That dang tongue...

Nash and I were able to take a last minute trip to Utah this past month for 10 days.  We had an awesome time with family.  I was able to have some photo fun with my niece and nephew.  I have been chomping at the bit to find time to edit these pictures.  I LOVE THEM almost as much as I LOVE the people in them. :)

So much more to come.  Now I just need to find the time with moving. :)

How do you know when to end a photo-shoot?

The first clue would be the pouty lip...

Second clue they close their eyes wishing you weren't there....
Third clue their frustration comes out in a sobbing scream...
FORTUNATELY life is always better with a rubber ducky, bubbles and a spiky red ball.  Not to mention Mom dancing and singing "Kookaburra!"

Aren't we grateful for family.  They always seem to know how to make things right.  Thank you so much Engler family!  You guys were the best to work with. :)

Flowers...

I just wanted flowers for this cute little girl.  Thank goodness Lockridge delivered with a field of yellow and white flowers.  OH I LOVE THE SPRING TIME!

She thought the yellow ones tasted the best. ;)

Long Over Due...

I was contacted by this sweet little ladies mama in February.  She had been in an awesome little store "Cottage" here in Emmaus.  My friend Emma owns the store and referred her to me. THANK YOU EMMA!  I love referrals!  

Although, at the time I was not taking pictures because of the cold weather.  Thank goodness she had patience to wait for the snow to melt and I was able to meet and capture this little sweetheart.  It was probably the hottest most humid evening and she was a gem.

ALL DONE!!!

Thanks Christine and Aaron for being so patient! :)

Motherhood...

For some reason this last picture is my favorite.  I don't know if it is the angle or the look in Christine's eyes that just says...ready or not here we go....life moves at an incredible pace when you are a mother.  I have to remind myself to cherish ALL those sweet and not so sweet moments.

Mom-Mom

Nothing sweeter then a PROUD Grandmother!

Big Brother...

What a lucky little girl! :)

Simple Little Boy...

All it took to get this little man to cooperate was a picture with my suitcase (that holds all my backdrops), a conversation with mommy and mom-mom during the shoot, and a HUGE BRIBE of Rita's ice-cream! 

Life is simple when you are 3!

He's still one of my favorites...you should hear him say my name...melts my heart every time! :)

Baby Gaga...

Every time I do newborn pictures I realize how inexperienced I really am in the baby department.  Yes I have a son but I truly believe you forget what it is like to handle a newborn.  Our really good friends here in Pennsylvania just had this sweet little girl one week ago.  Her name wasn't revealed until the day of her birth (except to a small few) so she was known as "Baby Gaga" :)  She truly is a precious little gift....

Congratulations to the Bova/Masick family!!! More pictures to come. :)
