Summer flew by and today is the first day of school. I can't believe SB is in 3rd grade already. I take this photo every year on the first day of school - she gets more impatient with me every year... Thank goodness we didn't have to take it at school like we usually do - "how embarassing!" And the little K-bug is ready to deliver her sister to school. She is so sad because she'll miss her all day. I'm a little sad that summer is over, but also ready to get back into the school and swimming schedule. Enjoy the quiet everyone!
We've returned from our favorite vacation spot - Sanibel Island, Florida. We spent two weeks doing a whole lot of nothin... beach,pool, beach , pool. We read, ran 5 mi on the beach every morning (me) and ate a lot of watermelon. We love the shelling in Sanibel. Every evening when the tide is going out we'd go find amazing shells. I never get tired of doing that! And no, SB's shell is not really that big. That was a little photoshop- but we did find one that big and threw it back because it was alive.

Here are a couple amazing seniors from last week. So natural and pretty. Also, loved adding the volleyball for something a little different. Lots of seniors lately. I know it's nice to have the senior photos done before school starts. It's such a busy year.
For those thinking about Christmas (in August??? yes, I know it's early) I'm booking October now with a couple days left in Sept. Weekends are almost gone through Christmas. So, there's a heads up on getting on the calendar in time for Christmas.
I've always wondered how to get to this location... finally someone led the way. I didn't have to jump from a Woodlands bridge or canoe there. I thought the light was gorgeous and it has a great creek to let kids play in. These boys were very laid back and easy to work with.
We are finally back from our 3 week vacation and I'll have to post some beach photos of my girls. I don't have as many this year because my camera bonked on me. I took my canon 1Ds backup camera and it didn't want to work. It's getting shipped to Canon as we speak. I had another back up shipped after much deliberation and I'm so glad that I did. Those photos will be posted shortly. Off to my 5pm Saturday session..
I am a portrait photographer. My specialty is photographing children and their families. I just love a child's perspective on life. I think the best way to get great expressions when photographing children is to let them play and be a little silly.
