BFFs

Once again I'm slower than I intended to be in writing about this basketful of fun!!! This twosome isn't a set of twins but are first cousins, Laurali Lassiter and Brayden Lassiter. Their daddies are brothers and they were born just a few weeks apart and we took a few shots of them together when Laurali came in for her portrait sitting.

Bryaden is a little bit older and seemed a little bit calmer when we got started but I don't think he quite knew what to think of his cuz when she started crying.

I'm pretty sure these two will share a special bond as they grow up together!

Little Miss Lucy

I just HAD to show a few pics of Lucy Watson from Emporia, VA. I photographed her parent's wedding several years ago and it's always fun for me to get to photograph their children as well. She was a little sweetheart -- wonderful manners and obviously TONS of personality. She had lots of pretty, "sitting still" photos but I think near the end I asked her to dance. She obliged. Just a joy to photograph!!

"Sock" it to Me Wedding

I'm feeling really tardy in blogging about things that have been going on lately but I've just returned from a wonderful trip to New York. Got to spend a little quality time with my husband and see some Broadway shows.

I've been intending to write about Amanda and Josh's wedding on October 10 for a while now. I had never seen the "wedding party" socks that all the men were sporting until now. I don't know whether it's to make certain that all the men wear dark socks or whether Amanda was afraid they would drink too much and forget who they are.

The rain cleared up in time for the wedding and they ended up with a beautiful day for the horse and carriage to take them on a tour around Colerain after the wedding.

They came back to the church for photos and the wedding party

got a little wild and crazy for some photos.

Amanda got the biggest wine glass of the night because

she WAS "Princess for a Day!"

A sparker send-off made the night complete.

Cotton Pickin' Time

Aren't all the fields of cotton beautiful right now? I've had several people who've talked about having photos made in cotton fields and I think the ones with little children are especially sweet. Check out Reagan in one of his daddy's cotton fields. I love all of these especially the one where it looks like he's escaping from us.

Avery

Sometimes I'm a good girl and blog right away when I intend to and other times I get WAY behind (like three months behind). I had saved the photo at the top of little Avery Grace almost three months ago in my blog folder because I wanted to post it and write about her. She came in for her newborn session and was a little angel. Well . . . time flies and she was back yesterday for her three-month old session. As you can see, she's still an angel and definitely starting to show her personality and her fashion sense. She's ready for fall in her little sweater and hat combo and getting a little bit flirty in her blue ensemble. I'll try to stay good and blog more often but it seems we're in over our heads here with high school seniors and now the Christmas rush is starting so don't hold me to that "bloggin'" promise. Have a good weekend.

New Gallery Wrap

My files are overflowing these days with beautiful children and I know I've already shared one photo of this little cutie before, but the gallery wrap his mother ordered arrived today and we're so excited to be shipping it out to her tomorrow. I think she's got a real treasure for her walls -- every little expression that hopefully captures this age and that his parents will enjoy for a lifetime. This is always a great option when you've just got too many photos to select just one.
