Another Snelson... Riley is here!

Less than 2 years ago,  Charlotte was born. God has now blessed the Snelson's with a handsome little dude named Riley Jack. I love thinking about families growing and how shoots change so much. The first child's shoot is very mellow, with mom and dad looking at the baby, loving them, giving them ALL of their attention. Then when the second baby is born... the shoots consist of guarding the newborn from their older sibling! Seriously. I LOVE it and find it quite fun:) Charlotte loved pointing out Riley's nose and toes and such. So sweet. She was also trying to feed him cheerios the entire shoot, and thought he would like her to pretty much jump on him:)  Riley didn't think that was very cool. At all. 

Congratulations Matt and Molly. You guys are such great friends to me and I love you so much. I thank God all the time for our friendship.

Addison and Owen

I have been shooting for the Wiggins family since Owen was born. He is SO big now, and now he has a little sister, Addison:) The last time I saw Addison was when she was first born, so they had me come to shoot her 6 month photos. Like I always say, this is the favorite part of my job... being able to see the same clients throughout the years and watch their families grow. We had a LOT of fun shooting. Owen was hilarious of course and was helpful trying to make Addison smile:) Here are some of my favorite shots...
















Featuring Marc Jacobs for babies... seriously? I need some for Lili!


...and that's a wrap:) Addison. was. done.


Maddie Mae... come play already!!!

I worked for Islands for a very long time, and met some of my VERY closest friends there. Jessica is one of them. I feel blessed by her friendship over all of these years, and now we get to go through motherhood together as well... which makes it that much more fun:) 

I have been telling Jessie forever that she needs to take pregnancy pics, otherwise she will regret it. Then weeks passed. Then more weeks passed. I get a call last week from Jessie in a panic, saying she really wants preggo pics. FYI... Maddie is due TOMORROW!!! So of course we figured out a time to go take these and here they are. So, Maddie Mae... you can come play now:) Your mommy has her hair done, toes painted, and now has some proof she was preggo with you! Come out already!!!

Jessica and Brandon are an awesome couple and are going to make the BEST parents! Maddie, you are one. very. lucky. baby.

Tori is graduating!

First of all... I wish I was this cute in high school! Seriously. 

Tori is graduating this year and is off to college. She already knows that she wants to get her degree so she can work with special ed kids. She has such a good head on her shoulders it is unbelievable! It takes a very special person to be able to work with special needs children and Tori is that person. She already works with some now and LOVES it so much!

Tori... you are beautiful inside and out and I am so thankful I got to spend time taking your senior photos!
