Preview for J&J!

Thunderstorms were in the forecast all day, but when we met for our shoot this evening, the sun was out and it turned out to be a gorgeous night! Even more gorgeous was this little lady, who has some of the most beautiful eyes I have seen! J&J, I loved meeting your family... I need to bring along your parents and grandparents on all my shoots!











And some days, we just don't quite feel like smiling.. but we certainly look pretty darn cute even when we don't! These are some of the moments we want to remember forever...

Preview for A&M!

With HUGE rain clouds over us, we had to work quickly to fit this shoot in! Luckily, this little one was full of smiles and adorable faces! And I LOVED her ballerina moves! A&M, enjoy your preview...
