Connor is 9 months old







I just love to photograph children, especially at 9 months! They are such a joy, and Connor was no exception.













Alex has arrived!! We are so excited to have Alex here. Never take children for granted. Each one is a precious gift from God. After a bit of a struggle when he was first born, Alex is now doing great and ready to grow with his sister & brother.

Addison turns one!










Addison is having a big birthday...her first one! She was a joy to work with. When she reached for me, my heart melted. Children are so much fun!

Alyssa






















This is my oldest grandchild, Alyssa. We both had a ball during this session. When photographing grandchildren, you never know how they will act. She was extremely excited about having her portrait made. What a little princess!






Caleb turns two!











This is one of my grandsons, Caleb. He lasted for 5 minutes and then was over it! I am photographing all of my grandchildren and hoping to capture all sides of their little personalities. Don't even ask how many images we have of each one!




Kolby at 9 months
















This is my little buddy Kolby. He recently turned 9 months old. He can't walk yet, but he sure can crawl fast!





Sheila


Inspired by a painting at my beauty salon, Salon LaBella, I wanted to create a painting of a beautiful adult woman. Because I usually photograph children & families, this was a very pleasant change. I hope you enjoy this painting.

Tiffany for Arney Guess Goldsmith




Recently I photographed an extremely enjoyable session. The guys at Arney Guess Goldsmith, http://www.jewelryfromscratch.com/, a local jewelry store that specializes in custom jewelry, wanted me to paint some portraits to display at their store. My model was Tiffany, whose husband is soon to be an employee at the jewelry store. I got to be creative which is a huge stress releiver for me. Thanks Tiffany for being my model. You were great!!

Jenna
















Jenna is a sweet little girl just full of personality! We like to play together. I hope you can sense what a fun time we had together by her portraits. Even when Jenna gives me her sad face, she smiles. Don't you wish we were all like that?

David Jones







David came today for his business portrait session. While he might had rather been fishing (and what guy wouldn't?) he was a real trooper about having his portrait made.



Charlotte Ann







Charlotte Ann & Eli just could not have been better! It was about to storm when her parents drove up for their outdoor, formal portrait session. They rushed into portrait mode and we all worked together like a well oiled piece of machinery. Just as we finished, the huge drops of rain began and didn't stop until the next day. I was so proud of Charlotte Ann & Eli. They were perfect children for their session.

Jonathan Adams
















It was a delight to get to photograph the Adams family today. Can you believe Jonathan is only four months old? I believe he is going to be tall like his daddy.

Smith family







This is one of my favorite families in the world! They are so much fun to be around. And it doesn't hurt that they love the lake and to go camping!
