Thoming Family–October 2013

We have these great friends, Joe & Kirsten. We just love them to death and we’ve known them for quite some time now. They live a little ways away from us now so we don’t get to see them very often but I cherish the time that we do get to spend with them.

They made a trip down to see us and to have some family photos taken. This shoot was so short and brief but boy, did it turn out gorgeous! We were at Sand Creek Park, right here in Aurora and it was amazing! So gorgeous! In my opinion, the scenery was only a small part of what made these photos so beautiful. It helps to have a gorgeous family to photograph!

Sean & Marjorie are their adorable kiddos and they were just so much fun. I love sweet babies and fun toddlers! They are just perfect. Kirsten & Joe, you have a beautiful little family and we are so blessed to call you friends!

Can’t you just feel the love??

Baby Boy Langager–October 2013

My friend Shannon had her second baby last year, a little boy. I think we all discover just how different little boys and girls truly are when we have one of each. They are so amazing!

Little J was so sweet, cuddly, sleepy, and just relaxed. His Mama is definitely a pro at this whole Mom thing too. She’s just wonderful and I love how relaxed, yet attentive she is to her sweet kiddos.

This shoot was also fun because it brought back memories of her daughter’s session. E & J look so much alike!

Shannon, keep up the great work! You and Jason make beautiful babies!

Big sister was so much fun! So full of life and personality, I just love her with her baby brother.

Smith Family–October 2013

Meet the Smith family! Darn near cutest family I’ve ever met! Garn, Julie, Savannah, Scott, Burke, & Maren.

We met on an extremely chilly October morning, bright and early! We captured some beautiful photos with that amazing morning sun. Enjoy!

Four of the most well behaved kids ever. They were so great, did anything I asked without complaining and with a smile even! They were so fun!

Handsome brothers

Beautiful sisters!

Garn & Julie were like two highschool sweethearts. You could literally feel their love for each other just radiating and touching everything in its path. They were so sweet and cute together. They make a gorgeous couple and amazing parents.

They have been blessed with such a beautiful family and you can tell they cherish it.

Thanks you guys, for a wonderful morning in the sun.

Fitzgerald Family–September 2013

Say hello to the Fitzgerald family! We had a fun family shoot on a gorgeous, warm evening in September.

Rowan & Ellie are some of THE cutest kids ever! So full of life and wonder, they were just so fun to photograph. Ellie took a little while to warm up but she was so adorable! And Rowan was such a ham for the camera!

This sweet little family has nothing but love for each other.

Thanks Lindsey & Judd for a fun little evening! Your family is beautiful!

Wester Family–August 2013

My sister, Alana, asked me to photograph her kids. I don’t think I have ever been so nervous in my entire life! Alana is my best friend, she’s the best older sister ever. Since they have lived in Colorado, our relationship has only grown stronger, and more awesomER! She is quite literally the best. You can boast about your friends and family all you want but my mind will never change. I couldn’t ask for a better older sister.

So I was nervous! I didn’t want to disappoint. I wanted to give her something that she would just adore and wallpaper her entire home with! (Haha, that would be awkward actually.) Once we arrived at City Park in Denver, my nerves melted away. She gave me a huge hug and we just had a really fun time. First off, her kids are GORGEOUS! And how could they not be? They came from ALANA. She is by far the number 1 person I have always wanted to look like! She’s beautiful, a health nut, funny, kind, sweet, amazing, and so, so strong. Everything you want in a sister.

And her kids just follow in her foot steps. They’re awesome and I really love hanging out with them. Her boys, Jackson & Eli, both sent me a TEXT on my birthday this month. It seriously made me feel like a million bucks!! I never hear from them through texts, ever. Unless we’re all on a family group text and they’re begging to be removed from the list so they’ll stop receiving text after text. after text!

And Hayley, oh Hayley!! She is a gorgeous, bright, funny, determined girl/young woman. She’s awesome and I just adore her. I have since she was born. I was the lucky kiddo that got to go with my mom to pick Hayley and Alana up from hospital a few days after she was born. I had never seen a baby SO tiny and new before!

The blessings that we call family. I will forever be grateful for bond Alana and I have built over the years. I love that she lives so close and I think I would die a little if she ever left me again.

Thanks Alana, for everything. You are simply my favorite Alana. My favorite older Sister, my favorite. I hope you love these photos as much as I loved taking them for you!

The handsome Jackson

  

The daring Eli

*sigh* Hayley

They seriously look more like sisters than Mother & Daughter.

I just love them!!
