It doesn't come from me!

Musical ability that is...

All 3 of the kids take after Brent's side of the family and love them some music. :)

These pictures were from my favorite bay area field.  I don't have a field any more.  Now all I have is ocean.  I need to get there more often for pictures!!

love this one

of my kids from Hume Lake.  They are getting to where they are all close to the same height.  It's fun to have no more babies...they are big kids now.  Well, maybe I miss the baby stage a little. :)  I guess that's what newborn shoots are for.

Five years ago...

...I was sitting in a church pew with a rowdy toddler and a one month old watching Matt and Rachel get married.  Life has fast-forwarded and and now they have an adorable one year old and live by the beach in San Diego.

jackson

I got to take Jackson's pictures at Hume Lake just before his second birthday.  Last year I took his pictures  on his first birthday, so it was fun to see how much he'd grown.  Plus my kids are in love with him...more on that to come.
Here are a few of my favorite Jackson pictures:

Hudson

IMG_8727 Meet Hudson.  This might be the only sleeping picture I took during his photo session. :)  He was 3 weeks early and at just a month old, he's wide eyed and just about rolling over!

With Laura's help, we snapped a quick curled up baby picture before he squirmed away.

And here are a few family pictures with Hudson's very distinguished older brother, Mr. Fairbanks.

Belly Laugh

I admit it...sometimes I ask you to do something not just to get that on film, but the reaction to 'that.'
Here's an example:
IMG_8348
Jessica has a great smile, but I decide I want some more serious pictures of her, so I ask her to give me a really intense serious look.  We both start cracking up every time.  The result...a great picture. :)

I love this image, but couldn't decide...color or black and white??

Why???

...is it always the BOYS that have the long and luscious lashes? 
IMG_8466
I'm going through all my pictures from Hume Lake right now and saw this one of Cooper.  I'm wondering why it's the boys that seem to get all the good lash genes. :)

Great minds...

...think alike.  You know what they say.

When I downloaded this picture, I loved it.  There was just something about it that worked.  I took it right after Maile fell and hurt her knee.  Jackson had no idea what was going on and Hansel just looked at me with a knowing expression. 
Anyway, for some reason I love it when clients choose to order prints that are my favorites.  This print is enlarged on a storyboard in their home, which just makes me smile.

Toddler Bellies

There's nothing like a toddler sized belly.  The only time in life where it's cute to have a big round tum.

I miss all our small group friends!

Hair tip :)

These two are absolute sweethearts.  I'm so bummed to miss their wedding!  Not only did they give me an amazing photo session, but Joanna taught me how to do my hair like she does.  It takes practice, but you just wrap a small piece of hair around two fingers (like a pin curl) then take your flat iron and squish the hair in between for a few seconds.

Thanks for the tip, Joanna...I love your hair!
