"Other things may change us, but we start and end with family." ~Anthony Brandt

I had the pleasure of meeting the Harris family this weekend! This was the first session with the family so I was excited to get to know them! They showed up with beautiful 4 year old Larissa and her adorable younger brother Graham. I could immediately tell how close this family was. Even Larissa and Grahm were like two peas in a pod and kept me smiling the entire time. It's rare you see brother and sister hold hands unless they're forced to to cross the street or to pose for a picture but, these two would just lock hands and walk together. It was the cutes thing and I just found myself curious as to what they would do next! Especially Graham...you can tell by the pictures he's the ornery one...he's the kind that just makes you want to laugh! That infectious little smile pretty much says it all : ) His sister Larissa on the other hand is quiet and more reserved...an absolute beautiful little girl and I often found myself curious as to what she was thinking...she had the best expressions! Not always smiling but most of my favorites aren't smiling but that look of just inner peace and happiness.

Thank you guys for spending your Sunday morning with me I really enjoyed getting to know your family!

The Newest Royalty...

This little Italian Princess was my most recent newborn session! Baby Gianna is 11 days old in these shots and already a little model! She of course didn't want to sleep at first but, with some help from Mom and Dad we were able to get her warm and sleepy! Big brother Dawson went on a walk with Dad while Mom and I got to work! Gina you were so good with the heater and staying out of the shot I may have to have you come along with me on all my newborn sessions...lol. I had so much fun with the family and really enjoyed Dawson and Gianna...they are absolutely BEAUTIFUL children! So happy they have found a home here in Dublin and I really look forward to seeing the kids as they get older!! Thank you for letting me spend a few hours with your family during the hectic time of having a new baby in the house!

Abby and Chase

I had the pleaseure of meeting up with Abby and Chase along with their parents last Sunday at Everal Barn in Westerville! Chase was great always smiling and wanting to pose for the camera! At the end he even thanked more for taking his picture! I thought that was so sweet!! Abby wasn't as thrilled about getting her picture taken but equally as adorable as her brother! I think once she forgot I was following her around with a camera she actually started to enjoy herself! I think she may have broken her own rule of no smiling for pictures : )

Carson!

Meet Carson! He's 8 days old and such a sweet little guy! Him and his big sister Karina were so much fun! When I got there Carson was getting ready for his big photo session so he wouldn't be hungry and I decided to try win Karina over with my iPhone! I mean what 18 month old wouldn't love you if you gave them your cell phone! We turned on some music and had a mini dance party! She was so much fun and sweet as can be! At one point I asked her if she could give Carson a kiss and made the smacking sound of a kiss with my lips and she smiled at me, then walked over and gave me a big kiss! It was just too sweet!! You can already tell she's going to give Carson a run for his money but, she's going to be an awesome big sister!

Kim and John thank you so much for letting me come to your home and spend some time with your family! You have such a loving family and beautiful children! Congratulations we are so happy for you!!
