Why I Haven't Blogged Photos in a While

I've been busy with this little guy...

 I do have a shoot coming up soon though and I'm excited to start sharing photos again.

My Little Brother's Family

I know he is much taller than me and is all grown up with his own family, but he will always be my little brother. His wife has the most beautiful hair--perfect color for fall photos. And their sweet little guy looks like he got the red hair gene. 

This next photo is probably my favorite from the whole photo shoot. Look at the joy on her face!

But then I also love this one...

and this one...

and this one.

And these next two were too precious to leave off the blog.

Oviatt Family

Beautiful family in a beautiful place. And what girl wouldn't want those hot pink shoes!

Such a perfect little face!

And we even got her to give a big smile--I think this involved some m&m's.

8 Years Old

I got to take these photos of two sweet 8 year old neighbors in their beautiful white baptism dresses. The first was taken in the spring, the second was just recently in the fall. Maybe it's because I only have little boys, but I LOVE little girls in dresses. 

Probably one of my favorite photos ever:

Nelson Family

My brother's beautiful family. This photo shoot was way back in the spring of this year. I remember I was feeling so nauseous before starting the shoot, but when I got to focus on taking their photos, I wasn't nauseous at all. I loved having this wonderful distraction to feel good for an hour or so.  

This is my very favorite photo from the day. Amy and her daughters. Aren't they beautiful and the light and the trees and just everything about it!

Sam and Sally

It's been a long time since I've posted photos. I blame pregnancy. From the first time I throw up (about 6 or 7 weeks along), I just tend to not feel like doing anything extra. But I'm now about 8 months, so I think I should go back and post some of the great sessions from earlier this year or they'll never get posted once this baby comes. 

This one was just about a month ago. These are my cute neighbors. Their mom says that when they're actually nice to each other, they are usually very silly. I think we caught some of that silliness.

This next one is my favorite one--so good to have a brother or sister to make you laugh!
