over the river and through the woods
A while back, I did my very first newborn session for a friend of ours whose daughter went to preschool with our son. Not too long ago, we all got together again fairly early in the morning at Pillsbury Crossing (a very cool little river crossing/wading area/waterfall spot) to do some more recent portraits of the kiddos. As you can see, young master D is a bit bigger than last time.

His big sister is just as cute as ever, though.

It was great to see how wonderfully they got along together.

Dad eventually showed up, straight from work, just to hang out with his family. I know one little boy who sure loves his daddy.

And one more. Just ’cause.

Thanks for such a fun time, guys! Can’t wait to see how big everyone is next time!
a complete surprise
Occasionally, in the life of every photographer (I hope), there’s one of those sessions, the ones where nothing seems to go right. I had one of those. The parents had driven a good distance to come out and shoot at Wamego’s City Park with their daughter and 16-month twins. Things went kind of rough. There were tears, temper tantrums, wanderlust…it felt a lot like this:

As I sat d0wn to edit the images, I expected to not have very much to work with, but was completely surprised. Apparently, I wasn’t paying attention to the rest of the session. You know, the part that ROCKED!



Turns out, it was kind of hard to choose what to edit!


Yes, the girls had dolls that matched their dresses. Adorable!

Where’s the baby? Peek-a…wait for it!

BOO!
Thanks so much for coming all the way out here, guys! Hope you had fun at the carnival afterwards!
