Things I love….. Adorable kids. Bright colorful rooms. Laughter. Tuesday morning lifestyle sessions :)
When I walked in, Caroline and Gray greeted me at the door with ear-to-ear smiles, adorable matching outfits, and little giggly voices “Kristen, watch this!” I had never even met them before, but I immediately felt warm and welcome. They showed me their toys, tricks and headstands, and then I asked them if they were having their pictures taken today. ”Yeeesss!!!” More big smiles. I adore my job :)


I love these ones of just Caroline and Gray…


After portraits, Caroline showed me her adorable room. I can’t get over the ribbons in her hair, they are just so perfectly cute :)


Gray loves Thomas the Tank Engine…

And little John loves Mom <3

(and her pearls!)

They took a little camera-break by reading a book…

…while Grandma helped out with John. They seem to like the music the piano makes :)



When we were all done, they all had some breakfast. I took a few pictures of them around the table – not as portraits, but just as life the way it is. Just a regular morning. This one of Caroline is one of my top faves from the day ~

Thank you again for inviting me into your home! It was a fun morning – you are all SO wonderful. It was such a pleasure to meet you! :)
