I was thinking about making an effort to catch up on my blogging from the last, well, HALF of a year that I haven’t been blogging.  Hmm, now that I just realized how much blogging that will be, we’ll just have to see if I really want to put that much work into it!  Anyway, let’s start here with these two cuties, sister and brother.  It was precious to see how kind and loving she treated him.  

Charles & Meredith are kind of a staple around here.  You might recognize this family from Meredith’s Storybook bridal session, or their Storybook wedding, or their maternity session just a few weeks ago.   But now,  the Thornton’s are a party of THREE!  Their little family is growing!  
This Sunday will be Charles’ first Father’s Day.  Happy Father’s Day, Charles!

Well, Eden is turning 1, even if the weather is freezing cold and rainy.  So Eden’s mom and I changed our plans and went into the studio for a session with Eden in her gorgeous Easter dress.   

And you know how I have such great appreciation for the moms and dads that are willing to really work to get the smiles?  Well this mom and dad get a gold star for all their hard work!

And then we got our cue…  we’re done.  

Can’t wait to work with this family again for their outdoor family session!

John & Cristina are getting married next year, so we took some time and went downtown for their Storybook engagement session.  They’re such a fun couple, we had a great time together.  Here are a few favorites from their session: 

 Jeremy & Amanda are such an awesome couple and we are so glad they chose Storybook!  Their wedding day was amazing, too.  Everything about the day went so smoothly and perfectly,  I don’t think it could have been any better!

Oh Little Garrett!  The day I showed up in Stillwater for Garrett’s newborn portraits, he was feeling a lot like this:Now, he didn’t keep this up the whole time.  He was satisfied if both mom and dad exerted all their efforts into comforting him, which looked a little like this:So after I had exhausted all my ideas for newborn poses in mom & dad’s arms……we just waited for him to wear out.  And eventually he did!  For a little while, anyway.  Garrett is officially THE cutest turtle I have ever seen. Garrett also happens to be hands-down the most adorable volunteer fire fighter that I’ve ever seen.     What a cutie patootie!
