Pure Sunshine

It was a beautiful, albeit toasty, day for this summer session. We scampered around Virginia Western's arboretum looking at fish and having a teddy bear tea party. This "Little Sunshine" was so sweet...don't you just love her dress?

I love this one of Mom and Dad. What a nice-looking couple!

What sweet toes in the image below. :)

Have a great day!

Birthday Boy

Happy birthday to this little man! Here are some of my favorites from this session. Don't you just love his big brown eyes? "Mr. C." was a typical busy toddler, but both he and his mom were so nice and laid-back and a delight to work with.

Happy Friday!

Itchy Field

I've often admired portraits done in breezy-looking fields. So when our own backyard sprouted little white flowers, I decided I had to take the fam down into the field for a fun photo session, and to commemorate Micah's first birthday. NOTE to any other crazy photog people: this is a BAD idea! The [very scratchy] grass was waist high to an adult and it is TICK season. Yikes! Plus my husband and I have some really bad allergies. We were super itchy afterwards. I have to give mad thanks to Ezra, for loading up the red chair in the lawnmower trailer and smashing a LOT of grass down for us, so we could walk. And all without complaining. :)
