M by the water

Home for the Holidays!

How lucky is this family? Everyone is home from the far reaches for Christmas!

We loved how this daddy spoke to his baby girl in his beautiful Danish language

and called her "lovey"! How adorable is she?!

J, A, and little Ms. E

Seriously - the smartest kids we have ever met!

Some of the things that come out of Ms. J's mouth are GREAT!

And, Thanks Mr.A for teaching us the "Yo Ho Ho" Pirate song!

Sassy!

I can't quite remember, but I think this look was about not wanting to wear that vest!

Once we had her remove it, she was like a little model with all of her poses!

We have photographed her and her big brother several times -

but this year we got the new puppy too! Adorable!

Hillbilly Christmas continued

This family sure knows how to have fun! Every year their Christmas card has a different theme - this year was no different.

We were thrilled to be invited to take these photos - it certainly was one of our most interesting shoots!

Every few frames, I would catch one person or another doing something silly - like pretending to be picking lint out of their belly button - and I would have to stop for a second to laugh!

Everyone was in character and they were a hoot!

We can't wait to see what is in store for next year!

A true beauty

This girl is so fun - she laughs a lot, is kind to others and is beautiful inside and out! This was a quick 30 minute shoot in the cold , damp weather - but we love the light and the color it gave us. Isn't she just a cutie?!

Butler family Sneak...

Hillbilly themed Christmas cards this year? Sounds good to us!

More pics to come

PAINT!

One of our more silly and REALLY MESSY shoots to date! These girls laughed pretty much the entire shoot - It was a great afternoon of fun and photos!

ITS CHRISTMAS TIME AGAIN!!

Don't ask us how many times we barked or growled or yipped or howled to get that adorable little puppy, Rozie, to look at our cameras! The answer would be - so many times that we couldn't possibly tell you!

Sports

We LOVE to catch an athlete - especially these young ones in action.

The dust flying off of the ball just as it makes contact with the bat, the beads of sweat dripping down an exhausted players face - OOH! how we love capturing those moments!

Here are a few recent shots...
