is there anything better? | goshen family photographer

I LOVE being momma to twin girls but it such a treat to get to spend time with my all boy families.  So much the same.  But at the same time, so different.

This family?  Love, love them.  The both boys are members of our Baby Step Alumni.  I've watched them grow from just a few days old.  As a photographer, is there anything better?

Thanks for another fun session, my gorgeous friends.

Just popping in with this gorgeous family's sneak peek.  I always love working with these guys and this session was no exception.  You know it's going to be a good session when this pic (above) is literally the very first click.  Loved my time with them and the images we came away with!!

Monday, July 7 is Opening Day! When I will begin scheduling September through November photo sessions.  Beginning at 9AM sharp!  Details will follow.  Email me with any questions.

Do you know the song Happy from the Despicable Me 2 movie?  It's become a Hoke family favorite and kitchen dance party hit.  Well, HAPPY is how I felt when I visited these super cute boys.  They were happy and in a celebrating mood (big brother's birthday was the following day) and it was contagious!  I'm pretty sure it still is.  So you may want to be careful as you scroll through these images.  You're bound to get a big ol' smile and maybe a case of the happies yourself.

silly | michiana family photographer

This was a fun, silly session!  I'm surrounded by girls so much of the time.  So, for me, it's a treat to spend time with silly boys.  A cherry on top, if they are as cute as these two.  My camera loved them!!  The warm, setting sun helped create beautiful images.

Won't you please help me wish this delightful young man a Happy 4th Birthday?! Oh, did we have a good morning! He loved all my jokes (at least he humored me and giggled at the right time). Momma had the perfect outfits chosen. The weather was picture perfect. Sigh...I love my job!

all aboard | mishawaka family photographers

This good-lookin' family shared their beloved train museum with me and I loved it. These guys are passionate about their trains. As the boys got out of the car I could hear them saying things like, "Oh, look what they have on the track today" and "Mom! It's the {insert train lingo here}!" I love to see kids (and dads) get so excited about these things. It was a treat, for sure. I could have walked around and shot for hours at this cute train museum, but the heat and these darling&squirrely little boys called for promptness. Thanks for a great session, family!

homerun | south bend family photography

When I arrived and saw fresh lemonade with Mason jar glasses on the front porch and this handsome young man, I just knew we were going to hit a homerun that day. Owen was looking sharp with his linen suit coat and darling striped tie. And we took full advantage of the rare spring sunshine and had a fun time walking around their yard and neighborhood. Thanks for a fun session, family! I loved my time spent with you!

p.s. Wondering what to dress your little man in for his spring photo session? This fits the bill perfectly.

p.s.s More info on how you can order these fabulous frames coming soon. Don't tell anyone...but...there just might be a giveaway involved!!

bright smiles | mishawaka photographer

Here it is...a sneak peek of this sweet family's Wednesday session. This is the 2nd time that I've had the pleasure of working with this good-looking bunch and it just keeps getting better. The boys are great to work with. Even the little one who took a bit more coaxing. I love it when they finally come around and flash those bright smiles. Thanks family is was a pleasure! I'm already looking forward to next time.
