When I was in California in October (I know, this is a long time coming), I was buying some jewelry from Leisa (check it out here, I LOVE her stuff) and she asked if I did trades.  Absolutely I do!  I got to get way more jewelry than I was planning on 🙂 and she got a photo shoot of her adorable family.  It happened to be a really rainy week and we had to cancel on the day we planned for, but last minute Leisa was able to pull together everything for the shoot on another day.  Her husband was at work and happened to be wearing that shirt (which has orange stripes) so she planned their outfits around it and I can’t believe how cute it turned out (well, I can, since she is so darn crafty).

They ordered this one for their home, I know it will look awesome!

I think this one is soooo darling.  I LOVE pictures of my older siblings holding me when I was a baby (though unless my name is written on the back it becomes a guessing game of which twin is it).

This little guy was right around 6 months and couldn’t be happier!

Chances are, if you ever see me wearing jewelry, it came from her.  Thanks again!

I photographed this beautiful family when I visited North Carolina last year and I was lucky enough to do it again this year!  The whole shoot was a breeze and it was so much fun!  We wandered around downtown Wilmington and discovered some really great spots.  I LOVE the way their outfits all came together.  The girls had such cute outfits that matched some of our locations perfectly!  Little miss “S” here was a perfect model the entire time.

Despite the general aversion most people have toward clowns, I think this next shot went better than expected.  This comedic fellow jumped into one of our pictures, though I only got two shots before “S” decided this was much too close for comfort!  After sufficiently frightening the children, he pulled a peanut out of my ear and made a blonde joke. 

“R” is such a great big sister!

These girls love their daddy!

This may have been my favorite part :).  We stopped for hot cocoa (and a cinnamon bun for the girls) and I placed them next to the window for some lovely window-light.  They didn’t even notice me.

This shot with the whipped cream makes me want some right now!

A little clothing change and some sugar in them and then the magic happens!

We got a lot of dancing, giggles, and all-around-craziness.  It was perfect.

Sugarrrr!

Thanks for the fun day!

I think. This was my first chance to photograph baby girl and she did a fabulous job modeling for me :). Her big brother loves her so much and was so sweet with her!

One last shot of the big brother!

It was great to see you all again!

A few of my favorite pictures from one of my amazing repeat families! I so much love to watch the kids grow up :). I couldn’t believe how long and blonde little Kate’s hair had gotten. So amazing that they all have different hair color too!
