Betsy’s family…not mine

Here’s my latest final images for my new friend Betsy and her oh so adorable family. You will notice, when you aren’t amazed at how photogenic these kids were, that the property we were shooting was beautiful. Let me list all the awesome things we got to shoot on and around: an awesome tree swing,…

    Oh my gosh I think I would be scared to death in a cornfield after being scarred for life by “Children of the Corn”!

    Gorgeous, gorgeous pictures!

    The corn shots rock! I love the one that you can just see the girl with everyone else! Awesome!

kiss my grits

Here’s a little peak into out costumes from last night’s costume party. Anybody remember the ancient show “Alice?” Well I was “Flo” or at least my own version of Flo. It was a FUN costume that I made from a dress I found in the clearance rack at H&M (that was a size too small!),…

random thursday

I’ve been in a little bit of a roller coaster of emotions lately. One minute I’m totally in the moment of enjoying this amazing fall weather and my beautiful family. The next minute, I’m FREAKING out about my workload, lack of time to do it in and don’t even get me started on my lack…

    glad you are feeling better. days like that are no fun. Miles is so precious, and I love the action shots. Oh, and I love your random blogs. They make me smile. 🙂

  • annieOctober 24, 2008 - 8:12 am

    so much to comment on -sorry things are icky as of late – you’ll trudge through and getting out in cowboy boots isn’t a bad start.

    second – sorry to tell you, but Miles is starting to look like a little boy -even with those squishy cheeks. so bittersweet – as they get bigger – i look at Jon and I can see my fuzzy baby with the big cheeks and dark eyes – but he’ nearing 7 and I can see the young man he’ll be. don’t even get me started on the other two!

    third – the tea rocks – thank you for exposing me to it – after your house last summer I bought some and never looked back.

    have a great weekend! take care!

  • KristinOctober 24, 2008 - 10:55 am

    Cheer up, lovie! Hopefully the three of you are enjoying this rainy day!!

  • saraOctober 24, 2008 - 12:05 pm

    Miles is too stinkin’ cute I can’t stand it! And btw you looked pretty darn cute yesterday too!

  • ChristinaOctober 24, 2008 - 3:50 pm

    Awww — those cheeks of Miles’ are too cute 🙂

    I’m with you on the high waisted jeans — I need to get me some! My bro, when he helps me, always starts clearing his throat when my back becomes visible. When he’s not around to help, I just have to wear baggy tees to avoid it!

  • AmithaOctober 24, 2008 - 4:45 pm

    Just when I think Miles can’t get any cuter…he does! I can’t tell you how much Steve and I have been enjoying the pictures of the sweet pugs!! Please keep them coming Bets!!

  • AndreaOctober 25, 2008 - 1:31 am

    I love your random posts Betsy! Oh my gosh, those pics of Miles have melted my heart into a big ol puddle! Where’s the pic of you in your skinnies and awesome cowboy boots?! You are adorable!!

    Oh…what a happy little man.

  • Kellie H.October 26, 2008 - 9:20 pm

    his lil face would melt anyone’s heart…he’s darling with those eyealshes! My 2 kids have eyelashes like their daddy, so not from sparse me! Hope your week keeps on the up & up!

tonight’s sneak peek

Here’s a tiny peek of Jack, Will & Caroline (aka “Baby C”) from this afternoon’s shoot. (P.S. Don’t you LOVE their names? When King baby #2 comes along all I’ll have to do for cute names is scroll through our past shoots for inspiration.) I just MELT when older brother’s hold baby sister’s like this….

  • MayaOctober 29, 2008 - 10:55 am

    That first shot is adorable! I love the big bro holding his sis too!

everyday is pumpkin day

Every morning and evening, well after any of our walks, Miles wants to play in the pumpkins. He likes to roll them, place them in a line, count them and of course, throw the one that is the size of a tennis ball. (That poor, poor, pumpkin…) This photo looks like I was going for… Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...
