the heal communion
We have been friends with this good looking bunch for quite a while now. The boys all met when they were in nursery school and have been buddies since.
I was so excited when R asked me to take some pictures of their beautiful daughter for her First Communion. While it was actually NOT her actual communion day, she did have her dance recital this day so it worked out really well since she needed her hair done anyway. And as an added bonus, I got a little preview Irish Step dance in full costume in the kitchen.
Miss J was a real trooper and held out for the pictures for as long as possible on this ridiculously HOT spring morning. She was greatly cheered when I took a picture with her neighbor and friend.
Hope the recital went great and that the communion is wonderful too. Can’t wait to see you guys at the beach everyday. Soon!!

the fara family
This great little family came to me thru my good friend Jen, and I’m so glad they did. They were gifted with a bsquared session and mom decided to put it to good use for their twin girls’ first birthday.
Really, how cute are these girls?? Yes, identical. Yes, delicious.
We really wore the poor things out in our hour of shooting and they were SO ready for a nap by the end. After they were down, mom and I had a nice little twin chat for a bit.
Suffice it to say, they are truly very blessed. And yes, I tried to get mom & dad to participate but they promised they would next time. I’m holding you to it, J!!!

the roma family
Hardly even know where to start, cause there’s just so much I want to say about this fantastic, incredible family.
So, we first met when the big boys started Kindergarten. The middle daughter, C is a number of years older than the boys and took them under her wing at school. They loved her (and so did I) and she was so great with them. C and I started talking and we found out that we are both sleep away campers and I went to a neighboring camp to hers. Then we found out that she and the boys share the same birthday. And THEN we found out that her mom’s cousin was in my bunk at camp!!!! (waving: Hi Leslie! And by the way, Leslie was our bunk’s jacks champion. She rocked those fancies.) So since then C has moved up to Middle School and we don’t see her as often, but we are always happy to see her when she’s up at school picking up her little sister. Oh, and she’s an incredible soccer player on top of everything else.
Mom is such a great person. And I’m not saying that only because she sends me messages on FB all the time about how much she loves the blog! She kept saying that she couldn’t wait to book a shoot once she had an occassion. Well, the occassion arrived like the next day after she wrote that message for the 2nd or 3rd time. Mom is running for a public office in our town and needs some headshots for publicity stuff as well as family shots for her campaign. So we booked a last minute shoot between her kids games and knocked it right out.
This family is just happy to be together and it shows in every picture. They are always laughing and teasing and just having FUN! There are some ‘standard, posey’ family shots as well, but my favorites are the fun, laughing ones.
Their oldest daughter is going to an Ivy League college in the fall (smart and gorgeous). And the littlest daughter is a dancer of epic proportions! I’m not even kidding- her mom posted a video on YouTube of her recital and all I could say after watching it was– man, that girl can DANCE.
And not to leave Dad out…what a fun and funny guy! And you can tell, a great daddy!! Dosen’t he have such a nice face?? Like the kind of person you feel at home with immediately?
So that was a bit long winded, I know. But I told you I had a lot to say!!

Meet the wrig family…
Mom found me thru a neighbor/friend who was a past bsquared client. She has been a loyal blog stalker since! (you know I love that!). We actually got to meet in person previous to our shoot as Mom was looking for some photography lessons. We hit it off immediately and it made me look forward to our shoot even more.
Then I met their gorgeous little girl. She was just perfection and a joy to photograph. Mom said she was concerned as little Miss A said “NO PICTURES” before I got there…but I think we won eachother over within the first few minutes and it was all good from there on out.
Dad has this great old car in the garage that he asked if we could shoot some with. Uhhhh…yeah! You know I was all over that! We had some nice “old car” chat as we discussed the old pick up truck I want so badly.
Isn’t she perfect? Seriously.
Some daddy love. He’s utterly devoted to his sweet girl.
A few outfit changes, including some traditional wear from her birth country. It was work to get those pigtails in, but sooo worth it!
Some Mamalove. Had to make sure to get some extra shots of Mom since like me, she is always behind the camera.
Gotta have some feet. And a little rockin out with the Barbie guitar of course.
It was a pleasure as I knew it would be. Hope you enjoy the pictures. See you for our next photo lesson soon!!

the cald family
This shoot was the perfect way to jump back into busy season. The parents were super nice and accomodating (and just slightly photogenic) and the kids…oh, the kids. Gorgeous, sparkly-eyed, sweet as the day is long, and so, so, so well behaved! Loved them all!!
I could go on and on about this amazing family, but I think I’ll let the pictures do the talking for me.
