I’ve been bad about keeping up with the blog lately! I’ve got several sessions I need to get up here. I’ll get right on it.
But in the meantime…I had one from today that I just had to share!

I got to visit one of my favorite little subjects last weekend for his 3rd birthday shoot! He loves to help his daddy in the yard, and he showed me all of the hard work he does: mowing, raking, and digging. This past spring, he got a little tractor just like his dad’s, and Mom says he spends many happy hours following Dad around as he mows.

Towards the end of the session, he started “chasing” me around with the tractor saying, “I’m going to get you Miss Melanie!” Since it only goes about 2 miles an hour, I’d jump out of the way at the last second (taking pictures all the while), and he’d come around for another pass.




He’s very fond of measuring things as well…a real pro with the steel tape!






Looks like I’m on a run of boys now (I’ve got one coming to see me tomorrow too)!
I was lucky enough to photograph both of these guys as newborns, and I so glad I got a chance to photograph the whole family this time. Check out this handsome guy…

And his precious little brother…

All together now: Awwwww

This was the little guys first lollipop. He was a BIG fan!

We finished up the session with a few shots of mom and dad.

Sneak Peek Contest: This family will get a free gift from me if 25 of their friends and relatives leave me a comment on this post!

I had a shoot with twin boys and their big brother this week! I love shooting twins for, as their dad mentioned, the challenge of working with the two babies at the same time. Enjoy the sneak peek!





Big brother got the giggles whenever all three were together. I don’t know what was so funny, but I loved it! Maybe the babies were tickling him?

And we’ll do the blog contest again: if 25 friends of these boys post a comment on this sneak peek, the family will get a gift from me!

I had a spring session this week (although it felt like summer – HOT!) with a gorgeous family. The last time I saw them was for newborn photos of the younger sister. It was great to work with them again! Here’s a sneak peek…

By the way, when you are looking for the eternal answer….what should we wear to the session??….take a look at this family. Mom picked three colors (yellow, brown, and white) and pulled everyone together without making them all match exactly. They look great, don’t they?!

We got individual shots of the girls…


As well as the two together…

And here’s one more, just for fun…..This picture is the answer to my question, “Where’s your belly button?” After the shot, she came over to point out mine too.

Time for another blog contest: if 25 friends of this lovely family post a comment on this sneak peek, the family will get a gift from me!
