING them. I can see my 8-month old in them!! And loving your photos … i guess nothing is new their
( Sep 23rd, 2010 1:51 am)Hi Shannon,
( Sep 22nd, 2010 5:22 am)We are booked for location shots until November right now, but could get you in the studio in October:)
Wow — saw your site mentioned on a photography forum and wanted to see “what all the fuss was about” (in a good way) and holy cow — I just plain do not like studio portraits, but these are completely stunning!!!
( Sep 22nd, 2010 1:18 am)This vintage look is to die for.

( Sep 13th, 2010 12:11 am)GORGEOUS! Holy cow!! I need to make an appt!! Are you so booked right now??
( Sep 12th, 2010 11:37 pm)It’s fun to shoot outdoors for that vibe and feel, but nothing beats a beautiful polished looking portrait from your amazing studio. Love the creativity, the shadows, etc… love everything you guys do!! Have fin in CA…!!
