Sam {class of 2011}

{class of 2011} Tori

{then comes baby} Laila.

this is laila. i consider her my niece. her mama is my best friend.
i am so excited to see what this little bundle grows up to be, but for now we get to enjoy her cuteness to it's fullest and her big blue eyes!

Katie {just because}

Katie is a gem.
Her brown eyes are incredible.
Her heart is made of gold i am pretty sure.
Her Mama requested photos that captured those things.
i did my best, but it was really Katie who ROCKED this shoot...
enjoy!

Jesse & Taylor {baby bump}

sometimes i have the privileged to take pictures of my two favorite people and their little miss who is still cooking! I am incredibly thankful for Jesse and Taylor and the rich friendship they have graced my life with. Little Laila is keeping us waiting (& guessing) on her arrival time, but we are all THRILLED to meet her!!!

here's a little sneak peek at the {baby bump} shoot i did a couple weeks ago...

i think they are in love and they are totally giving it away with those incredible smiles!!!
