I’m crazy busy, so I’m just going to get to the pictures. That’s why you’re here anyway right? :)

This has been a crazy week. Gavin was down with the first fever of his sweet, little life. I was a good first time dealing with a fever mom and didn’t panic — mostly because his 9 month well visit conveniently coincided with the fever. Otherwise, I’m sure I would have rushed him to the doctor on the second day! hah.

Anyway, I’ve started rocking the winter sessions. We have a set up that has been so much fun the past couple of weeks. I’m loving it for winter sessions and will probably continue it through next winter. It’s simple, and it let’s kids play and be themselves. Here is round 1!

So, I decided that less words and more photos were a great way to cover all my bases. Starting with…

JANUARY

(funny side note – I posted last years review on 1/12 too.)

I looked like this:

And my website got a makeover…

FEBRUARY

February was my last crazy month. Filled with lotsa babies and kiddos (as the winter months go…)

MARCH

This is when I “officially” stopped taking photos…All I posted about this month was my little mans room and my desires to eventually do more design work…like below:

APRIL

I snuck in one last session this month…because I just love this little girl! And, I was getting ready to welcome my little babe…a little sooner than expected!

MAY

May was crazy. eventful. fun. life changing. and awesome.

JUNE

I don’t even remember June. But I actually did 2 sessions this month. And loved on my sweet baby.

JULY

July was simple. Photography wise. I don’t really remember July either. :)

AUGUST

August was the start of a crazy, fun photo season…that pretty much kept going until New Years.

SEPTEMBER

OCTOBER

So. much. fun.

NOVEMBER

Just as crazy as October…I’m going by when I posted the pictures…so I know there’s some October overflow in this month…but oh man. What a crazy, fun fall it was this year!

 

 

 

 

DECEMBER

December was a whirlwind of getting settled into my new part-time job, finishing up scheduled sessions, visting family for the holidays, and enjoying life! I’m so grateful for this year.

Thanks to all of you who let me explore my hobby and passion by letting me photography your family and kiddos. It was such a great year! Here’s to more fun in 2012.

This was my last little babe of 2011. He was so precious and wide-eyed the entire time. Such a good looking little babe! Congrat’s Annie! He is so sweet.

(P.S. I back dated this post…because I do plan to do a review of 2011…at some point in time. :) )

I hope you are enjoying some well deserved family time. I am definitely relishing these moments I have with my boys! I’ll be back to e-mailing and scheduling sessions just after the new year.

I’m happy to be developing a nice network of photography friends, and I love them. They help me become a better photographer, help me learn more, and help me grow as an artist. They are great!

I have been trading photos with Jessica and Kelly (maternity photos by Kelly) for the last couple of years, and I love it! They’ve both recently had babies. I’m ready for them to get back into the photo scene. Kelly also relocated. While I wish she still lived close, the good news is that she lives about 30 minutes from my parents! We went down to visit them after they had their little man and captured some fun moments for them.

Thankfully, I gave Kelly the unedited images, and she offered to give me the ones she edited. I have had them in my editing queue for awhile now, and just haven’t gotten around to editing them. Thanks Kelly! I’m glad to finally have these images on the blog. :)

P.S. This room had AMAZING light (one window on each side….I’m so jealous Kelly!)

Maybe? I can’t really remember breaking out the camera when the temps were below 20 degrees. We were FROZEN after 5 minutes. I can now say that I am an efficient photographer. (Our session was longer than 5 mins, but we were speedy!). Mid-way through, we took a hot chocolate break…best idea ever! So glad we did that. The great thing about the cold…snuggly pictures are super easy! Congrats Kelsey and Joal. I hope you enjoy these photos.

And, it was so much fun! Kim, your kids are great. We had a blast and hope you did too! (We got a babysitter and Brandon tagged along for this session too! It had been awhile since I’ve had his help.)

And so sweet. And super troopers. Thankfully, it was in the 40s this day because Katelyn had a t-shirt on! It was still pretty cold though. We still had a taste of fall lingering at this location…hooray for that! Now bring on the snow for my January sessions (did I just say that?). ;)
