Jon and Kealy {anticipation}

I met Jon several years ago at my other *full-time* job (in case you were not aware, I work full time in occupational therapy).  Since then, I have gotten to know Jon and, thru our conversations, his wife, Kealy.  When he told me they were expecting their first child, I could not have been more happy for them!  I was also excited to finally get a chance to meet the love of his life, Kealy, who he talks about so endearingly.  Sorry, Jon, I am going to ruin your "macho man" front.  :P   A few weeks ago, I was invited to photograph their family in the anticipation of the arrival of their little one.  I always get a little nervous (good nervous, probably more anxious) going into photo sessions, but that nervousness quickly subsided due to Kealy and Jon's fun, chatty, kind personalities.  We had a blast at this session and they played along with whatever idea I had.  Even if it met that Jon had to move forward-backward-forward-backward until he was just right for a shot (and, I may have thrown in a few "forward-backwards" just for fun.  :)  Thank you both so much for inviting me into your home and for sharing this special moment with you!  Can't wait to meet your little one in a few weeks!

Did I mention they went along with all my ideas, even the cheesy ones?  :)

It was really important to them to get a couple photos with their *first baby* Tyson.  He was quite the model!

Trivi's 2nd Birthday

I recently photographed little Trivi this past winter and-WOW-has he matured so much in the past few months!  Little Trivi just turned two and had quite the turnout for his party to celebrate this special day.  Here are a few photos from his very special party.  Trivi, you are loved so much and by so many people.  Happy Birthday!

luciano {newborn}

I am pleased to present Luciano, one of the most handsome newborn fellas I have ever had the opportunity to photograph AND Notre Dame's biggest fan.  This little guy slept like a rock for most of his session and was quite cuddly to hold between shots.  I probably could have stayed there all day cuddling and cooing with him!  Well, maybe not all day--mom and dad may have issues with a strange girl sitting on their couch all day with their new baby.  :)  Thank you for letting me into your home to share your joy with you! 

Doss {wedding}

I have a few minutes to post some photos from yesterday's wedding.  The full blog post will come later.  Enjoy!
