My Guy is 11

Holy cow, this kid is almost as tall as I am...  and is so very sweet & so very, very handsome.
He is my most favorite 11 year old.  EVER.

We are so proud of the young man he is!  He is killing the 6th grade (and his dad's wallet with all those A's).  We love ya, my buddy.

A beautiful addition to the family!  Welcome to the family, Sarah.  I love you both very much.

I am so happy for the both of you!  I know that you have found your happily ever after!  

I wish you both the very best in the many years to come.  I am so very proud of you, little brother.    

With lots of Love,

April

Ohio Family {take 2}

One of my most favorite families to photograph!  I was amazed at how much little Sister has changed and how much Brother has stayed the same; she's caught up to him on the growth chart.

I hope that I am able to watch these kiddo's grow for years to come.  

Until next time,

April

Welcome baby A

I look forward to watching her grow in the years to come!

I hope to see you again soon,

Did ya miss me?  :)  I know you did!

Whelp, I got me a J.O.B (on top of my J.O.B).  I have been a SAHM of 4 for as long as I've been an Air Force wife (I will follow him, follow him where ever he may go) and I have been quite content with that.
I love being a mother; its my biggest achievement, my toughest challenge with some of the roughest days of my life.
Photography has been my passion since high school.  I am as passionate about photography as I am my children,  with a strong desire to be better every day.

In a hot, cramped Target studio, I am click'n-a-way doing what I love.  I'm struggling with the "flow" posing, the "tic-tak-toe" layers and making sure I get what I need in 18 frames...  behind a NIKON
(I'm a Canon girl),  I'm struggle'n :)  But I absolutely love it and with time I hope to be great.

I will continue to keep up with my natural light (cause that's where its at) and I will continue to grow as a photographer.  My future is bright!  :)

I am so thankful for what I have!


As I mentioned above...  working with a Nikon...  I kinda feel like a cheater...  I have been so busy that I've not even turned on Ma'Lady in a couple of weeks... yup, ya heard! WEEKS.

until... today :)

Now, if I could just figure out how to bring "me" into the studio...  that would be a great.  

With time, I guess, I will figure it all out and be comfortable no matter the situation, no matter the equipment.  Again, my future is bright!

Thanks for all the continued support!

Until next time,

April
