Every age, big or small. The carnival is here. Or atleast is was behind my house for our photoshoot. Ian is turning 4 and brax 2 shortly after him. So we’re have a joint party with a Carnival theme. I’ve really been wanting to do a carnival photoshoot for a while and I’m glad I finally got to make it happen. Despite the huge mosquitoes, we had a lot of fun. The boys did really well and the popcorn helped keep them in the right spot. This “set” will be available if anyone wants a carnival photoshoot too. I’d love to do it again, minus the bugs.

And again a few more silly faces from my boys. I actually got brax to look at the camera this time. Tonight is the night for the big carnival photoshoot. I hope it goes as well as these of brax. I can’t wait!

Just a few snaps of Ian being silly and Brax only letting me get a shot of the back of his head. He’s not really liking the camera these days. But now that the weather is cooler and both boys b-days are coming up, I do have an awesome vintage carnival themed photoshoot in the works. It will be alot of fun and hopefully I’ll get some great shots of them both.

My weekend was photoshoot free, so we decided to head back to my mom’s lake house again. The water was up pretty high and the beach that we normally play at was covered. But there was a little spot of sand that we found for the kids to dig in. And while my youngest napped we went exploring with the big kids. They collected quite a few shells and I took pics of the scenery. It was a nice little weekend getaway.

Heather and Mohan invited me to their beautiful home to capture their kids birthday party. Carson was turning 3 and Arlie was turning 1. They put up a cool bouncy house in the backyard. Carson was alittle scared at first and it was really hot, so went spent most of the party inside. I have to give major props to Heather, she actually made those awesome cakes from scratch.  Very cool. All the kids had a great time and really enjoyed their new toys.  Thanks for inviting me, it was a great way to spend my morning. Enjoy your sneak peek, there are many, many more.

Here are my boys again. Just a few playing and a few with their new buzz lightyear water toy. Which they love! It’s fun to watch and a nice way to cool off outside.

This last week I actually had time to take a few pics of my boys. I focused on close ups this time. Braxton just being cute and showing off his beautiful blue eyes and Ian’s cheesy smile and silly face again. Were headed to the lake this coming weekend for the 4th, I should have a bunch of pics to share when we get back.

Meet my best friend Emily, her hubby JD and their twin boys Aidan and Riley. I had this idea for a session I wanted to try out and she gladly offered up her family to try it on. It didn’t come out excatly like I had pictured it in my head, but still great none the less. I hope to get more families to practice on and perfect my idea. I think I need a few more props and a different location. Anyways, here’s the ones that turned out and I love them all. Emily, I hope you love them too!

Well, I missed monday again. I’m just too busy lately to keep up with mine on monday every monday. I think I’m gonna just do 1 or 2 mondays a month, for the summer atleast. Ok, I found this motorcycle on the curb around the corner from my house and we put a battery in it and it works. Woo hoo free entertainment. So far Brax loves it. And luckily Ian realizes he’s too big for it so no fighting over it. So far atleast. And Ian’s been wanting to make silly faces when I take his pic, which is cute and always gets a natural expression afterwards since he thinks its so funny.
