Merry Christmas!

Mery Christmas and Happy New Year!

Just wanted to wish everyone a very happy holiday! It has been a busy year and we have so much to be thankful for this year! Andrew, Ava and I welcomed 3 new darlings to our lives, Emma, Mia, and Zoe. Ava turned 3 in November and is such a great big sister! She just loves these babies :) and Emma, Mia, and Zoe are growing like weeds and will be trying to keep up with Ava before we know it!

We have truly been so blessed and have so many things to be thankful for with such wonderful family and friends in our lives!! We don't know where we would be without you. It has been such a joy to be able to share this journey and all of what lies ahead. Look out 2010!

The Hill's featuring Alyssa

One of my dearest friends asked me to take pictures of her beautiful family and I jumped at the chance! Danielle and Grant just built their dream house and what better location to take pictures as they start this new chapter in their lives!?! Sweet angel Alyssa was so much fun and is such a doll that it was hard to stop taking pictures :) Love this family to pieces!!

Enjoy the slideshow:

The Hodge Family Story

I have known Bree Hodge for years now and was so honored when she asked me to photograph her family. Her daughter, Ellie, had just turned 4 months and her Mom was in town too so it was such a great opportunity to get the whole family. Thank you Bree and Greg for allowing me to capture these precious moments!!! Bree, you look amazing after only a few short months!

Pampers and Poker Party raises 5000 diapers and 4000 wipes!!!

We are completely in awe of our wonderful friends and their generosity!!! Words cannot express how truly thankful we are to have such amazing people in our lives and will remember your kindness with every diaper change! :)

A VERY special thank you to Tommy Keeling, Karl Morris, and Lance Speck for hosting the poker party! A good time was had by all and the lovely wives deserve a huge thank you as well for providing the amazing brisket spread and setting everything up: Melanie Keeling, Jessica Morris, Shelly Parker, and Cindy Speck!! The party was an absolute hit and Andrew and I cannot thank you all enough!

After organizing (by size :) ) and counting them all, (yes I had a blast doing that) we have about 5000 diapers and 4000 wipes, which by our calculations is about 6.5 months!!!!!
9 diapers per day x 3 baby girls = 27 diapers a day on average
27 diapers per day x 7 days = 189 per week x 4 weeks = 756 per month average

Check out the wall of diapers in the triplets room!!! Mia, Emma, and Zoe have no idea how loved they are already :)

Thank you!!!
Andrew and Laura

The Waters Family Story

I had the awesome opportunity to take pictures of our friends Melanie and John Waters and their PRECIOUS son, Justin! WOW! Is he ever a cutie! He made my job so easy until it came down to minimizing the amount of pictures...I mean really, he doesn't take a bad picture :) Those adorable cheeks and just the way he looks up at you melt your heart! It was extra special because Melanie sold us our house a little over a year ago and during the search process she found out that she was pregnant so we knew Justin long before he knew us :)

I realized that they haven't had any photos of just themselves since they got married we were able to grab a few of them alone as well. Adorable!

We had such and great time and I can't thank them enough for allowing me to tell their story as well as capture Justin turning 1! There are too many to post so check out their slideshow to see more!

The Karlin Family

I had the very fortunate opportunity to capture the Karlin family in action just after the New Year and what an awesome family!!! I have known Becky and her husband Paul for several years now and they are so great that I was not at all surprised that her 2 brothers, sister, their husbands and wife, and niece and nephew were just as amazing!! I can't thank them enough for allowing me to capture the rare moment where they are all together. Here is their story :)
