Sweet Baby Boy

I have a good friend who is a foster mom to this beautiful baby! 

I was lucky enough to take some photos of him this week, but because confidentiality is essential, 

I can't show you any of his perfect little face! 

This sweet couple is fostering this baby with hopes that he will become theirs. 

As I look at these pictures and think of my friend, my heart fills with joy 

and with hope as I imagine that happening. 

They are so smitten with this baby (as was I after the first 30 seconds of meeting him) 

and it is plain to see that he simply adores them as well!

To my friends, you know who you are, 

my prayers are with you in hopes that he will be a permanent part of your family!

Keep Smiling,

Brittany R.

This is my sweet and beautiful cousin, Brittany!

We had a family reunion this last weekend, and we took a few minutes

away from the family and had a little photo shoot!!

It was FREEZING, so we didn't stay out for long,

but we definitely had a great time!!

Keep Smiling,

Travel Photos - England/Scotland 2001

In 2001, we had the opportunity to stay with my husbands family for a few weeks

while they were living in England! They lived in the beautiful town of Whitley Bay!

We toured Northern England and up into Scotland - here are some of our favorite photos from our trip!

 

It was such an amazing two weeks, we shot 30, yes, THIRTY, rolls of film while we were there!

Traveling is such a passion of ours and we are so grateful that we had this opportunity!

Keep Smiling,

Annie

Valerie Rose

Can you believe that this gorgeous girl is only 14?

She is definitely a photographer's dream!!

Val - you are completely GORGEOUS

and I had such a great time on this shoot with you!!

Sneak Peek for Val

Yesterday I got to take pictures of this adorable girl!

I haven't had time to edit all of them, 

but I am way too excited to wait to post these!

... Miss Eva ...

This is my beautiful new niece, Eva!

She is so squishy and adorable, 

and I just love her so, so much!

Baby Girl C

This photo shoot was so much fun! 

I love squishy babies who smile a lot and have beautiful eyes, 

and this sweet baby girl had those and so much more!

The Wilkies

There is a song that says,

"Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul,"

(I'd like to thank my husband for his taste in music and JAMES for those fabulous lyrics)...

Take a look at these kiddos and tell me you can't take a piece of them with you

after gazing into their beautiful eyes!
