Knee High to a Dragonfly

Beauties

I had the pleasure of working with this family on their ranch. These girls are beauties (both inside and out) and I really enjoyed spending time with them.  The horses were a blast to work with (thanks for all your help with them V.) but I must say the donkey stole my heart.   ;)

Expect the Unexpected

This is a very beautiful and special family.  I know this mom through our local birth community and she and her business partners provide SUCH a valuable service to our community.  I also really loved meeting this dad- we need to get together and talk food one of these days!

So this little bug was acting a bit different than his "usual".  I try and remind parents to expect the unexpected; the calm way that both of these parents handled our session afforded me the opportunity to do my thing.  You know, so much of life, birth, parenting (even photo sessions :) ) is about letting go- so when little ones are just doing their thing and the parents can let go of expectations, well, if I may be so bold, I am able to capture their inner beauty.

Thank you for the opportunity to spend time with your little boy of many songs.

Welcome to the World little R.
