Two In One

Very rarely will I do more than one shoot in a day. Being a work at home mom with 3 children under the age of 4, I am very cautious about the time I spend away from my family. Last week I had to reschedule my Wednesday shoot because of rain. I was so bummed. The good thing was, weather was fabulous on Saturday, and my scheduled allowed for me to shoot the family Rice family in the morning, and then reschedule the Pierce family for the evening. It worked out wonderfully and both families were SO MUCH FUN!

First... The Rice Family...

Mom, really is a woman I can connect with. Her two babies are 18 months apart (My three are 18 and 17 months apart for those that don't know) so we were quickly laughing about how crazy life can be with little ones so close in age. I actually met Nancy and David for the first time on Saturday morning. They were so easy going, and the kids were so easy to photograph! The only down side, was the cold front that blew through the day before. Little E and J were real troopers though, and we were able to shoot for a good hour before it was time to get in the car and warm up. Here are a few of my favorites...






Then... The Pierce Family...


Dari and I have known each other since my youngest was in the womb. She was the nurse that listened to his heartbeat with me every OB visit. I was so excited when she called to book a session because, well, can I be honest? Her family is beautiful! It's so easy to take great pictures when you photograph great people. We had so much fun, and yes, we broke the law. Apparently the youngest Pierce had a bit of a conscience, because she confessed to her Sunday School teacher that she'd done something illegal the day before. Ha! Technically, it is against the law to trespass onto railroad tracks. We decided it was worth the risk... and I'm so glad we did! Check these out!
