I photographed for about 2 hours, one on the beach and one at the beach house.  You can see all my favorites on their facebook album!

Thanks for having me out and I hope I get to work with your family again!

The whole crew!

Jim & Alice! The two who started it all!

Trista & Nick with their growing family!

Trista & Nicks kids race to me!
Alice strolls with all the grandkids who can walk!
I love curious faces :)
Cousins and shadows!
Ashton holds her son, they totally adore each other. It’s so cute.

Pay attention to what picture is REALLY happening, and not just the pictures that is SUPPOSED to happen. And that is how we get fun stuff like this!
This tree behind their beach house was perfect for some posed images
And some fun pics of the kids!
Jim and Alice were so kind, what a wonderful family they have started!
Ashton’s son started laughing when she laid next to him, it was contagious!

Thank you to all of you for letting me in close for a few hours, it was so delightful!

Happy Mother’s Day all you wonderful mommies out there!

And to my mother, thank you so much for supporting me even when I do crazy things, I know you will always have my back!

You are the best mom on the face of the planet and I love you like crazy!

Ayla is magically delicious!

I got to take these photos of my good friends during a recent trip to Las Vegas, Red Rocks!

I love the connection in this image, Tina & Aaron love her so much.

Tina & Aaron are sweet friends and also happen to be professional photographers, also!  View their amazing work at Vrai Photo!

So sweet.

Ayla smiles even when drool is oozing out her mouth, she has the best disposition!

If ever a spot was picture perfect, this is it. Yes, that is a real mountain behind them and not a painted backdrop.

Babies make lovely sandwiches, so I have heard . . .

Anyone who has ever spent more than 2.7 seconds around Ayla discovers that she is so easy to love. Her loving family has helped her to grow a free open spirit which is so attractive!

The model rock family!

Love you guys, see you soon!

Thanks Cara & Jeff for letting me do this for you!

Portraits can describe family dynamics, I love the energy in this photo.

The cuteness factor in this family is simply overwhelming!

Jeff and Cara are amazing parents. Not only are they raising three amazing, fun, unique children but they have a beautiful committed love that I truly respect.

It doesn't take much to keep kids happy at the beach!

Levi digs his koala style momma ride! I love his face!
