The Berry Family and I enjoyed a chilly morning together…with lots of little snacks and laughs! Big brother Trevor is into everything that little boys should be and loves his new little brother, Grayson a ton! They were troopers to fight through the cold, but we got some awesome moments on film to show for it! Hope you enjoy…
The Ortiz Family

The Ortiz Family gets the cool honor of being my very first family with quadruplets! I am still in awe of how amazing Gabe and Niury are as parents. I cannot even wrap my head around 4 newborns wanting to eat, all at the exact same time. This dear family has raised two girls (Olivia & Juliana) and two boys (Aiden & Gabriel) to be wonderful little five year olds! Their family makes my top three strongest family list for sure! Not just for raising 4 awesome little kiddos but beginning the hardest fight of their lives here in the last month. Gabe had just finished his first chemo treatment right before our session. What a strong man, and the ultimate role model for his children. He will win.
One of my shots from their session brought me to tears instantly. I was sitting in my car going through the images and deleting all the “bad” shots, when I crossed by a shot that a sunbeam clearly was coming from heaven and directly going on Gabe’s head. I have never in all my 10 million + images have ever seen this. What a moment.
I am so grateful to have spent my evening learning all about the Ortiz family…and each of their fun personalities! We had such a great time playing on the farm…feeding donkeys and looking for fish! I hope I captured the true essence of their sweet family! I have had such an incredible week of inspiration. Thank you to all of you.
Enjoy…

What a fun love story this family has to tell to their children and grandchildren one day…
Ashley and Josh are going to be doubling the size of their family and love very soon, and I could not be any more excited for them. I have known Ashley a long time and I am over the moon for her, and her sweet babies. Josh is absolutely perfect for her. His son and daughter fit in so perfectly with her two kids. I have heard Ashley swoon over Josh for quite some time now, and you can see their love for each other and their children glowing as soon as you see them together. Makes my heart happy & full. I am so glad I got to capture some fun and beautiful new moments as a big, happy family for all of them! New images to decorate their happy home. 🙂
Oh, I forgot to mention the obvious…but my my aren’t they absolutely gorgeous?! All 6 of them could blow you away!!! Enjoy~~

Kellan is a big ball of adorable love. Oh my. I photographed him at 6 months and I’m pretty sure he’s twice as tall as he was 6 months ago. He was such a doll for his entire moment of fame…I love all his fun images and you will all want to squeeze him too!! Enjoy!!

The Beshears ROCK. I don’t even have to write this…you will all see it plain as day in their photos. I captured the real Beshears…and that makes my life happy. (hopefully theirs too) Kathy and Ben are perfect for each other and seriously their two handsome little men are edible. And to top it off they have awesome names…Nash & Benji-Grant 🙂
Hope you enjoy….

The Hemrick Family were so so welcoming and sweet to me when I came to their home to meet their newest addition—handsome Tate. Plus, they knocked out their session like pros—and I fell in love with their daughter, Tess!! Such a loving and sweet family!!! Tate was the biggest fan of squishing up for me, but he did stay asleep the whole time I played at their home. 🙂 perfect!! Hope you enjoy!!
The Osborne Family

So, the good news is…I got to photograph an incredible family this past weekend. The bad news is…I had 5 others that are having to be rescheduled due to yet ANOTHER icky, rainy & cold weekend!!! Fingers crossed that tomorrow begins the new spring streak of sunshine, warm temps and happiness all around!!!
Oz, Kim and precious lil Eli (9 months old) were rocking the 40 and 50 degree temps early Saturday morning, and yes they were dressed for spring. duh. It should be warm, and it should be sunny. Spring sessions aren’t suppose to look like a spring in Antarctica…thus we have the colorful and springy Osborne Family. We laughed and hung out…I love my fun chats with new friends, and I know that is deep down the real reason behind this so called “talent” of mine. One day if I were to lose interest in people, their stories, their dreams, and their loves then I would most likely go back to only photographing my own children. But as most people know…I can’t stop talking and asking questions. or a better way of saying it- I love to talk and I love to be curious to learn everything about how & why people tick. The Osborne’s adore their main man Eli- and I fell in love with him as well. He does this awesome little nose curl currently…and I want his Mommy & Daddy to remember it forever. I hope I captured the true beauty of this sweet sweet family!
The Howard Girls

I am beyond blessed to be a part of the Howard Family’s world. I am thankful I call each one of them my friend. Lindsay and Matt are so dear. I didn’t want to leave after we finished honestly…but for one, Matt ran out of beer and for two, he was starving- so they had to leave. But I am pretty sure we could have chatted the night away watching the sun set out in the fields. Good times for sure. They have two absolutely gorgeous little girls. Ella is 5 and glows with happiness and love. She has the kindest soul. I adore her. Kate just turned 3 and is just as beautiful. Her blonde hair and blue eyes melt me- and has a spice to her that will wrap anyone around her finger. The girls are precious together…always helping one another and doing what sisters are truly meant to do for each other. Another fun addition to the family, is 10 month old Amos- their black lab puppy. He is a charmer. I cannot find one bad photo from all of their images…not one. So I hope you enjoy as much as I know Lindsay and Matt will 🙂
SPRING FUN!!!

With all these gorgeous blooms (plus the abundance of pollen covering every inch of our town, and sinuses), I decided I needed to stop off and grab a couple spring shots of our little monsters. Without them, I truly doubt I would’ve found this passion for child photography- or ever would’ve turned my camera off of auto to figure out what else it would do. These boys are my world. {+God and my handsome hubby} oh, and Cooper and Dozer <our four-legged children>. So, with that being said- it was a nice day and I had a last minute cancellation, so I took the boys out to eat and headed to a beautiful field of yellow flowers! Then I let the rugrats be themselves. To top it off I had a friend with her adorable son meet me there too…so it ended up as a fun playdate as well. You can never have too many photos of your own children. EVER. I know I have always been teased about taking too many of my kids- but I ignore the comments completely. Or laugh because within time they will have children of their own and say “wow, I now understand why Heather takes 10 million pictures of her kids each week.” Life is so short. Make it sweet, happy & fun! Hope you enjoy…Cade (4 years), Jax (2 years), Kolt (15 months) and Kellan (13 months), my sweet friend Alex’ son.
Mr. Kellan in action…
and lastly, I captured a sweet group of guys out to enjoy their evening on bikes…
