First off, let me start by saying….where does the time go!  I absolutely LOVE being home with our kids, but the days seem to go even faster then when I worked!  We have been in Williston for two months now and are feeling at home here and are settled into our cozy little rental house!

This was taken on Christmas Eve day, right before we headed to church.  Who would have thought it would be nice enough to take an outdoor photo on Christmas Eve!

Although I cannot wait to play girly stuff with Julia, I have to admit, I love playing legos and Star Wars with Elias.   He is so fun.

He is now building by himself and is able to follow directions with just a little help.  Julia  is rolling all through the house, so we have had to move the Legos and all the other small toys up, so when she naps he loves to play on the floor!

He created this by himself and it is always a good idea to have a large sign marking a “Secret Lair”-haha!  This Kleenex box has provided days of entertainment:)

Ok, this is getting long….I am almost done, but really, isn’t she cute!  Julia and I are meeting up my my friend Megan this weekend and Megan is going to take some six month pictures.  I LOVE seeing my kiddos through Megan’s lens!  Cannot wait!

Julia is close to sitting and is just starting solids.  Elias has been busy helping me prepare her baby food.

These are just the kind of things I want to remember years from now!

On a business note, I am thinking of offering a workshop geared towards moms (or Dads) who would like to learn to use their cameras better and take better photos of their children.  Anyone interested?  If you are, leave a comment or send me an email, I would love to hear from you!

When Elias gets up in the morning, he usually walks out and says, “How is the little lady today?”.   It makes me smile every single time.  Julia got these baby leg warmers as a baby gift, so I thought we better do a quick session in them:)  Here are a few shots that are sure to make you smile!

Last week, I had the opportunity to photograph another baby Julia!  Her mom had their home all decorated for Christmas, so it was a perfect time for her nine month photos along with some Christmas card shots.  Julia was such a little doll and I really enjoyed our session!

Lilly {one year}

June 21, 2011

Lilly was one of the first newborns I photographed after starting my business.  I also had the chance to photograph her when she was about five months old.  She just turned one a couple of weeks ago and we had another great session together.

Here she is at one month

I have so many favorites from this session, but I think I will stop here.  Well, maybe just one family photo:)  Lilly’s dad couldn’t make it the day of the session, so we met up the next morning for a few family shots.

Kelton {Cake Smash}

November 22, 2010

Here he is again….one of my favorite babies is turning one next week.  In honor of his upcoming birthday we had to do a cake smash session!  Kelton loved this….the whole time he was saying “YUM YUM YUM YUM!”.

Here wasn’t sure what he was in for while I was setting up:

He took one look at the cake and started “warming up”:

OK, I know you have heard this before, but isn’t he just the CUTEST!  Henry and his mom were in town visiting Grandma and Grandpa and set up a session for Henry’s one year photos while they were here!   I had such a fun time with this shoot!  Who wouldn’t want to spend a little time photographing a handsome, happy one year old in a suit:)

Thanks again!  Hope you enjoy these; he is too SWEET!

Milbradt Family

October 17, 2010

Last weekend, my family and I traveled to Bismarck, ND to meet up with an amazing photographer and her family.  Megan and I met though a mutual friend on face book a little over a year ago.   Over the past year, she has helped me grow as a photographer and we have become friends.  We have had the opportunity to meet up a few times and it is always fun!   Her friendship and willingness to help me develop my photography skills have been such  a blessing to me.

Megan and her husband have the most adorable family, so I jumped at the chance to do a session for them!  Megan also did a family session for us and I know I will love every single image!

Look at this adorable family!

Odin {7 months}

What is with this cool September weather?   I love fall, but am afraid it is going to be a quick one!   Odin and his mom met me for our session on a brisk morning.  We had to stop to warm up twice, but he was a trooper!
