Introducing Penelope

Sweetest little piggy you ever met.

Bottle fed her,

made her a pink leash

and even shared strawberries with her, fresh from the patch!

Oh, how fun that was!

*the other little piggy next to her is Gertrude, very

sweet too, but not as cute!

Head on over to

and see the other wonderful "Pet" entries!

Memories

Even though it is getting colder and we are preparing

to settle down for the long winter here,

I wanted to post a photo from summertime

as a little 'goodbye' to that season in our lives

and as a 'hello' to the newness and peace that

God brings with each season.

May the Lord bless you all

and may you find new ways to remember and

give thanks for His great goodness!

Here are more photos from the shoot back in October,

remember... the ones I promised, oh so long ago,

well here they are!

Loved the lighting and color that day,

it was so golden and the Fall colors were

so rich!

A few more with my sister...

love her, like crazy

C. Family

Here are some photos from a recent shoot that we

did earlier this month. It was such a gorgeous

day, but was actually really chilly... though you can't tell

with this beautiful family!

Aren't they gorgeous?

There were just so many that I loved,

I had to post a whole slew of them.

More on the way from her sister's family!

I L.O.V.E families!

Fall Photos

Here are a few from a shoot I did with my

cousin and his family.

Aren't they just the sweetest little family?

I loved this shoot.

In The Orchard

This week's challenge at iheartfaces

is all about orchards and the fruit found in them.

I love this photo of my sister,

we had originally planned to take the shoot in

the orchard right down the road, but unfortunately

the apple pickers were out today

so we let the field across the way suffice.

Don't forget to take a look-see

at all the other beautiful entries!

It's a Boy!

Remember that family photo shoot that I did

earlier with the 4 sisters and 1 brother?

Well, here is the 2nd little guy to that

sibling group!

Isn't he adorable?

Card with full information was printed with a Luxe pattern (ornate) card design

He wasn't too thrilled with his first photo

session, but the look in this

photo is priceless!

Christmas Templates

Now introducing the new 'Luxe'

Pattern Templates.

Perfect for Christmas, these can be

printed for cards, or holes can be punched

in the circles for mail(able) Christmas ornaments!

Please contact me for pricing and pattern

choices.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas....

...I know, it is a bit early...

but now is the time to schedule your Christmas photo shoot!

Now is the perfect time, don't wait!

Family

Isn't this just the sweetest photo shoot?

They all were so much fun to photograph,

and each of their personalities shown

through in every photo.

I love families, and children.

These sisters had only one

very cute brother at the time

of this shoot, but a week later they

had two!

His infant session will be sure to follow!

Life is precious, and each person placed in our lives

is evidence of a gracious and loving Father.

Keep smiling!

Espoir

Here are some photos that I took

of my sister modeling the tea-length bridal

gown, Espoir, that I designed.

What fun to have a ready model for any whim I might have!

Bridal shoots are so much fun!

Espoir

Whispers of music through the grasses,

light dancing in waves across the field,

hopes floating upward towards skies of blue

and life in its beauty marching on.
