Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with the B Family in Franklin, Indiana.  We were doing a ”deployed” Oplove session. 

Operation: Love Reunited (aka: OpLove) is a non-profit organization that allows us photographers to give back a small little something to the men and women (and their families) that defend our country.  If you haven’t yet, I encourage you to check out Operation: Love Reunited for more information.

The weather last night was absolutely perfect for an outdoor photo shoot.  I think we captured some gorgeous images of this fun family to send overseas to Mr. B.  I can’t wait to get the rest of these images processed so I can get his album finished and send it to him.  I truly hope it brings a smile to his hardworking heart to receive a photo album filled with images of his loved ones. 

Here are just a few images from our session.  Enjoy this sneak peek!

My goodness how time flies! I can’t believe this sweet little bundle is almost a year old! I remember my birthday last year going to the doctor with Miss K’s mommy, aka My Sister. I was secretly hoping that the spicy nachos we had for lunch that day would kickstart labor so I could share my birthday with my niece. It didn’t happen. However, I was there with bells on when this sweet little princess did arrive into our world six days later. I had never been on the other side of the hospital waiting game before. What an emotional rollercoaster that is!

I’m so blessed that not only have I had the privilege of being Miss K’s auntie, but also watching and documenting her grow throughout the first year.  I love this little girl as much as my own kiddos.  I can’t believe she’s already {almost} a year old!   

Here is Miss K at just a few days old.

If you asked me what one of my favorite things to sell my clients, I’d tell you, in a heartbeat, Photobooks!  I absolutely love designing photobooks that showcase the photos from my clients’ sessions. 

I love the larger sizes, but as a Mom myself, I adore the smaller 5×5 size for it’s portability.  The 5×5 sizes are perfect to fit in my purse and show off photos my sweet kiddos.

These photobooks were made from a recent session.  My client got a hard cover book for herself and two soft cover books for the grandmothers.  What a great idea!
