These four were troopers – the day we shot these was a COLD one!!! By the time we finished shooting everyone was shivering and pink-nosed :) Thankfully, we got some darling pics of them in exchange!

These three are the brother/sister-in-law/nephew of some of my favorite clients, so I was super excited to meet them! They definitely didn’t disappoint either ;) I loved watching Chad & Katie interact with Luke – so much love and affection! :)

Holy cow. This was pretty much my ideal senior shoot. Gorgeous girl with a super fun personality. Way fun vintage clothes. Amazing weather. Beautiful light. Does it get any better?? Seriously. I had so much fun with you Sam! Hope you love your photos :)

Shelby & I did this super fun shoot ages ago and I just realized I never blogged it! I love her sunshiney smile! :)

I’m so excited for sweet Lauren & Brent’s baby boy to arrive! I’ve just loved working with them on several shoots in the past, and I can’t wait to photograph the little fella growing up! You look beautiful, Lauren! :)

I got to meet darling Jacob in the flesh finally at four weeks old, and he’s SUCH a doll with two wonderful parents :) Can’t wait to watch him grow!

I love shooting our wonderful friends, Josh, Melissa & Easton every year! Sully has kind of thing for Easton, and we think the whole family is just awesome :) Could those little pigtails be any more adorable??

I’ve shot Mr Dexter’s family now since his 5 year old sister, Maddie, was in her mama’s belly still! I just love these guys and was soooo excited to finally be available to capture one of their birthday parties. Dexter’s mom is an AWESOME event planner and she threw Dexter the, hands down, coolest, most adorable cowboy first birthday party I’ve ever seen! And, the best part is – she’s available to help with your kiddo’s parties too! Check out her website here!

And, so sorry…this is a MONSTER post!!! Leave a comment and tell me how darling this party was! :)

Other fantastic vendors for this party included-
Oklahoma Joe’s BBQ catered the yummy meal
Phyllis Hildebrant made the beautiful cake
Pony rides provided by Cathie’s Custom Ponies
Darling vintage rentals from Brossi Belle
Party planning & design & everything else fabulous by White Lily Kids

Hello blog! It’s been awhile (you know how I am ;). I’m back with Katie’s gorgeous Coquette session! Katie was in town for a bachelorette party and managed to get up at the crack of dawn to come look sexy in my backyard – seriously, we shot this at like 6:30am! I think she did a fantastic job and I’m just loving those pretty purple weeds we have growing around :)

When Kevin (an old college buddy of mine) told me he FINALLLLLY popped the question to Sara, I was so excited for them both! I was excited for me, too, though because I got to head out to Cali with Sam & Sully to photograph/enjoy their beautiful wedding! It was a gorgeous day and I’m so happy for you guys :) Hope you love the photos as much as I do!

I just adore Amanda! She did a fabulous senior session in the country last fall and decided she wanted a city shoot as well, so we met up downtown and got some great shots there too! Is she not the cutest thing ever? Love it!

I had a great time seeing Erin again & finally meeting her darling Henry (Hank) and fabulous hubby! So excited for them, too, because Erin is expecting…again! Can’t wait for another playdate with you three…four ;)

Holly is adorable. In fact, when she contacted me about maternity photos, I instantly remembered her AMAZING abs which I shot during her Coquette session with me waaaaaay back in 08. Now her abs are doing something much more impressive than just looking pretty as she’s carrying her second (sure to be darling) baby! I had such fun with these three and am stoked for a playdate so Sully can meet cutie Jett :) Can’t wait to see the sweet little new one!!

Meet beautiful, ridiculously long-legged Ellie :) Ellie is the neighbor of some of my favorite past clients. I love it when I get to shoot the friends and families of past clients – it’s so much fun getting to meet the whole circle! Happy graduation, Ellie!

I absolutely love Jill! She is my fantastic, miracle-worker of a chiropractor and Sully & I just love seeing her to get us all back in line and feeling good! Her darling hubby Kyle is also a super-amazing chiropractor so I highly suggest checking the two of them out at Gulledge Family Wellness!

Anyway, these two are expecting their first little baby boy and needed some photos to commemorate the occasion! Since Jill’s bump was still so little I think we’ll do another session as she gets closer to delivering. Either way, are they the cutest or what??

Here’s my real boy, doing what he does best – getting dirty and playing hard :) What does your kiddo love? Email me at kelley@kelley-photo.com to capture your real kid, doing what they really do!

Hello, beautiful Hanna! Does this girl have some awesome abs or what?? ;)

My love for Dexter’s family is well-documented over the many shoots I’ve done with them and his big sister, Maddie! Such a sweet (and super cute) bunch of people – I’m so excited everytime I hear it’s time for another shoot of their little cuties! :)

How ridiculously cute is little Charli?? She’s obviously gotten her mama’s sass ;) Can’t wait to have her back so she and Sully can play and have another Sesame Street date night!

Meet Curtis – Disneyland actor, son of one of my best friends, aspiring model, and all around nice guy :) We shot around my old stomping grounds in the City Market on a deceptively cool day last month. LOVE those shots in the front window of River Market Antiques Mall – great for photos and for shopping ;)
