my girl | bloomington normal photographer

…one of them, anyway.  :)

six months is the perfect age for a camera wielding momma- she can’t get away from me!  ;)  In just a few short months she won’t be so happy to indulge me: she will be wanting to crawl away and get into whatever her sister is playing with.  For now, she is totally enamored with me and everything I do, so I am taking advantage and soaking up all of her love and adoration- it will be gone too soon!

happy sweet six months to my little sugar pop.

people i love | bloomington normal photographer

over thanksgiving (that’s right, i said thanksgiving) i had the pleasure of photographing a few of my own loves.  my big brother and his beautiful wife and cutie pie son, who i absolutely adore.  my sister in law is a talented photographer as well, but like most of us, is usually behind the lens instead of in front of it- so we had some fun at my parents’ house getting some family photos!

i love you all so much and miss you like crazy!  thank you for being patient with me in getting these to you!
