I LOVE this season. The sites, the smells, the family gatherings, gift wrapping (Really. I love wrapping presents-if I may say so, I make some pretty fantastic bows).

I also love reconnecting with past clients; watching their kids grow, and meeting new families-and I met some of the NICEST people this year. I’m really excited to share a few of my favorite images from this season:

This one was Brian’s favorite – especially when Dante (white Mustang) took Brian out for a ride. Dina, their mom, wanted photos of each of her kids with their Mustangs. Brilliant!

Little Charlotte and Myra:

Can you believe that this is the same girl? What a difference a year makes.

And talk about growing up! I’ve been lucky enough to photograph Sydney and Spencer from the time that Sydney still needed a little help sitting up. And this year, she was running, jumping, and accessorizing! (And Spencer was helping with the shoot!)

And Bella and Dean? Well, go to the second row of this section of my website. Now check this year’s session out:

I can’t forget Hallie and Colin (remember that little girl on the left?):

I also met some of the sweetest kids this year.

Little Alex (whose mother referred me to the BEST sitter ever. We’re talking “friendly and effective extra grandma” sitter, people):

Mackenzie, Drake, and Brandon:

Lily, Andrew, and David:

And, well, little Ian:
