Dore Family Session - Kiley

What a joy-filled session I had with the Dore family! It was my privilege to photograph this adorable, young family. What a treasure to capture the moments with a new baby girl, an energetic, happy 2 year-old and a loving young couple. Happy Christmas to Becca, Greg, Connor and Kiley!

To start things off...the precious baby girl, Kiley. What a sweetheart. We realized mid-session that it was Kiley's one month birthday! Baby yawns, fresh skin, tiny grins and itty-bitty fingers and toes make shooting a newborn oh-so-wonderful. Welcome to this world, Kiley Anne Dore!

Dore Family Session - Sweet Family

I loved capturing Becca and Greg loving their children so sweetly. Kiley is just a little cuddle-bug and Connor, despite the energy, loved taking a second to hug or kiss mommy or daddy.

Finally...Mister Connor and I had loads of fun. Becca was so sweet to send me a text the next day saying that Connor asked when I was coming back! Here are just a few photos of how awesome this playful little guy is.

Christina and Kyle

Christina and Kyle are sweet as can be. I had loads of fun when shooting their session on a beautiful Saturday morning. Their adorable love and excitement for the future shown through each photograph. God has truly blessed them with each other. I'm excited to reveal a little sneak peak of their oh so cute engagement session...

Bella

Warning: If you remind me I'll be leaving these little models in two weeks I will burst into tears instantaneously.

BellaBellaPumkinella, as I like to call her. She can be defined by her hugs: incredibly energetic, lovable beyond words, and contagiously joyful.

(We also call her Monkey. She's a climber.)
