Congratulations Carley and Matt!  Love you!

To keep the hat on long enough for a few shots (the boy hates hats) we had to distract him with bubbles and puppets and singing.  Michelle did a great job with the singing :) .

Who doesn't like a good leaf to chew every now and then?

I didn't notice until now, but this first shot is so similar to the first shot from their first photo shoot!

E (the older one) still recalls when we did pictures at "the castle."  What a memory that kid has!

These kiddos were unbelievably cooperative.  They were so easy.  Thanks guys!

My first shoot was with this cute little family!  My old roommate is this mama's sister and I couldn't believe how adorable these kids were.

I love her serious look.

For some reason I just love this one!

Um, yes, they were fun.

We walked down the street to a new spot and they started a rousing game of "I'm not touching you" (anyone who's spent anytime in a backseat with their siblings should know this one well).

But then they decided they were okay with getting close for a while.

We soon moved onto more mature things, such as slug-bug (according to Koree - I grew up in the south and played it by a different name).

Koree's view:

My view:

What's a girl to do when she's a full 12-16 inches shorter than her clients?  She gets on her boyfriend's shoulders of course.

They were pretty happy most of the time, but towards the end of the shoot their pouting rivaled most 2-year-olds :) .

I had bumped up our shoot just a bit in fear of the storm clouds headed our way, and it turned out to be a good choice!  We were headed back to the car when I asked them to sit down for one last shot.  This is the last shot I pulled off before I heard, "RAIN!!!"

They took cover under a tree.  We took cover under a porch across the street.

The wedding will be here in one short month!  Maybe I should bring a step-stool.

Nice going, Eric :) .

Can't wait to see you two this weekend!!!

Her charming 5-yr-old (and husband) came and I snagged this last shot of Aidan right before we left.  Little boys totally crack me up.

And who can resist baby hands?

Mom bought this hat for L and I loved how it looked with the purple (and the darling baby of course)!

For some reason, I really love this first one.  G got some air!

This one cracks me up.  They were trying to get J to sit with the family, but he wanted nothing to do with them (for about a minute).  Ah, the middle child.

I LOVE this one too!  The way A and G turned around to look at me is just so precious.

I love it when people bring fun, colorful props and my stools matched their colors perfectly!

Jeff and Katie's wedding was gorgeous and so were they!  Photographers, these were all shot with my new favorite toy, the 35 1.4 :) .

Jeff said the South Carolina family would like this next shot!

See how fun and adorable they are?  Yeah, I like them too.

Hope you're having fun (had fun?) on your honeymoon in Jamaica!!!
