A Perfect End to 2009!

What a way to wrap up shoots for 2009! I’ve been blessed to have known these boys since their birth, thanks to a great friendship with their parents. This gives me the unique joy of fully appreciating how much they have changed (in real life and from previous shoots). Now it may not be obvious to most, but I loved seeing their personalities in these pics. The shots where younger stands over and leans into older doesn’t surprise me in the way these two will certainly keep one another sharp. The sideways expression and occasional tiptoe shots are a classic look for older. The unprompted poses and facials of younger express a distinct independence. They are a blessing in our lives and obviously easy to photograph—nice work Mom and Dad (not to mention the unparalleled look of handmade sweaters by Mimi K)!

Be sure to check out the video below for some more great shots!

THANKFUL

It's nearly despicable how long it has been since I blogged, especially since I have worked with so many great blog-worthy families in the last four weeks! So, in an effort to share shots I love without spoiling any Christmas gifts, here are a few favs tagged with my holiday thanksgivings:

Thankful for adorable baby feet...

Thankful for big sisters that love little brothers well…

Thankful for the double portion of new life. . . .

Thankful for brothers that argue in fun. . .

Thankful for energetic boys (makes me hunger to take more pictures of my own). . .


Thankful for good, quality food . . .

Thankful for my life and the opportunity I have to bless others with what talent God has given me.
