Katelyn & Hayley

Katelyn & Hayley..two of my favorite subjects. Not only am I lucky enough to have some really great friends, but to have great friends with beautiful girls who actually like getting their photos taken. What more could I ask for? It is always fun to go and visit Erica at the ranch. Not only do we get to sit around and have some some girl time while her girls keep my kids busy, but I also get to play around and be a photographer. Even better, my fabulous photographer friend Wendy came out to the creek for part of my visit and got to join in the fun with the girls. I’ll start with Hayley. She is not always as excited to get her picture taken, but when she is in the mood..wow. She’s a little cowgirl with the bluest eyes I have ever seen and the cutest missing teeth smile so common at this age.

And then there is Katelyn. She is a natural in front of the camera and is such a mix of her mom and dad. I can’t believe she is going to be 10 on her next birthday. That means that in just a few years she is going to be the same age that Erica and I were when we first met. How could that be?!

Here are the blue eyes I was talking about.

Trouble, this girl is going to be trouble for you, Jeff and Erica when she discovers the wonderful world of boys.

There is something about these photos that I just love. They just scream summer to me. I love the denim shorts and the striped shirts. I know for a fact that Erica and I had similar outfits 20 YEARS ago when Dirty Dancing came out and “Baby” made the look so popular. I hope you like the photos Erica.
