The Bards

It was a beautiful start to Derby Day with this awesome family! I love their outfits – they nailed the color coordination. The weather has been all over the place in Kentucky this May, and we really lucked out with this beautiful morning. And after the shoot we went to Windy Corner for breakfast, which pretty much sets you up for a perfect day (and maybe a nap.)  🙂

Tinley Grace… two years old!

I’ve photographed Tinley since she was six months old, and I can’t believe how fast the time goes.   I’m really going to miss this family when they move, but I’m already looking forward to some beach sessions!  🙂

Mary Walker and Carter!

I love watching these two grow up!   This will be the last cousin shoot where they are a duo – very soon there will be a trio of cousins!

Luca, Ashton, and Ella

I’ve photographed Luca and Ashton for a while now, and I was so excited to meet sweet Ella!  She is lucky – having these two as her big brothers!

Moms…

Mother’s Day is almost here!  I need to work on my gift-giving – my mom got a card (sorry to ruin the surprise Mom!)  Tinley’s Dad got her Mom a photo shoot for Mother’s Day, and that is waaaaay better than a card.  (Can she get any cuter?)

So, instead of a card I would like to thank my Mom for always being there for me, and supporting me in following my dreams.  My mom always raised me to believe that I could do anything I set my mind to, and for a long time I didn’t really believe her.  But here I am.  And it’s because even when I had my doubts, my mom was there saying, “I know you can.”   My mom is a wonderful lady, and I’m sure I don’t tell her enough.  I love you Mom!  Thank you for everything.

Tinley Grace… one year old!

It was a windy, blustery day for Tinley’s first birthday party!  It was still a sweet party, even though it kept trying to fly away!

Mary Walker’s 12 month mini-session

After Mary Walker’s awesome first birthday party we had a little mini-session to finish out her baby’s first year.  I’m going to miss seeing her every three months, but I know we will see each other often!

Mary Walker’s First Birthday!

I can’t believe that Mary Walker is already a year old!  I’m sure I’ve said that for every post about MW, but it is amazing how fast time goes.  She was my first ‘baby’s first year’ baby and it has been so awesome to see her every three months.  She has changed so much during the year and it has been such a gift to document this time.

 

But now, on to the party!  MW’s mom did a lovely job with all the details – I love all the thought she put into it!

Also, since I can’t quite let this year end (and because it’s hard to be one and a party hostess and a photo subject) we’ll be having a mini-session later this week!  🙂
