Love this family and the craziness that always accompanies their session.  Because with triplet boys, thing are bound to get just a wee bit nuts!  This was my third session with them, Belle is one of my besties from high school and has lived all over the place. Whenever she is in town we always get together and sometimes we get to shoot her sweet little (big) family!  This time we kept it simple and shot in her parent’s backyard.

These boys are FANTASTIC. I love how different AND how alike they are.  Kids are born with their own little personalities aren’t they?

There was a LOT (a WHOLE LOT) of wrestling and a lot of dancing going on throughout the session! Because wrestling and dancing always go hand in hand right?

There were also a LOT of hugs! Bunny hugs, Mom/Dad hugs, triplet hugs…

Mom and Dad promised a water fight if the boys behaved and since they were SUPER awesome for the session, their wish was granted!

Love you Belle (and family!!)

I LOVED this session. The light was SO challenging… it was SO bright and bouncing all over the place, but I just love how these turned out for this sweet sweet family!!

These two have been best friends since kindergarden! They wanted something funky and urban, some pictures together, and some apart.

Why yes, I DO have this chair in my living room. Found it at an antique show and that’s original crushed velvet baby! I love it so much.

Their connection is unreal! Love these girls!!

Bluebonnets are the state flower of Texas. Every year, thousands of families and photogs bring their cameras out into the bluebonnet fields to snap away in the bluebonnet fields that just pop up along the side of the road.  I didn’t plan these bluebonnet photos, but so glad I found a few- they match her eyes exactly! How awesome is THAT?

Um, hellllloooooooo modern Audrey Hepburn!!!

I have to end this post with this picture, because it has caused much laughter!  When I saw these suits hanging up in their car prior to the shoot, I thought they had brought snuggies. They brought something much better. Matching Flying Squirrel suits! It’s an inside joke with these two. Love that!

We took the kiddos to the beach for the last day of Spring Break and it was not exactly freezing… but it was not warm either! Presley was NOT happy towards the end as the novelty of the ocean wore off and the cold set in!

I’ll be doing a number of beach sessions around the coasts of Texas this summer so shoot me a note if you might be interested in a family or child session! The sessions will take place both at the beach, as well as in town and at Pleasure Pier (if in Galveston). I’m also looking into doing part of the shoots on a sailboat- which I’m super excited about!  I expect these to fill up quickly, so get on it !!  It will be first come, first serve.

This was my second time to photograph this sweetie and she has just gotten more gorgeous with LOADS of personality! She rattled off some pretty awesome Dora quotations- I haven’t heard those in quite a while. I miss those days SO MUCH!

I am loving this color combo my client chose. This is a 20×30 framed print- which is going to look fabulous on her very large staircase wall!

For the past couple of years, I have tried to do a “love” shoot with my little team.  This year I was a few days late in pulling off the shoot, but hey, what can you do?

Here is their 2011 shoot. Clowns!

Here is their 2012 shoot:

This year, I had something kind of elaborate planned, but it didn’t quite work out, so I am saving that idea for next year .

Instead, I decided to do something simpler and have the kiddos spell out “l-o-v-e” in sign language.

Except for some reason, their little hands just wouldn’t form the letters correctly (likely on purpose!).

And the more frustrated I grew, the more they laughed. And laughed. And laughed.

Little stinkers.

While I had them all relatively clean and in a playful mood, I snapped some more pix. This location was found by Presley…love that my first grader was SO excited to tell me she found a new location for me to take pictures . She calls it the “Secret Garden.”

I think this next image needs to be a REALLY BIG CANVAS in their room since these two share a room.  You agree?

My kids LOVE climbing trees. No one has fallen out of one. Yet. I think Kaylee was looking up at a “buwd’s” nest when I snapped this. She still can’t quite pronounce her Rs (not that it bothers her when we tease her. Not much bothers this one. I often say I want to live in Kaylee-land )

Emily is always willing to let me take gorgeous head shots and I LOVE THIS ONE!

Aaaaannnnnddddddd they’re still trying to form those letters. Aaaannnnnddddddd still laughing at their mum.

This blog is under construction, so please ignore the grainy images and random  smiley faces. Have a good day!

I send out a questionnaire to clients prior to their session, and I’ve got to tell you- this was my absolute favorite one in terms of responses. Mom painted such a vivid picture of her little family with words- I just have to share because it was THAT awesome!

Description of the family (I kind of want them to adopt me):

Papa: super fun playful dad, he is our home monster, boy thrower, bath splasher, basketball dunker assistant, official fort builder, imaginary alligator and shark wrangler and PILLOW FIGHT instigator!

Kiddos: house monkeys, indoor soccer, basketball, baseball, golf and any other ball game imaginable players, cars cars cars, star wars light saber fighters, super lovable, huggable, kissable, ticklish bed and yes furniture jumping peekaboo kings!

MOM: human rock climbing wall, superman flying assistant, tickling and ticklish screamer, cuddly crazy dancing dizzy spinning uncontrollable hugger, kisser and just plain QUEEN!!

Mom is from Panama so she brought along some traditional clothing. When I asked her what Panama was like, she basically said it was paradise!
