Baby Brooke

I was so excited when The Harris Family told me they wanted to be a part of my baby club! You may remember Catriona, Mike, Reilly, and baby from this shoot.

Baby Brooke was born October 14th with dark hair and looked just perfect. Catriona emailed me shortly after (couple days) after she was born to schedule her shoot. That girl took no time to rest...haha. I was so honored to be asked and now as a part of our baby club, she gets 3 more shoots throughout the year and a pretty sweet storyboard at the end showing how much Brooke has grown throughout her 4 shoots!

Brooke's big sister Reilly is in some of these photos too, she is such a great big sister. I can tell they are going to be the best of friends!

Thanks again guys, I cannot wait to watch her grow with you guys over a year.

Enjoy <3

The Smokey Mountains


As many of you have read, my husband Brendan took me on a surprise trip for my birthday about 2 weeks ago. And because I have been slacking, they are just NOW being blogged...tsk tsk, I know.

Anyways, despite it being pretty cold at night (roughly 40 degrees and humid, so feels even colder), we camped. It wasn't too bad, but Ty (our 11 month old pup) was quite cold. He has never been out of Florida, so he wasn't used to feeling that coldness.

We grew up in Upstate NY so the cold is something we are used to, but sleeping outside in it was a different story. Overall though, it was beautiful to be up there and see all the wonderful colors.

Of course, here are some photos :)




Me and the pup

It was a potty break so he needed to let some energy out



Hubby and Ty



Cute family photo. I just had this one printed :)




We couldnt believe Ty was climbing because he's a little on the timid side, but he did GREAT!
