These two can NOT take a bad picture!  Oh my goodness.  They are just the cutest things and baby sister was so happy and smiley.  We met for her 9 month session and Big Sister is turning 4 next week so we better wish her a very HAPPY 4TH Birthday!  Hope you have a fabulous party:)  Thanks so much for a super fun session.  I can't wait until next time!!

how cute | granger family photographer

Hi, friends!  It's Friday night and I'm posting a sneak peek??  Not my usual working hours but the Hokes are busy!  We are preparing for a super fun 9th birthday party for the twins, the last day of school for this year is on Tuesday, and it's Memorial Day weekend.  Wow.  Lots of fun going on, but I know this momma is anxious to see her family.  And how cute are they??  So with that I'll bid you goodnight.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Now scheduling THUMB OF MICHIGAN sessions.  July 2 - 7, 2012.  Email me for more details!!

Oh, yes.  She is just as fun as she looks.  I had the privileged of meeting this fun soon-to-be-two year old earlier this week on the campus of Saint Mary's. The forecast had us second guessing ourselves, but in the end it was perfect.  I'm told that Little Sweetheart's favorite color is yellow.   Doesn't it look beautiful on her?  I, personally, am just a sucker for those little voices saying the word "yellow."  Thanks for a super fun session!

I'm just loving all the early "green" that we're enjoying because of the early warm up this spring.  I met up with this gorgeous momma to be (well, she's already a momma but you know what I mean) late last week to document this incredibly special time in her life.  I am just awestruck at the miracle of life.  Aren't you?

Half way through our session, daddy called to say he was off work early so he headed over and jumped right in.  I'm so glad.  This picture below was taken as she was watching him walk up.  Love.  Can't you just  "see" it?

When this guy is around you can't help but smile.  He's such a happy-go-lucky baby.  It helps that his parents are pros and getting him to smile.  I just love watching him grow.  Don't you?  Here's a little walk down memory lane.  One week and four months.  I can't get the links to work right now.  I'll try to get back on and fix them later.  Thanks so much for a super session!  I love Graham & Co. 

**Links are fixed.  Yay!

these moments | edwardsburg photographer

Just look at these beauties!  I was so excited to meet up with these sweet girlies last week.  We've come a long way since I first photographed Little Sister for her First Communion.  I seriously found myself getting a little teary when I realized how fast they are growing up.  So thankful to capture these moments on (digital) film for them.  Thanks for a super fun session, girls! 

mommy & me | granger childrens photographer

I'd like to extend a warm JHP welcome to my beautiful new friends.  This charming little girl has just turned 3 years old.  She's such a fun gal and certainly knows how to get down.  Her dance moves were absolutely amazing!  And these Mommy&Me photos?  Be still my mommy heart.  Just in time for Mother's Day.  Happy Friday and Happy Mother's Day, friends!  Have a beautiful weekend:)

you are good | granger family photographer

You know when I leave a session with four cupcakes to take home...it's been a good one. :)  Precious Baby Isaac has graduated from our Baby Steps program.  Cue the Pomp and Circumstance. 

I just love this family and am so grateful that we've had the privilege to be part of their story.  Like the song says, God "you are good and your mercy lasts forever." 

happy birthday, dear isaac.
happy birthday, to you.

just as sweet | elkhart baby photographer

This one is just as sweet as he looks.  We had a gorgeous evening on our hands as we met up for his 8 month Baby Step session last weekend.  A beautiful walk through the park with this fun family was a great way to spend my time.  Next time we meet, we'll be ready to celebrate his 1st Birthday!  Can someone please let me where the time is going??  Thanks, friends!
