McNiff Family






The location for this shoot was fabulous!! It was a perfect location for two little boys. We ran through fields, made wishes on dandelions, moo-ed with the cows, sat on tractor wheels, and laughed over the funny things boys do. Caleb is curious, on the move, and into everything!! He has the most beautiful blue eyes and sweet little grin. His big brother Ben is adventurous, independent, and all boy!!! He laughed only when we told him "You better not laugh!!!" Completely reminded me of my daughter Hannah. Colleen and Kyle are wonderful parents. I enjoyed watching this wonderful family interact with each other. I always enjoy being around them. Enjoy the pics!! -Loree

Commercial Shoot: Paula Prass for Michael Miller Fabrics - More to come!!






If your into sewing/fabrics you have definitely heard the name Michael Miller. Michael Miller is a huge name in the fabric world and I am excited to say that Paula Prass (of Paula Prass Designs and Mimi's collection) will be designing fabrics for this amazing company. I was thrilled when they asked me to shoot their first line of fabrics!!! I was able to get a sneak peek of her new fabric line "Flights of Fancy" while doing their session. I wanted to order one of every dress, pant set, twirly skirt, jacket, chair, pillow, etc..... Everything is absolutely stunning!!! The colors and prints are fun, fresh, and fabulous!!!! We had a wonderful time during our session (ok minus the gazillion mosquitoes!!!) Amelia and Elly were perfect little models. Paula and her daughter (Jennifer) are off to Houston right now setting up their booth for quilt market. Look for "Flights of Fancy" online and in stores this spring. To see more of Paula's work visit her website at www.paulaprass.com You can also check out her blog at www.paulaprass.blogspot.com

Miss Spunky (Amelia) and Mr. Calm (Wyatt)






I love these pictures. I know I am the photographer but I just really love the way these turned out. It helps that the kids are absolutely gorgeous. Wyatt is calm, cool, easy =) Amelia is spunky, full of personality, and fast as lightning =) The great thing is that they compliment each other. You can tell that they really love each other and are the best of friends. Jenny and Joe were great throughout the entire shoot. I think they were completely wiped out by the end of our session. I have known both of them since high school (I won't tell you how long that is!!) Let's just say we had our 15 year reunion last year (or was it two years ago). Anyway, we go waaaay back. Thanks for a great session. Enjoy your sneak peek!!

LeeLee's Mommy =)






I know I am going to embarrass Sunee but seriously, Is this girl gorgeous or what? She looks like a model. She asked me to take a few simple pics for her website. She needed a profile picture for her "about me" page. I had so much fun with her. She has such a sweet, caring, and compassionate heart. I had to post her pictures b/c I think the world of her. Thanks Sunee, Loree

Miss LeeLee






Oh how I love little Miss LeeLee!!! She is sweet, spunky, fun, and cute as a button. We had such a good time on this Urban photo shoot. LeeLee loved the red petti-skirt I brought her. She loved spinning and twirling in this "princess" skirt. We walked all around Mass avenue and she was such a trooper. Her personality kept me laughing all evening. She is a wonderful little girl. I think a lot of her parents as well. Her mom designed my blog and is in the process of designing my new website. Thanks Sunee!! Enjoy the pics =)

Baker Family






I had a great time taking pictures for this family. We headed downtown to the canal for our photo shoot. It was very hot!!! I was impressed at the endurance of the family and little Addison. We walked a long way and got some fabulous photos. I was happy that the weather (although hot) held out for us. The weather station predicted 80% chance of rain. Thank you Baker family for a wonderful session. Enjoy.

A few more of the Lancaster kids






I have known this family for a very long time. Arin and I used to have sleep-overs at our friend Tammy's house. We used to talk about what life would be like to be married. We also talked about having kids one day. I can't believe Arin has now been married almost 10 years!!! I remember when her first baby (Hayden) was born. He used to throw up on me every time I held him =) He was so sweet and so much smaller =) As you can see they have added two beautiful girls to the mix as well. Enjoy!!!
