I had so much fun taking pictures of this sweet Mama and her two boys this past weekend. :)
They have been through a lot this year...but she is one of the strongest women I know and they are getting each other through it with lots of hugs and by playing together. :)

P.S. The first two pictures made me laugh, those silly boys! ;)

I'm backkk! :) I have been missing being able to schedule photo shoots these past few months! I have not been feeling the best, and I'm really having to take it easy this pregnancy.

I may be here sporadically until my new little one is here.

I was so happy that my first session back was with the James' family and their sweet baby Ethan. :) I took Kristal's maternity pictures and it was so much fun to be able to take pictures of this sweet little man outside of Mama's belly!

He is adorable, and he played along so well!

I had so much fun taking engagement pictures for these two! :)
They are absolutely adorable, so playful and cute together.

I love seeing couples so in love with each other!

She is a sweet friend of mine, and I'm so happy to see her so happy! :)

These two are so adorable together!! :) I had such a fun session with them....I think I said "Cute!" every time I took a picture of them. They are so playful with each other, and it is easy to see that they are very much in love!

Thanks you two, I had a great time. :)

These two make such a beautiful couple :)
I wanted to share a few of my favorites from their wedding session, it was a gorgeous wedding and so much fun!

I still have lots to edit, my computer is threatening to quit on me after uploading 600 + photos from this session! :)

Something to share...

I have something special to share with you! :)
My husband and I are expecting our second child!!!
I am so incredibly excited...I realize this really doesn't have anything to do with my photography blog, but I am so happy that I wanted to post it here too.
Being a Mama is the greatest gift there is!

Last Saturday I had the honor of taking pictures at this wonderful family reunion. They were such great sports to all crowd onto the front porch, because it was raining all day!

They were such a fun group, and I really enjoyed my time with them! :)

I just wanted to share a few "sneak peeks", lots more coming to them. :)

I had the honor of taking pictures for this beautiful couples wedding Saturday..it was gorgeous! :)
He has been one of my best friends for a long time, so it made it even more special. :)
I will share pictures of the wedding soon, but I took 671 so I'll have to spend a bit of time editing first! hehe

Happy Monday!

Cute little man..

I had so much fun taking this little cutie's pictures Monday! :)

He is such a little man, he loves 4-wheelers, John Deere tractors and wearing baseball caps. He was adorable the whole time, telling me stories and playing. :)

His Mama is one of my favorite people, she was my first manager in my banking career and we've been friends ever since! Thanks for letting me take pictures of your little Garrett, V!

She's my favorite...

I wanted to share these pictures of my favorite photography subject in the whole world, my sweet baby Katie Shae :) She's so precious and I love being her Mama! :)

Starting fresh...

Hello!
I have decided to change my photography blog name in order to make it a bit more user friendly (even I was getting tired of typing in "abeautifullifephotography.blogspot.com"!) but unfortunately what that means is I am going to be losing the posts that I've made since I started my blog in March.
Thanks so much for your patience as I get this photography business up and running and get all the "bugs" worked out! :)
I did want to re-post the pictures from my recent session with the lovely Marianna, we did a session before her graduation ceremony. Perfect time to get some relaxed shots before the hectic evening began! :)
