You can all breathe a sigh of relief...this isn't another pointless personal post. This is a post with pictures from a fun family session we did a couple weeks ago. Cute kids are involved, so get excited!
When Kami wrote me a while back about doing this session, I was pumped! I've known Kami for a long time. She's the older sister of one of my ALL-TIME best friends, Kasie. (Side note, Kasie, affectionately known as Kasie Boo by her niece, came along for the shoot!! Yay for that!)
Anyway, Kami wanted something 'different' (love that) so I had all these awesome locations (or so I thought) and ideas planned out. Well, when we did a final look at the places, there was something wrong with each of them. There was either too much glass around, too much tall grass/weeds and thus ticks, and basically, they just weren't kid friendly. When they arrived, little miss 'B' wasn't exactly super-excited about getting her pictures taken. SO, we headed to the nearest alley and when we got there, there was all these large construction trucks and stuff in front of where we wanted to shoot. At this point, 'B' is even more unhappy (I never realized we were so scary..hehe) so we just said forget it and worked it right there!
Kasie Boo tried making 'B' smile by fake hurting herself...like tripping on the curb, running into signs, etc... It worked like a charm. She began giggling like CRAZY!! She's just the cutest thing. We worked fast while the smiles were in full force. Here's some of what we got:
The session might have been short and sweet but we had a great time! Kami and Ryan, thanks so much for having us capture your family at such a fun and crazy time! =) Your family is just adorable. Enjoy!

Oh Summer, how I long for the you. I miss the days of lounging in the pool and playing tennis. I miss our evenings of walking uptown, snarfing Grinder Man cookies, and catching a movie. No school, no work, just fun. I miss getting to see the sunshine. I miss having free time. I miss Summer. Oh how I miss Summer.
These depressed feelings came about as I was looking through these pictures. They just scream "SUMMER TIME!! YEAH!" Yep, just like that. As I looked through them, I actually got extremely excited because IT'S SUMMER! =) Then, I remembered, I don't get summers anymore. I think we all deserve summers! Don't you?!
Ok, so let's quickly move past my pity party and onto this ridiculously adorable child and all the fun she had enjoying Summer!
Steve and Cori, we had an absolute blast playing with her, just like we always do.Thanks for having us over! She's got so much personality which I hope these photos capture.
That's one of our favorite things about photography. We have the opportunity to capture real memories...more than just what a kid looks like at a certain age... but what they act like, do for fun, and the expressions they make. We strive to get fun images that, 20 years from now, will take you back. More on that later. For now, just enjoy! =)

Those pics are great, Alisha! I'm not surprised Kasie's fake injuries made her laugh. That little girl can get me to laughing so hard I'm crying!
