  • Senior: Beautiful Beautiful

    HANNAH

    This lady. Is a senior, first of all. That's why we met up to take pictures on that foggy foggy morning.

    We drank coffee and chatted and kept hoping the sunshine would be - but it never was.

    It didn't matter because Hannah is so beautiful we didn't need the sun =)

    Also we were so  busy having such a good time we kept forgetting that the sun was not there.

    AND her mom! Is completely incredible. She is so lucky to be a senior supported by the exact mother that she has.

    To feed her donuts and carry her outfits around and to spray her hair from time to time.

    O i had such a great time and i loved meeting both of you!!

    Hannah: Senior life is so busy and full and overwhelming. I know you will be taking this all in stride, tho, because you have an

    incredible heart. Your smile comes from deep within and you are supported- and loved. In return you are loving and supportive and full

    of smiles. Live it up! All the sports and the late nights and the no lunch days cause your too busy. You will only be here at this place one

    time :) Also......

    I kinda want to stalk you and your friends cause i think you must have fun wherever you go! I promise i won't, but i will look for every

    opportunity to get sneak peaks of how it's all turning out.

    There is something so exciting about having one child and having another on the way.

    One to share in the excitement, the joy, and the sha-bang of having a baby.

    To make it more fun and more enthralling.

    And i'm sure more exhausting.

    As you can see by the order of photos that once this little guy warmed up to the camera he had a lot of fun!

    He kept losing his boot which made some great interaction photos between father and son.

    My husband  came along and brought the puppy...

     It really works with the kids to help them forget about the camera.

    (even if they are scared of puppies- right, Lorene?)

    Babies.

    Puppies.

    Sunshine.

    Trike.

    Mom & Dad.

    Flowers.

    Grasses.

    And sunshine again.

    i love celebrating life in this way.  -Diane

  • This couple.

    5K9A2492_WEB

    I met this beautiful woman a number of years ago. She wasn't married. She was radiant. Happy. Excited about life.

    I noticed a certain peace about her that i wanted to have. She was friendly-transparent-radiant.

    When she scheduled her photo shoot i didn't recognize her name - Cause she is now married.

    And all the other qualities. Just the same. This couple.

    Is so beautiful and i loved meeting them!!

  • Some Family Love.

    5K9A0005_WEB

    I love families. In all shapes and forms. This one was no exception. The great thing about the above photo ( my favorite one of them all) is that this little girl, taking a swing in the air that nobody was prepared for, was the most well behaved little girl the entire time. She is photogenic and loves taking photos. She smiled beautifully and did whatever her mother asked of her. The little boy, however, was not as excited about taking photos. You could never know that from this image and that is why it is my favorite!

    Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful

    FAMILY.

    Thank you Jason and Ann Michelle for the honor of freezing a tiny moment in time for you. I LOVED IT!

    When it comes to patience in mothers- This one wins a crown with so many jewels. I don't need to tell any photographer that a patient mother makes the whole process so fun and carefree - for the children most importantly. It's a big process and maybe only an every three year tradition. And it takes so much patience for mommies everywhere. I want to be patient when i grow up ;)
