LensBaby Project 52 for November

It's hard to believe that we have done 11 months of weekly challenges already.  This year has gone by so quick.  I have loved having the extra motivation to get out there and shoot and try to challenge myself as a photographer.  Here are my November pictures.

I had so much fun meeting and photographing this sweet family a couple of weeks ago.  The boys were absolutely adorable!!  I really enjoyed watching them play and just being brothers.  I can just imagine how much fun they have together on a daily basis.  Thank you guys for letting me have a glimpse into your daily lives.  I really enjoyed taking your family pictures!!

Tis the Season {McKinney and Frisco Area Family Photography}



I love this time of year!  Thanksgiving is just a couple of days away and Christmas is knocking on the door.  I love the excitement and traditions that go along with it all.  It also reminds me of all the things I have to be thankful for.  One of the things I'm very thankful for this year is the opportunity to start my own photography business while getting to stay at home with my babies (who will tell you they are not babies any more but big kids).  Where has all the time gone???

 

I am also very thankful for my clients - the people who have had enough confidence in me to take their family pictures for them.  This sweet family has been awesome!!  They have given me several opportunities to take photos for them and I have loved every minute of it.  Those babies are so adorable and growing so fast!!  I love watching them as they grow and seeing those little personalities blossom with smiles.  Thank you guys for letting me be a part of it all!!

 

I couldn't decide on my favorites so definitely some picture overload going on.  :-)  Here are some of my favorites from their Christmas session.  And Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

 

 

What a Beautiful Family!! {McKinney and Frisco Area Family Photographer}

Last week I got to do another fun Christmas mini-session with a family I met from my twin moms group.  It's always so much fun for me to see how much the kids have grown.  It doesn't seem that long ago that the two little boys were playing in my living room.  I had the moms over for a Christmas-themed photo play date and we were able to fit both of the little guys in a small basket for a picture...man they sure are growing up!!  :-)

It was fun to see how much they had grown and also fun to see them with their older brother. When I think of little boys, I think of digging in the dirt, climbing trees, and making the whole outside world their own adventure.  These boys were awesome - they did it all and posed for some cuteness too!  Here are some of my favorites from our session.  And please forgive the picture overload again - I have such a hard time deciding on my favorites.  :-)

The "T" Family Christmas Mini Sessions {Frisco Family Photography}

The Christmas mini-sessions are officially underway.  And I'm really enjoying them.  The families have all been so great to work with!!  My first mini-session was with a family of one of my past co-workers.  In my previous life (before kids and photography) I was a software developer for Sally Beauty Company.  Wow, it feels like such a long time ago.  It was so nice to see old friends again!  And oh my goodness, just look, aren't their kids adorable?  I had a hard time picking my favorites from this session so here comes picture overload.  Hope you enjoy!  :-)
