Maternity: Lifestyle session

I hope you all have had some great holidays and made some great family memories this season. My family and I have been on the go and I feel like we never really got to enjoy it this year which was a bummer, but we were together and that is all that mattered.
Before the holidays came I had one last session and it is one of my favorites to shoot, maternity! Angelique wanted some skin to skin shots and belly shots so we did more of a lifestyle session to start but were able to head outside and get a few. And they live just a hop skip and jump by the seawall! I was really pleased that we were able to get a few outside!

A fresh start

I've only been able to meet up with one of the winners thus far for my Christmas give away. When I walked up to the house I immediately recognized her face. We graduated together in 2004! This past year has been really rough for her and her family with a house fire among other things. Her parents lost all of their family photos so I am extremely thrilled to be able to give some new memories!
Erin it was soo good catching up a little, Merry Christmas!

The beautiful Ava Marie Torkos

One thing I know for certain tonight is, I love babies! And the one thing I do not, is if my oldest Abigail will fall asleep with her precious tiggy blanket! My husband left it in the van!!
Here is the Miss Ava Marie Torkos. I met up with Amber and her family in the fall to do her maternity/family session which you can find here. Ava was born early and I had the pleasure of meeting her in person a few weeks ago. Congratulations Amber and Lance!

Lewang Family Session

Remember baby Lucas? Well here's the whole family and look how much Lucas has grown from the time I did his newborn photos here. It always amazes me how fast our children grow. I don't see it as much with my kiddos because I am around them all the time and it's only until I look back at photos that I truly see and appreciate time.

 

 

A Christmas feel

Back in the summer I did Lydene's maternity/family photos which you can find here. Since Adam is now born they wanted just a little mini session to get some family photos with him in them. I love this family and I am so glad I have gotten to know them over the past year. We first met in church and Lyndene was really supportive at the end of my pregnancy last year. We are now in the same care group! Yay!

baby Lucas

I met this little guy back in September. His mom wanted these photos to be a surprise for her husband so I never posted any in case through the grape vine he stumbled upon them. I met up with the whole family this past weekend and got the privilege of doing some family photos with them as well, which I will post later. For now check out baby Lucas!
