I had the pleasure of photographing the boys of the Norbeck Family not too long ago.  The weather was radiantly sunny and the boys were a delight to say the very least.  When their mother, Jenny, contacted me about their photo shoot, I was excited to meet the trio that I’ve been hearing so much about from their Aunt Kari.  She was definitely right, the boys were a lot of fun and absolutely adorable!  Thanks Jenny and Jason for allowing me to capture the beauty and innocence of your children! You guys make a wonderful family!

Going “Greene” is the ever more popular and trendy movement that is sweeping the country.  Well I got to experience “the movement” first hand by spending an action packed afternoon with the bubbly Greene family.  From top to bottom, they each possess a unique personality; however, their strengths lie not from their individualism but from their family bond, which is reminiscent of the classic Brady Bunch family.

I was especially blown away by the cooperativeness and natural modeling skills of the kids.  It didn’t hurt either that Lan and Shawn came prepared with snacks and tricks up their sleeves to keep these munchkins happy! Kudos to you guys!

Thanks Shawn, Lan, Connor, lil’ Allison and baby Michael for an awesomely fun shoot!

I’m sure you’ve heard of Jon and Kate plus 8, well this is Michael and Jennie plus many!  When Jennie reached out to me to take her family portraits, I was ecstatic and nervous all at the same time!  After all, it was my very first family shoot and …she IS my boss!  Well the tables turned on the day of the shoot and boy did it feel GREAT to be boss for a day!

The Boyer family was a lot of fun to work with, not only because they were so easy going but because they had spunk, fun and lots of love!  Michael, Jennie, Austin, Wyatt,  and triplets- Jasmine, Oliver, Violet:  Thanks for taking a chance on me and giving me the opportunity to capture the beauty and love of your wonderful family.

It’s all about the eyes:  the incredibly round chocolate brown eyes!  Sooo cute!

There’s just something about the innocence in babies that makes my heart melt…

He’s not in time-out…I promise!  He’s just marking his territory.

One of my favorite shots of the day!  He is totally in character…

Watch out mom and dad…here comes the next heartbreaker!
