Amarillo Maternity Session

Posted on July 27, 2010

While dealing with insomnia and blog-hopping one night, I came across the Family blog of Luke and Cassie. I was immediately smitten and wanted BADLY to take maternity pictures of Cassie who was in her third pregnancy. I left a blog comment offering her a session and went on to the next blog not expecting to hear back. I was very surprised when she not only wrote back but also agreed to the session! Honestly, If that had happened to me I don’t think I would have trusted the wacko leaving random comments on my blog (not that I am a wacko, other people are wackos).

This was such a great and mellow family.  The children greeted me at the door and at once begin to tell me all about themselves and show me around. Although Cassies pregnancy was the focus for the session I had to grab a couple pictures of her super sweet daughter and son.

There was Mandie…And Matthew…

There was also major drama when a spider skittered across the floor. I think some kind of record was reached at the ear-piercing screeches that ensued. Luke showed up just in time to save the day and prove that Daddy-Long-Legs are not so bad after all…

See, proof that it was a maternity session. Maybe I got sidetracked with cute kids. Normal for me.

Here I am being sidetracked once again. Really, this family was so gracious to let me hi-jack their Saturday afternoon (and evening)…

Later in the evening after it cooled off a bit, Cassie met me at the uber-awesome location she picked out. Mandie came along and we had a very windy mini-session.

Cassie! Thank you so much for letting me take pictures of you and your sweet family. You all were so fun to work with and I appreciate you letting me into your home and giving me so much of your time! Congratulations on  baby Michael and I hope that my camera and I can be sidetracked by him in the near future!

Our Petite Vacation

Posted on July 5, 2010

Oh the grand posts that are in my mind for this blog. Really, I have all sorts of fun things planned. Finding the time to think them up is easier then finding the time to sit down and make them happen! We are off for our annual camping trip. I will be quite happy without my laptop, computer, cell phone, and all other modern technology (OK, well I will have my camera). Instead I will have books, books and more books. The amount of books I have packed is actually quite silly but shows that I do have a bit of an optimist in me. When I get back I have some Etsy vendors to showcase, weddings to post, and the rest from this delightful session…

Yes, pregnancy suits Cassie, although at this moment she is enjoying her newborn son. I have plenty more pictures of her and her sweet family to come.

Now, I am off to lay in a hammock and enjoy my books.
