Family Photography

I did photography for a (very sweet) family back 

in the fall, and I just realized I didn't post the photos.

Definitely a fun afternoon with some of the cutest 

(and most hilarious) little guys ever!

Little Details

This photo is one of my all-time favorites. I love so many things about it, I wouldn't know where to begin. I love what you first see about this picture- a father kissing his little girl. But I also see the moments before, where he sweeps her up off the floor and hugs her. I imagine her laughs of surprise (from the box on the counter, it looks like she was helping put groceries away). I love the fact that his eyes are closed and hers are open. I love how she is tiny enough to be held with such ease. I love her nightgown because that means this picture was taken in the evening, which means he probably just got home from work and his children are all excited to see him. I love how her feet are in the picture, that just 'makes' the picture for me. And by the looks of her dirty feet, I have a feeling it is summertime. I imagine sounds of crickets and grasshoppers are coming from the window behind them. I think about how, later, she'll fall asleep on the couch listening to those sounds. 

I love all the little details.

Happy Birthday..

.. to my older sister, Rachel! 

I love you Rachel, and hope you have a wonderful day!

Early In The Morning

My heart melted when I walked downstairs and found this:

Happy Friday!

Ridiculous

Because that's currently how I'm feeling about this whole holiday (New Year's Eve/Day). Honestly, it seems a bit ridiculous to me. Well anyway, Sam and Ellie wish you a happy New Year (if you're into that sorta thing)

And yeah, if this photo is a sign of what's in store for the future... Lord help us all.

Craziness, Hilarity, Family...

I love this photo for more reasons than I could list. You know that saying, a picture is worth a thousand words? 

I'm pretty sure that applies here.
