The S Family
The weekend after Thanksgiving I took some photos for my aunt and her family. It was good practice for me to have three kids (age 6 and twins, age 4) to wrangle, and they got some great photos out of the deal! Check out this gorgeous family...

Jessica, Andrew, and Daniel
Today I had the pleasure of taking photos for some of my favorite people in the world. Although I'm getting ready to head out of town, I had to take a look at them before I left and couldn't resist editing a couple for the blog. I hope you guys like them - I know most people will like the first one, but the second is actually my favorite. :)
What to Wear
I often get the question "What should we wear?" and my sister suggested I do a post showing some ideas. I like to tell people to coordinate but don't be too matchy - I personally am not a fan of the everyone in white shirts and khaki pants look. Change it up a little and show your personality!
This first look is one I came up with as an example for a family with two kids (one girl, one boy). I like the neutral base with a fun pop of color (the pink on the gray shirt and the pink sweater).
Here's another look, this time for two adults (maybe for the casual portion of an engagement session).
This third look is for a session for just two children (no adults).
The last option is if you want to be a little more adventurous and try mixing prints. Just make sure that everything is in the same color family (such as the ivory, grey, red, and black in this set).
Hopefully this post gives you a few ideas for your future photo sessions. One last suggestion (especially if you have little ones) is make sure they are comfortable in what they are wearing, and dress them in clothing you don't mind them running around in and maybe even getting a little dirty. I've had clients doing everything from sitting on some old tires, putting their feet in a fountain, as well as just sitting on the (still slightly wet) grass for a few shots - so don't wear something that you'd be horrified to sit on the ground in. :)

The M Family
On Sunday afternoon I took some photos for my friend Stacy and her husband Matt, along with their adorable puppy Mocha (she's Einstein's girlfriend by the way). Here are some of my favorites from the shoot!
The E Family
This morning I met the E family for some family pictures, as well as a few individual ones for their son Ronan who turned one this fall. I tried to keep the session short because the little guy wasn't feeling well, but I still think we got some really cute pictures. It was a pleasure meeting you guys, thanks for giving me the opportunity to take your photos! I hope you like your sneak peek...
Abby and Nick
This weekend I took some photos for my sister and her fiance so they could make their Save the Dates. I hope you guys like this sneak peek! (Hint...you can see a few more by clicking HERE.)
Logan
Yesterday afternoon I had the pleasure of taking this little guy's 1 year photos. I don't think I've ever met such a happy baby and I came home from the shoot saying "maybe I should have one!!". He's definitely going to be a heartbreaker someday, just look at those gorgeous blue eyes!

Happy 1st Birthday Logan!

Allie
Allie's mom asked me to take some photos of her before her 2nd birthday. We had fun running around the Liberty Center, and she especially loved playing in the water at the end of the session (and didn't want to get out!!). Here are just a few of my favorites.
This one is definitely my favorite of the entire shoot. What a cutie (love that plaid hat too)!!

Sam
My little brother Sam just turned 5, so my mom asked me to take some photos of him. He's kind of a ham when it comes to getting his picture taken, but here are a few that I love.
