The Craft Family | St. Patrick's County Park

I simply ADORE this family. I've known Sarah and Brandon for MANY years - as we all used to work together back in my high school days! AHHH, crazy how time flies. And OH SO THANKFUL how technology can still connect us.

Their family is incredibly adorable - beautiful - and oh so sweet.

Despite the frigid temps we dealt with the day of their session, they still managed to look so precious - and had so much fun together! Some of the most genuine interactions I've ever had the privilege of photographing! Beautiful in every way. Family time, certainly is the BEST time! ♥ Thankful to share in these moments!

Taylor Family | Downtown South Bend

I love this family. They are so adorable. So sweet. So WONDERFUL.

I've known them for quite some time and have had the privilege of watching their beautiful girls grow up.

Had such a blast with them a few weeks ago, despite the crazy weather!

Love them. ♥ And thankful to share in some wonderful moments!

Lil' Miss Anna Bean | Newborn | 2012

Meet sweet little Anna. Also known as 'Lil' Miss Bean' by her mommy and daddy. :)

She is a little beauty - a little sweetie pie. Her mommy and daddy are completely smitten by her.

My sis and I had the privilege of spending some time with sweet Anna and her mommy and daddy last week - and what a wonderful time we had! And we must say - little Anna's room was the cutest room we've ever seen! Her mommy handmade MANY of the decorations and the colors were simply beautiful! Very crafty and so unique!

Precious Anna was such a trooper getting her pictures taken! And mommy and daddy were pretty awesome too!

Favorites | 2011

So I'm a few days behind in posting this. It's definitely a challenge to sift through thousands of photos from this past year, and pick out a few favorites. There are so many favorites. It was such an amazing year! We simply cannot wait for what's ahead in 2012. 

So, without further rambling, here are some favorites from 2011, in no particular order. While we tried to include EVERYONE, we might have missed a few - which that in no way changes how we adore and appreciate you! We just probably forgot to check a folder of photos on our computer! ;) We are sincerely thankful for each and every one of you - for letting us share in some special moments with you - and some 'just because' fun too! We LOVE you all! You're BEAUTIFUL!
