Christy and the boys

Silly me, I thought that once school started I would be able to get caught up on my blog. I have about a dozen half written blog entries and  maybe need to accept the fact that I may never get them posted. So many fun photos to share but never enough time. For now..I will start fresh..again.

A couple weeks ago I got to photograph Christy and her adorable family. While there are soo many favorites from this shoot that really show who this family is, I decided I would just highlight the few that bring the biggest smile to my face every time I look at them. And in reality, I will never get this entry up if I try and narrow it down to pick a few more photos! I LOVE these photos..love them. They make me happy and once again remind me what my favorite things about photography is. I love to capture the relationships and touching moments between families, especially a mama and her kids.  When these photos were taken, we were actually “done”. I was just trying to get a few quick photos of Christy alone. I asked Jett to stand behind me and help make his mommy laugh, instead he jumped on her and this is what I got. Christy is such a beautiful woman and an amazing mother, and just glows when with her children.
