Hey Coach!

This morning I took pictures for the old P.E. teacher at the school that I used to work at and her family.  Before I left the house, I thought, “Oh, a 4 year old and a 4 month old, this will be easy!!  😉  Well, the 4 year old swore that he was NOT having his picture taken, the minute that he saw me.  And so we started with the baby and she was easy.  Shortly after, the 4 year old slowly started warming up to me and was doing great but then the baby started crying.  lol  I had a fun time this morning no matter who didn’t want their picture taken.  I got some great pictures of them all and I can’t wait to show more.  Right now my computer is going CR-AZY!  So I’m going to restart it and try again later tonight.  So here are just a few pictures that I was able to get done.  Thanks, coach, for meeting me so early.  I know it’s hard to get the family out the door early like that so I appreciate you working with me and it was so nice to see you again and to get to hang out with your family!  (Just added more.  🙂  Computer is working again.  Whew!)

Not quite warmed up to me yet:

Us!

A while back I asked a friend, who I thought took great pictures, if she would take family pictures for us.  I wanted her to take them and then let me photoshop them in the style that I love, vintage!  So today that’s what we did.  It was rainy and cold and just plain uck outside but I didn’t care.  We were getting these pictures done before anymore time passed.  Of course Mya chipped her tooth the other night, but as Ryder said, “That’s what she looks like right now.”  My response?  That’s not what she’s supposed to look like!  But he’s right.  So we went to Round Rock and hung out for a while.  Thank you so much, Brandy!  You are going to go far, girl.  Just believe in yourself.  She told me when she brought my CD by how nervous she had been.  I remember those days of just being scared to death to do pictures for anybody.  Heck, I still get like that before every session.  No need to get nervous with us.  I told her that if I just had one good picture of all of us together, that’s all I cared about and she got that!   Here are some of the pictures.

This one makes me cry.  THIS is what I wanted!  Pictures of us just playing with Mya.  I have nothing like that and that is what I wanted.  I wanted pictures of us just being ourselves and having fun with our baby girl.  And Brandy, you got it!  Thank you!!

Santa Claus is Coming to Town….

….so it was time to do some playgroup Christmas pictures!!  I have to say, I think that our playgroup has the cutest kids around!!  Thank all of you for coming over today.  I had a great time!  I will be getting your CD’s to you later this week!!

Isn’t she so beautiful?  She looks like a living doll!  I can’t wait to do her birthday pictures in March!

Love this in Vintage too:

Look at these 2!!!  Ohhh, so adorable, aren’t they?

And Juliana, always so happy!

Look at how happy she is!  Made my job so easy:

This little pout was just too cute not to share!

Look Who’s 2!!

This evening I took pictures for a close friend and her family.  Her daughter is turning 2 at the end of the month.  She is the sweetest, most beautiful little girl.  And she is such a trooper!!  It was so cold at the park today and she laughed and smiled through chattering teeth.  Her parents are some of the first people that trusted me to take pictures for their family when I was doing photos for free.  I think I’ve come a long way since then.  😉  Looking back, I am embarrassed at the pictures I did for them before.  I hope these make up for those!  Thank you guys for freezing with me today!
