Jason, Carrie, Maxon, Evelyn and Jude

I have had some FUN fall sessions this past month! Such wonderful families. Carrie, Jason and their kiddos were on the blog last year as well. As always, it's so great to see how the kids grow and change. Jude has changed the most since then... he was just a little baby! These cute kids were so fun and they gave me some great smiles. Love it. I also adore the colors Carrie picked out for this session. So bright and colorful...

Oh this photo is a favorite! Just look at Jude... So. Sweet. I love how Jason is looking at Carrie :) I love the silly faces that Maxon and Evelyn are pulling... this is my idea of a perfect family photo.

Alex, Heidi, Charlotte and Olivia

Heidi and her sweet family are back on the blog this year. Last year Charlotte was a little baby and this year she is the big sister :) These girls are 18 months apart, just like my oldest two children. I loved, loved, loved watching them together. It reminded me of my kids when they were both so little.

It was a windy and cold September day... these guys were troopers out in the cold! We had a good time...

Up next...

Just a quick look at what's next...

I love all the daddy photos I got in this session :)

Part 3... one last post

This lifestyle session was posted in three different blog posts. You can view the first post here and the second post here. 

One thing you would notice if you walked into Rachael and Neil's home is that they have a love for books and reading. They have several book shelves throughout their house, stacked full of books. What's fun is their kids love reading just as much! There were so many times I would catch Abigail off in a corner or laying on the couch reading a book. The younger kids would do the same thing, flipping through the pages looking at the pictures. 

One of the requests that Rachael had for this session was to have a lot of opportunities to capture them reading together. This last post of their family is of them reading together and also a few more details and moments that I was able to photograph. 

We also did some playing (and reading) outside :)

Rachael and Neil, you have such a beautiful family. Thank you so much for letting me have this chance to photograph your family in your home. What a wonderful way to remember these times with your family.

Part two... in the kitchen

I am having the hardest time picking through these photos! Here is part two, and I might have to do a part three... and four... we will see :) This was such a wonderful experience for me as a photographer. This is the type of session I've been wanting to do for a long while.

I almost did this post in all black and white. I've been wanting to do that for awhile now and thought this post would be it. But no, I just had to throw in some color! Maybe next time...

Oh I love this photo. Rachael looks so happy with her four kiddos. Such a fun mom moment :)
