Beautiful Bride

I had so much fun at a wedding I shot recently and am finally getting around to posting a couple of favorite images! I'm definitely engulfed in this project, but here's a sneak peak! She's gorgeous and the lighting was incredible!

Some Mornings

Since being off for the summer, it has been a blessing to spend time with my babies in the mornings. I've really had fun getting to know them again. Since my son is so young, it feels like I'm getting to know my little one for the first time. His personality is shining through and I've noticed a few things I've not noticed before. I wish I had written them all down--of course I keep telling myself I will--but then when I get around some paper and a pen a few days later, it's all gone! Boo. It gets mixed up in all that he is.
He definitely has a little attitude and fighting has been a "battle" to say the least. They had to get used to one another as well since during the days this past year, they were not seeing each other. Sad situation for a family! She is such a little mother and I noticed he will call her Mama almost as quickly as he calls me Mama. I looove the way he says "ball"; it's his favorite word and favorite toy for sure. He loves oatmeal in the morning and she...well...she doens't like breakfast food that much. The other day her uncle was perplexed by her decision to have a pb&j and some carrots for breakfast. I don't question anymore, as long as its healthy.
Learning to share has been the test of the summer for him. Learning to be a loving big sister without being overwhelmingly in his face has been her challenge. I often hear her say things like,"Here, come over and I'll brush your hair. Ok, you're all done. Ok. Stand right there. Ok, come over here and sit down with me. You're so cute! I love you so much. Let me touch your hair (it's soft). Please, come here and let me touch your hair!" Haha. He's only one and trying to figure out what this big sister's function is. Seems all she does sometimes is hug me and get me in trouble...

Here he is in the morning at breakfast. The second shot's focus landed on his hair, but I love his expression. :)
