Congratulations, April & Jeremy!

You guys were right! And thank you so much for letting me hold your surprise for just a LITTLE bit longer. I know it wasn’t easy. But I hope it was worth it. So happy for you both!!!

June Surprise Session!

It’s been way too long since I’ve done a Surprise Session… so I’m gonna do it a little different this time. That’s the fun part about being me, I get to make up the rules of this blog.

I’m going to host TWO surprise mini-sessions on this round… and here’s how it’ll work:

Leave a comment on this blog post telling me why you want to win
You must be available one weekday evening NEXT week (June 27-July 1)
Winners will receive a 30-minute mini (your session fee will be waived)
Surprise mini’s will result in approximately 5-10 images (prints/products available for purchase, same as always)
Winners will be chosen sometime Monday morning, June 27th!

Who can enter?

Surprise mini-sessions are applicable only to 1-2 subjects (HS senior, child, couple, siblings, etc)
Does NOT apply to newborns

That’s it. Seriously, that’s all you gotta do. Just leave me a comment if you meet the above criteria! Oh, and if you want to win.

In celebration of this awesomeness, I leave you with a super cute picture of Miles from when we were hanging out a few weeks ago, like we do. Just because no post is really complete without a photo, you know… and because he’s cute. Even when he’s sick. And even when he’s army-crawling into a prism. Word.

I was going to title this post Expecting Luke-Wyatt-Easton-Levi… but I didn’t. Because that’s too many words for a blog post title, you know? And who wants to bog down a blog post title like that? Not me. I’d rather just stuff in a huge bunch of photos from yesterday’s maternity session with this beautiful mom-to-be and her super sweet hubby…

So many fabulous images of these two… I can’t wait to show them the rest!

I’ve alluded to the fact that there’s a string of newborns on it’s way. And one of those precious little bundles can’t arrive fast enough for our family… his name is Miles. And he is loved already. By his parents, his big sister, his Gigi, his Unca, his Chris… but, especially by his Tah-Tah. I cannot wait to meet this little man (and to show him off to all of you).

T-minus 17 days & counting. We’re anxious to see you’re face, little nugget. (And Boo really can’t wait to pick your boogies, give you a bottle, and take your “pitchuh” with her camera)

I’m on a roll today! Two sessions posted in less than 24 hours? Say it isn’t so.

Gorgeous Michelle (and her awesome hubby Eric) and I shot these last Sunday. Isn’t she radiant?

If you look reeeeeeeally close in this next shot, you can actually see a photo of that little bundle she’s carrying! Come on… look close…

Yep! There he is. On the coffee table. He’s here, too:

Michelle & Eric – thanks for opening up your home to me and allowing me to be my ridiculously crazy self (I feel like we’re kindred spirits). And, most importantly, for giving me a reason to use the word radiant. It’s been on my list for awhile now. I hope you love these.

Sunday…

Just to bide time until appropriate attention can be given on this here blog to each of these fabulous families, I present to you my Sunday.

My Sunday started out like this…

And ended like this…

I heart Sundays.

Happy Father’s Day to these 2 fabulous dads, as well as my own… and to my hubby, who is the best dad I’ve ever known.
