So this winter has been pretty lame. & I've loved every second of the snowless sunshine. It finally snowed about a week ago and I'm so over winter. Ready for spring...who's with me? So in the spirit of moving on, I'm going to blog from a fall session...I'm a little backwards. I know. What gives?!

This family was not only on the extreme ends of handsome and drop dead gorgeous, but so much FUN!!

Am I the only one who thinks someone did a casting call for the perfect looking family and got these guys to fill the spots?!

I want you guys to get ready, for one of the world's cutest little guy's EVER. His smile makes me giggle and grin. How could it not? He also has a very awesome name...the same name I plan to name a boy if I ever have one, and if I can get my husband to 'agree' (like the parenthesis)? LoL. BUT, that name is a secret...unless of course you know or are a member of this family.

 And the other cutest little guy ever...in the same family. Go figure. I loved watching him interact with his dad. Mastercard...watch out...talk about priceless!

 Okay, so this is killer eyes, hair, skin and bod Brooke with her husband, who reminds me of some rocker from a band who's name I don't know. Not a bad thing. Unless it's N*sync, I won't remember the band name, end of story. Haha I'm only kidding. Kind of. ;)   I'm crossing my fingers I get to do a creative shoot with her this winter before the photography 'season' picks up again..keep your fingers crossed for me, and keep an eye out for the session to be posted/blogged!

This momma-sita has 4 kids. I repeat FOUR children. That's 4 as in f.o.u.r.   I know exactly what you're thinking, and I couldn't agree more. SO. NOT. FAIR.

 Wilcox family, you were awesome, and I'm so glad I got to meet all of your beautiful faces to envy for a long time to come! I hope I get the privilege of taking your photos again! Now, off to do yoga so I can someday, maybe, be half as cute!

The weather forecast for the day of this session was 50*, partly sunny..pretty great fall weather wouldn't you agree? ESPECIALLY for pictures! Well, as it turns out, the weather man is a liar, and probably on Santa's naughty list for being so dishonest. I mean come on...How does he get that, when in all actuality it was the absolute coldest day of the year to date. No, no. So far. Even in December, I can honestly say, that day was the coldest day of the year. Poor kids were such great sports to smile while their bones were in the process of freezing..Maybe my running make up from my watering eyes gave them a good laugh...I got in the car and just about had a heart attack from the ridiculousness that was me. Now, I wear waterproof mascara on top of the normal, non clumpy stuff.  :)

Pretty sure that is my favorite 'dog pile' I've done so far..They are all so stinking cute and I am in LOVE with the colors!!

 Ahhh... Mom shared a love for pictures of feet..When she told me she wanted one, I was more than ecstatic!

 After about 30 minutes of picture take/body freezing...the family got some hot cocoa to drink on the porch. I absolutely love the fun family moment/interaction in these..I wish I could blow it up on my wall at home...which may be awkward since it's not my family..but that's how much I love it!  :)

Thanks Swainston Family for freezing for the camera. You guys were great!

I had so much fun taking this family's photos!  I got to meet them down South, at a brand new location, which I LOVED. Not to mention it was a pretty popular place for other photographers! Mom is a photographer herself, so she did an awesome job with color cordination, poses, and the location of course.  It's so nice to work with someone who thinks along the same lines I do during the shoot (lighting, etc). She gets me.  ;)

The first few pictures posted, I had a little fun with the sun...

 Gorgeous couple? or gorgeous couple? Yeah, I totally agree.

 I can not get over little sister's AMAZING eyes!!  Pretty sure I love this photo so much, it's going on the website. Who am I kidding? I love a lot of these, and they're all going on the website.

 A little sisterly love, behind the scenes style of course!

 HUGS!

K guys, you were awesome. I hope you love these pictures as much as I do! I hope I get to work with your adorably beautiful family again in the future!

Awwww...Aren't they cute? Probably the best dressed kids in town. Every. Single. Day. of the year! Seriously, mom knows her stuff.  I'm fairly sure I copy about half of little girly's outfits for my little girly just a few months younger.  Thanks mom, for letting me be a copy cat, a fashion shadow, etc.

Dad found this AMAZING location. Pretty sure the picture just below, is my absolute favorite.  They got the ideal fall day.  Not too cold. Bright beautiful colors. Just the right amount of clouds floating by. They probably had a little lucky leprechaun stuffed in the back of the car or something..this NEVER happens, especially on picture day! Hah ha

This is the first time mom wore skinny jeans..she was worried about how they'd look. Which is rediculous. She's skinny. They were made for people like her. She rocked them. I envied her. The end.

Thanks Shanna for having me 'shoot' your family. Ha! I can't wait to see the prints up in your pretty new house!
