Orryn {7 months}
This little guy had so many fun expressions and the most beautiful blue eyes! And there is just something so darn cute about little boys in jeans and button-down shirts! One of my favorites from this session is the last image where Orryn is holding Sophie the Giraffe (miracle teething toy). He was starting to let us know that he thought the session should be over and mama picked him up to offer a little comfort. Those unplanned moments always make the best images!
Sisters
This sister session took place on the Monday following Easter and sure enough they arrived wearing their beautiful Easter dresses! Ages 8 and 5 – such sweet girls and they were so excited to have their pictures taken! Big sister was even helping pose little sister! I donated this session to the Westgate Christian School Auction and lucky for me this family happened to be the winning bidders of this package. After we met, I learned that they live in the neighborhood next to mine. It really is a small world!
Sweet Siblings
Carter | One Year!
I have been following Carter’s first year of life through his mama's Instagram posts and finally had the chance to meet him at his first birthday session! I met Carter’s mom, Trish, when my daughter, Hannah, entered the 2nd grade. And even though Trish is married now, I will probably always affectionately think of her as “Miss Cudney”. This session took place in January during a 2-week stretch of FROST that covered pretty much all of Spokane and I just love the look in the final images.
Happy 1st birthday sweet boy!
Kerr Family
My very first session of 2014 – thank you Kerr Family! This was an extended family shoot and the photos are a gift for Grandpa’s 90th Birthday in March. What a great gift! Lots of fun photo groupings with all the family members – cousins only, grandkids + grandparents, ladies only (I think they are a bit outnumbered!), men only, and more. Makes me want to do this with my own family!! It was cold & windy for this early January session – thank goodness for North Face + hand warmers!
