Well, October 9th turned out to have some pretty nasty weather, so we waited a week for the 16th… and WOW… what a beautiful fall day we had!  It was well worth the wait.

First, I had the pleasure of meeting Chris, Amy and their almost 4 month old daughter Breanne.    They are an adorable family, and super relaxed in front of the camera.  Thanks for making my job so easy   Enjoy your sneak peak, it was hard just to pick a few!

Next up were the Berends kids..   they are quickly becoming regulars on my blog!  You’ll remember Esther’s senior session, and sweet baby Ty’s newborn session…  both within this past year.   Big bro Alec was home for the week for a break from college, and they were looking for an updated “kid” photo and some new ones of Ty, so we hooked them up with a mini-session.  Woot woot!  Enjoy!

First up, the little (st) man…  and his amazing, gorgeous Mama and sibs.

Good lookin’ bunch…  I know it wasn’t easy to get them all there in one piece Kar, but I know these pics will make it all worth it (and maybe also the dinner at Sonic that Reagan told me all about?!).

and just for fun…  these make me smile.

If you would like to still book a mini-session, I’ve decided to continue to offer them through mid-November.    Give me a shout!

As promised, it’s time for a full sneak peak on this little girl’s session from last Saturday.  She must’ve known it was my birthday and thought she would be perfect for me…  what a pleasure to photograph her.  I could’ve photographed those lashes for hours, they truly are amazing!   Thanks for coming guys, it was so nice to meet you all.  This little girl will be well protected by her big brothers… 

Enjoy!

Perfect eyelashes, perfect little lips…  sigh.

Kali and her pretty mama…

This daddy’s love for his little girl was pretty evident every time he looked at her… so sweet!

seriously – I can’t even handle her adorableness!

Kali’s big brothers were also very captivated by their baby sister, she is so obviously loved!

Rota family, we’ll be in touch soon!

I will do a full sneak peak on this session later, but for now I just HAD to post this…  umm..  HELLO lashes!  Say what?!

Also – reminder – mini sessions are on Saturday!  I have a few spots available still, I’d love to fill up the day   Please send me an email ASAP, and let all of your friends know.  It would also be a perfect senior picture opportunity…    so don’t be shy!  The fall colors at Hovander should be beautiful!  For more info about the mini sessions see my blog post from a few posts back…

Now, I was supposed to be cleaning my bathrooms and making dinner.  Oops!   Stay tuned for more of this little beauty.
