A Gorgeous Family - Quad Cities Family Photographer

What a gorgeous evening for a session with this gorgeous family!  Not only are they beautiful, but I adore how they were styled for their session.  Kelly is a pro at styling her girls (and herself!).  It was fun to see how much the girls have grown and changed since last year.


Picture perfect...


LOVE...


This ranks right up there with one of my favorite family shots I've taken.  This is strange for me too because my favorites tend to be much more candid, but there is something about this shot that I just love!


These beautiful sisters are truly perfect for pictures...always cooperative and always smiling and look at them...they are gorgeous and cannot take a bad picture!









We had some fun during the session too! :)  
I love this cute shot!


Thank you all for spending some time with me!  You are such a beautiful family...I can't wait for you to see all of the pictures!

The Castaneda Family - Quad Cities Family Photographer

I love this family.  Aside from the fact that they are so adorable, they are so fun and full of personality too!  And having boys myself, I always love photographing families with boys...


Boymom...


All of the handsome men of the family...


Evan...big brother....


Alex...Mr. Personality...


Nicholas...little sweetie...


Ari...the baby...


Gorgeous brothers...



I love this shot of Salvador and Jessica!


I was so thrilled when Jessica asked to get individual pictures with each of her boys.  I think that these pictures are so sweet and so special for Jessica and the boys to have!





You don't get much more gorgeous than this...




Thank you so much Castaneda Family for being such a blast photograph!  Can't wait for you to see all of the pictures!

A Super Fun Family - Quad Cities Family Photographer

This session was so much fun!

I love doing pictures of extended families and this one did NOT disappoint!

Let's just get right into it...we started with some super "fancy" and fun shots!  I'm all about having fun and being crazy for pictures and this crew broke the ice right out of the gun!

I loved it!


 We had to get all the girls together all fancy...check out Nana's fancy ring!

 After all of the fancy jewels and scarves came off, we still had fun. :)


3 generations...I am in love with this...


There was no shortage of smiles and laughter and personality from this crew...pretty much makes my job the easiest job in the world!


It helps when 2 beautiful sisters are my subjects too...




Strong and beautiful girls!


Candid family photos are my favorites!


Anniversaries all around in this family...




Such a fun evening with a gorgeous family!


Thank you so much for making my job easy!  I can't wait for you to see ALL of the pictures.  I love so many of them, I could have shared 50 more, but I'll save some for you to look forward to!  I had so much fun spending time photographing you all, what a gorgeous family you are inside and out!

The Mail's Maternity Session - Quad Cities Maternity Photographer

Carrie was glowing on the gorgeous evening I photographed her and Eric.


They made my job so easy...even dealing with the crazy bugs to get the shots!









They will soon be meeting their baby boy and you can just feel the excitement!




It was so great to meet you both and I can't wait for you two to meet your new little man!  Congratulations to you and best wishes as you enter this new chapter in life!
