I photographed these two a few years ago and, I know I say this often, but wow, how they’ve grown!!! It was so much fun to see them and get to play in my studio and let their personalities shine! We had fun - sis was into all my Christmas gear and we let her have at it!
I think this is going to be a top fav for some time!
This was my first time doing this and I’ll definitely be back next year! So much fun to see so many people gathered for such a great cause in the early am hours of Thanksgiving day. I have to say too, it totally beats bumming around Thanksgiving morning because when the meal arrives later, ya don’t feel so bad chowing down!! LOL
here’s me with the peeps (Alicia, Darcie & Debbie and moi!) and oh yeah, that would be a BURN mark on my forehead!!! thank you curling iron. 
here’s the girls struttin their stuff in the gorgeous fall colors! that’s it - next year fall sessions to take place at Sac State! I’ve found the goods!! (fall colors).
Thankful…
Wishing you all a beautiful, warm, love-filled Thanksgiving!
And speaking of that gorgeous Cali sun…
I think we picked the windiest day possible for this session but we prevailed and it was fun as it always is with this beautiful, sweet, giving family. You see, this is also the owner of my twins preschool. It’s also where my older daughter attended prior to kindergarten and to me, it’s almost like another home. I love the preschool. I love the kids. I love the people (mother/daughter team - daughter seen here) who run it because they run it with all heart, magical teaching skills and kindess that reaches past the students to parents and family. I say this to them all the time but for public record, I do not know what I’d do without them. And being that we’re headed into a day of thanksgiving, I’ll just say - I’m so, so thankful my life crossed into their preschool so my kids could know the beauty and wonder of learning in such a loving environment. And I’m so thankful to know and be continually inspired by two such giving, strong, amazing women.
I lovveeeee this one!
This little guy has warmed my heart from the first time I met him. He has the most open, sweetest smile and a personality to match. I always look forward to seeing him - and his mom because we do great mom talk. Rather, I soak up all her good knowledge when I see her - I love the way she looks at parenting and we agree on so many things. It’s always a fun session all the way around and this time was no exception. Thanks A and M for a great morning!
no, I’m not cruel and I don’t encourage crying in the studio! but little man here had a tiny melt down at the end that resulted in a few tears…I asked mom for permission before taking this picture and even though it’s a sad face, I think it’s kind of a cute face…
