The Paynes

Yep the Paynes...we are related! Can you tell? Probably not. This is #4 in my portrait marathon. I wish I could have done more for them, but the two little ones were tired so our session was pretty short. We had snow the week before and school needed to make up the day on Saturday. So we rescheduled the session for the afternoon and both boys hadn't had a nap. Even though that happened, I'm pretty pleased with what we did get. I hope to get to photo them again soon!!

The Searcy Family

Ah...3 year olds!!! So this is the midpoint of my portrait marathon...and this was my first family. The little one was very cute and would only let me photograph him after I let him test out my lights (to make sure they work right?!). Such a sweet heart!

Eli

And the fun continues...

Eli is 4 years old, almost 5. He is a bundle of boyish energy and was giving me funny cheesy smiles for about 20 mintues until he got comfortable with me...but then poke'mon saved the day!!!

Janice and Jerry

I did a portrait marathon on Saturday. Six sessions, back-to-back, in Rockingham (where my In-Laws live). It was fun fun fun!! This is my first session of the 6 and these two are so funny. You can tell they really love each other and make each other laugh. I enjoyed it!

My Two Valentines

In the spirit of upcoming Valentine's Day, I've decided to get some cute pictures of Meredith and Eli. They have been very willing lately, and when you include candy in the mix, they are golden.

Enjoy and have a happy Valentines Day :)








I only got a few of Eli because he decided to nap the whole time, but it's ok...almost time for those 1 year pictures anyway :)

The H Family

Mommy S is one of my friends who has come to get pictures with me 4 times now. This is the first time for family pictures though. I had a lot of fun! The little ones are 19 months old and 3 months old so we had our work cut out for us. However they did put up with us for 2 hours, which is great!! Enjoy your pictures S :)

A handsome 2 year old

This little guy made my day when he came in to the studio. Usually 2 year olds are all over the place, crying, and generally not following any kind of direction. "J" was so GREAT...he did just about anything I asked and, with a little bribing, he put up with me, mom, and dad for nearly an hour of photos. I could not believe it! I'm so happy they brought his "bubba" and I was able to get some photos with him too.

Here are some of my favorites (and this was really hard to narrow down so there are a lot).
