Guyette Kiddies

When Jenn contacted me about doing a session for her 2 little boys and 1 month old daughter I have to tell you I may have been a little nervous. Getting kids to 'sit still' is not an easy task, but when I got to their house 2 little, happy, sweet boys greeted me and couldn't wait to get some pictures taken!

Nothing I love more than spending a few hours playing games & running around with little ones! Ryan & Dennis loved nothing more than to play on their swing set & they love they have for their new little sister was so sweet!

Than of course there was sweet little Caley. She was so good for us : ) Poor little thing, we kept disturbing her peaceful nap!

Thank you Jenn, Caley, Ryan & Dennis for sharing your morning with me, bringing me to your beautiful home & allowing me to capture some precious moments! I look forward to future sessions. Xo

When Eiryns mom Cheryl who I adore asked me a few months back if I would do Eiryns senior photos I was so honored and of course said YES! We met at one of my favorite locations in Connecticut & It was EXTRA cold- Even snowed a little!!

When I got there I had a little camera issue, but the girls were so patient & understanding while I resolved it!

I can remember how I looked my senior year in high school... ::cough cough :: almost 12 years ago! I know for sure I didn't look this gorgeous OR have my head on straight like these girls! It was a great morning getting to know them, their dreams, wishes & learning about their friendship of 14 years!

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.

Eiryn & Ally I wish you both all the best in your next ventures..keep on aiming for stars ladies!

All because 2 people fell in love...

I met Eileen & Jonathan back in January when they had their sweet little girl Olivia. I spent quite a few hours in their home getting to know them and the love they had for each other was just amazing!

Of course when Eileen asked me a few months later to schedule a large family session with her parents, sister & niece I was more than happy!

We had scheduled and re scheduled quite a few times due to work issues, but we finally found a date in October, and we were able to keep it! I was excited & I know they were too! We got lucky and we had a beautiful Saturday morning- of course it was a little colder than normal but they all layered up and braved the cold!

Within minutes of meeting the adorable little Verity she immediately asked me my name and of course we became best friends!

She was full of personality and even though she didn't want to take any more pictures she would still smile just for me!

A family is full of so many things.. Love being one of them. Of course a family begins with 2 people...

This family was FULL of love for each other. Laughing, smiling and singing the entire time! I was honored to be part of this special moment with them!
