The Mirabella Boys

I've been photographing this family at least a couple of times a years for several years now. I'm so lucky that they still keep coming back to me time and time again because I just love seeing them!!!

Mom brought props along....which I love! Makes the session more unique and special for them! She brought along their favorite "toys". I love that she brought their bunnies to be photographed with before they are too old for them and have totally forgotten about them :)

Here are a few of my favorites....enjoy! 

The Petry Family

I photographed the family on the right years ago and had such a fun time with them! I was super stoked when they contacted me again, but this time to photograph the whole extended family!  They've gotta be the sweetest people alive...all of them :)

Here's my favorites from their session..enjoy! 

The Alonge Family

I know I've already said this before, but man I've really been lagging on the blog lately! I'm sorry!!! Having the 2 kids home this summer really took all my time away from blogging, but I'm working on getting some up this week for ya ;)

Here's the first one up! This was my first time meeting these guys and I fell in love with their little family! So adorable and all so sweet!!  

Here are a few of my favorites from their session! enjoy! 

Make Over Monday

This summer is flying by, and once my oldest is back to school I will have more time to work on being more regular here on the blog :) 

This week's Make Over Monday is of this sweet lil boy with his daddy! 

I first brought the image into Lightroom. I adjusted for exposure, color and contrast and then I cropped it a bit. I almost never crop images, but this one was in need of it. I then brought it into Photoshop and sharpened it....tada....here it is!
