Matt, Susan, Landon, and Lauren.

How do photographers do it? How do they get the kids to look at the camera AT THE SAME TIME? I was never very successful. But I love this family, so that should be enough, right?

I feel like this was Lauren's modeling debut. I love this one. 

Told you so.

I don't know if I have ever been happier about leaf pictures. 

Joy.

He will beat her up and get upset with her, but he will always protect her. 

Hannah.

So, third time's a charm! It might have taken a bit longer than expected, but Hannah's shoot was so much fun! Holding on to the last shred of beautiful fall, we had a great time trying to smile through the slightly cold temperatures. I had some sun fun with these. Hope you enjoy the preview!

How cute is she?

Totally foxy.

Brandon.

I am a little behind schedule on my blog updates, but here are a few of Brandon, Mr. 1st-Team All-State. Brandon and I first met (although he doesn't know it) when he was five-years-old at Welcome Place Daycare, where I worked during the summer. He and Derek were two of my favorite kids, and only recently have I realized the long-term connection. However, having never had him in class, it was nice to get to know the him (post five-year-old) a bit while taking pictures in the cold. :-) So, here we go...a few for now.

I said he looked like the "All-American" athlete here. His response? "Well, maybe not All-American--just All-State." I think success has gone to his head.

Everyone loves a boy and his dogs.
