Shalla is one of our sweet angels that has her picture taken with us for some time now. I have to say there was a day and time when Shalla did not love having her picture taken. Things have really changed and she is now a total model for me! Her mom and and have decided that this new side of Shalla is our reward for chasing her around (really!) the past couple of years :-) All I can say is it was worth every second of it to get to this point. What a perfect session with a perfect little girl!

I hope you noticed her shirt it says “I’m kind of a big deal”. That is TOTALLY Shalla!! Love it!

So here are two people who cracked me up the WHOLE time we were shooting! Amy told me ahead of time that Dave does not enjoy having his picture taken. So what was my solution?! Take him out for a drink of course! A great appetizer and a drink ahead of time can really help the fake smiles and nerves go away ;-) Dave and Amy are more of my Drury Alumni. I have had a lot of Alumni and I have enjoyed every minute of it! This time I will be going to St.Louis for the wedding which promises to be a beautiful one! Can’t wait to share those with you.

Thanks to Dave and Amy for such a fun session!

Here a few images of the couple that I will be photographing this weekend. Courtney and Chad are so laid back and easy going! I can tell it is going to be a fun relaxed wedding day. I hope to have some wedding images worked up soon to share!  Can’t wait for tomorrow! :-)

So there is something pretty great about being married to a wonderful handsome guy…..Beautiful children! lol. This is my husband little clone, Sutton. He is my sweet 6 year old son, soon to be 7  years old this July. I was blessed with a total momas boy (in all the best ways of course ;)   My children are ALWAYS the last to be photographed, so when I was waiting on a couple for an engagement session and found out my husband (Sean) and son were just around the corner I had Sean bring him by for a quick shoot. We did nothing to get him ready for photos that day so ignore the lack of prep work put into it. He’s pretty cute without the prep work anyway!  Maybe soon I will get my 12 year old daughter’s pictures taken…That would almost make me mom of the year! hahaha!
