Mr. S Turns One! {Arkansas Child & Birthday Photographer}

Thursday night I got to go to a birthday party for a good friend of mine.  Mr. S. turned 1!  We love him for many reasons, but one is because he and Andrew share a birth date.  :)  His favorite movie is "Cars" and so his parents had the idea to turn a normal yard into Radiator Springs.  They pulled together all kinds of details that did just that, including a GIANT birthday cake that was designed to look like R.S.  We had a blast spending the evening celebrating this little boy's birthday.  Thank you James and Ashley!

Enjoy!

 

That's how you eat a birthday cake!

Everyone gets tired of having icing on their face.

You guys throw a great party!

Grow Baby Grow! {Arkansas Maternity & Baby Photographer}

Just in case some of you do not know, I have a session plan for the journey of your child's first year of life. It is call the SPROUT PLAN.  This plan allows you to have professional photos from very key times during that wild and crazy first year.  When I was pregnant, everyone told me how quickly this first year would go by...and they were right!  I am sure you will love to be able to flip back through this very special time.  This is a great gift to give expecting mothers and fathers!

Sprout Plan: $720
(5 5x7 or wallet sets and 1 8x10 from each session)

*Bun in the oven (Maternity: 7-9 months pregnant)

*Brand new (Within the first 10 days of life)

*6 months

*12 months

Glen + Kirstin {Arkansas Engagement Photographer}

I had the opportunity to step outside of my "child/family photographer" role to do an engagement session with some of our good friends.  I was very honored when Glen and Kirstin asked me to do their engagements.  They are such a beautiful couple inside and out.  There are just some people who seem to just fit and I get that feeling from these two.  They will be such a powerful force for God's kingdom! 

We had fun walking around downtown Searcy and just picking out different spots.  One of the funniest moments of the day was when one of the radio personalities shouted from across the street about how Glen's hair was just fine (as Kirstin was fixing it).  We all got a kick out of that!

 Thank you Glen and Kirstin!

Enjoy!

This would be when our radio friend gave the shout out.

Wiggins Pups {Arkansas Pet Photographer}

Warning:  these little guys might just steal your heart.  On Saturday I met up with Gwen and Kerri and we took on a session with 12...count them 12...puppies!  They are only a month old and they squeaked like crazy.  It was adorable!  Kerri's 3 kids were there to help baby sit the pups, and man were they helpful!  I have told Andrew on more than one occasion, I would love to breed dogs because you get to play with them with they are cute and little and then they all go away :)  I think I am a little jaded by my very energetic lab.  I had such a fun time with all of you!  Thank you Gwen and Kerri.

Enjoy!

Mr. C {Arkansas Baby Photographer}

 The other morning I got to spend some time with a very special young man.  Mr. C has beautiful red hair and his mother liked the idea of dressing him up as a country boy/cowboy.  He reminded me so much of my sweet little Jack. :)  He was born about 6 weeks early and so he is just now up to speed with his due date, and man is he a healthy boy!  I love babies so much.  They are truly the most precious miracles on this earth.  Thank you Cory and Ang!

Enjoy!

Miss E. {Arkansas Newborn Photographer}

I was so excited when my good friend called me the other day to come take some newborn pictures of their sweet new Miss E.  She is just simply perfect from her head to her toes.  She did very well and didn't put up much of a fight all afternoon.  You might recognize her parents, I took some maternity pictures for them a while back.  You can see those here.

Thank you so much Josh and Jessica!

Enjoy!
