Some more Easter bunny previews

So the question I got asked was "Why do bunnies and Easter eggs to together?" Good question, right? I get the bunnies, and I get the eggs, but why do they go together?

Some of my favorite kids here. What a blessing their family is in our lives - my daughter met their daughter on their first day of first grade, and it's been non-stop friends ever since. She's been such a great influence and friend to my little girl - always full of fun and exciting ideas. And I love her brother too - he's grown up so much in the last couple of years. For awhile he & my son had matching coats & Lightning McQueen shoes - it always made me smile.

I was so happy that they wanted bunny portraits - thanks for coming! So many fun pictures - this is a tiny sample.

And look at these handsome guys! They were awesome - they were so gentle with the bunnies, smiled, and looked great! I'm always really glad to see them. Last time their little guy needed tic-tacs to stay for the camera, but this time I didn't even have to get them out. Great job! :) And thanks for coming.

More patient bunnies

I'm going to have to double up on blogging these sessions... I did 12 sessions in 2 days, which was kind of a crazy thing to do. But they were each fun in their own way. It's always great to get to see old friends again, and I met some great new families too.

The first baby here is one of my very favorite "baby plan" babies. She has been so much fun! This is her third session, isn't she darling?

Her brother seems very grown up too - he did a great job.

And we even got some great pictures of them together! Sometimes that is the tricky part.

Sometimes it's so fun to open an umbrella inside!

More spring portraits from my mini-sessions! This little girl couldn't have been cuter. She had plenty of energy, creativity, and gorgeous smiles. And I thought her parents were great too. Thanks so much for coming!

She had some very agile toes :) - she can also hold an umbrella.

Maternity session, a growing family!

I first met this beautiful family at National Adoption Day, and was so happy to be invited back to their home for a maternity photo session. It was such a pleasure to get to work with them again. Such wonderful kids! Their little one was just about to have a birthday, and the baby is due in a couple of weeks. Some exciting times coming up!

Twins in Easter dresses - so sweet!

These two sweeties came to help me test out my Easter setup. They were so cute! Their mom said "They might be at a hard age, I'm not sure" and I said "Don't worry, 18 months is probably the hardest age." She said "They are 17 months, almost 18 ..." Oh! I guess I knew that - I took their birthday pictures and I actually see them pretty often, I just hadn't put the pieces together.

So that said, they were so sweet! They took a little coaxing, and one of the girls wasn't super smiley. But when I looked through the pictures there were tons of really sweet ones - I was very happy. I hope their mom will be too!

She really wanted to go play outside, but it's been so awfully windy out!
