Hollis and the End of Summer

This post is definitely an oldie…but a goodie! Its so old (taken back in July…I know) that when I met up with the Moore family during the fall mini session, I realized that it had already been 3 months since I had taken Hollis’ pictures! Omgsh!!! This summer (and fall for that matter) just absolutely FLEW by! Geez! So with that in mind, I thought why not bid a final farewell to summer and welcome fall and very soon winter! 😀 

Here is Hollis, back when he was a wee 9 months old! 

I was SO excited when Kate emailed me and inquired about a session. I absolutely LOVE Kate and her family for many reasons! Not only is she the creator of my awesome logo, but she also created mine and Robby’s Save-the-Date and will be doing our invitation suite for the big day!!! I cannot say enough great things about Kate! She also just so happens to have the cutest two boys ever!!! You’ll see more of Finn tomorrow when I share their awesome Fall Session and Hollis’ One Year pictures!! 

I loved Kate’s idea for Hollis’ pictures! For the first location we literally walked out into their side yard and sat Hollis in the grass…you don’t need very much to make this little guy cute! 

I cannot get over his expression. This is it…he literally gave me this expression all morning!! 

When I asked Kate what she had in mind for Hollis, she knew exactly what she wanted. She said he loves the water, especially taking a bath, and she thinks getting him in the pool would be so much fun! I couldn’t agree more! I LOVE out of the box session! Me in my bathing suit, with my camera in the water is definitely out of the box! 😀

Someone’s momma is not very nice and decided to splash him. Luckily, Hollis is a total trooper and got back to giggling in no time! 

LOVE his shirt! Teehee! 

One of my favs!!!!! 

Such a ham!!! I love this little guy! You’ll get to see him all dolled up tomorrow so stay tuned! 

Little Man Lucas

This little guy, Lucas, and his parents are some of my absolute FAVS!!! When Ashley shot me a message saying she wanted some pictures of Little Man Lucas for his 6 months, I thought to myself “Its about TIME!!!” LOL! I did Ashley and Steven’s Bump Photos back in October and have been itching to meet Lucas ever since I saw those big blue eyes on Facebook! So Ashley, Steven, Lucas and I hit up Concord Park for a little fun in the shade! Let me just say that I have yet to meet a baby that wasn’t happy!! I don’t know what it is about a camera, but they just light up! Lucas probably takes the cake when it comes to big boy smiles and insane fits of giggles!  

Seriously, little old man New Balances! I wanted to stick these in my bag so bad and make off with them!

 I just absolutely love this image…especially in B&W. I don’t know what it is…but its so calming.

Lucas and his Momma…seriously, he was such a ham! It also helped that he is completely enamored with his Daddy and Steven did a great job keeping him entertained!!! 

I LOVE when a dad plays with his kiddo!!! 

I’m heading up to VA this weekend for a fun family birthday party and a 1 year session!!! So excited to see the family and finally chill out (or semi chill-out) for a weekend! Make sure to head back on Monday for an amazing engagement session that I had out in a little park in Oak Ridge! 🙂
