What you've all been waiting for

At least, what one happy (and patient) couple has been crossing their fingers for. Congratulations and best of luck to you two!

In Gratitude

To the world's most photogenic couple: Thank you for your patience. (But if you weren't so photogenic, this wouldn't be taking so long.) It will be worth it. By this weekend. Love, Alaina.

Just Because

I had my own family photos taken on Sunday, and Raquel was amazing enough to post a blog for me the VERY NEXT DAY - so I'm paying it forward (3 days late) for Heidi. There are 720 good shots babe, just you wait! Hope this tides you over for a few more days :)

It's all in the family

Dear Cousin: I still remember babysitting and bribing you with otter pops to get your diapers changed. Thanks for letting me harass you,and for turning out to be one handsome model. These pictures turned out fabulously, and there are so many great ones. You are a stud.

Love, Alaina

P.S. - I am still drooling over your belt. Thanks for the 'behind' shot.

It's so LIKE a man to be bored/yawning when taking pictures.... this was a regular occurrence and I threatened to post a snapshot of it ;)

Ravishing Relatives

I keep vowing to post smaller blogs with less pictures, and it just doesn't happen with these gorgeous people I get to photograph and all the fun we have. This is my dad's youngest sister and one of my most delightful relatives - and it shows in the playfulness of this whole family.

It's that time of year...

Fall Colors! We caught the perfect day with the perfect weather. It felt more like a little vacation than a photo shoot.

This was my first shoot with an animal, and I was surprised to take twice as many pictures as I normally do when chasing around a stubborn toddler. We ended up with some perfect shots!
