happy halloween

it's about time my favorite time of the year rolled around! i looooove halloween! just fyi. and what is even more exciting than dressing up, carving pumpkins, tons of candy, and pumpkin spice lattes is knowing that after halloween there is only more fun to come. at least if you ask me! tasty thanksgiving goodness (a meal i look forward to every single year), amazing decorations, more delicious starbucks coffee flavors, and lots and lots of family time for the holidays. it's by far my favorite time of year! i know you know this because i've said it plenty of times before. i only repeat this over and over because it's so very true!

i got to take a little trip with two of the cutest kids in the world, drake and paige! we went to a local pumpkin patch at Cypress United Methodist Church, and had some fall fun of our very own! well really they had most of the fun, and i tagged along to capture! but i can't complain, because it's honestly so much fun for me to capture the happiness of others.  now.. get excited to check out some of these pumpkin paint designs, they were nothing short of amazing! at the patch, there was a barn of animals, a giant turkey, the sesame street crew, dorothy and her friends from the wizard of oz, a football team, and even woody and buzz from toy story. i'm tellin' ya, this pumpkin patch was top notch! i can't wait to check it out again next year. Cypress UMC also has a fall festival that looks like loads of fun. if you're in the cypress area - or even if you aren't, but are willing to make a little drive, i suggest you check out their patch and their festival! the kid in me had a blast!

thanks for tagging along with me on our adventure! on that note, i hope your weekend was amazing and that you have an incredibly fun, yet safe HALLOWEEN!

Two Tots Too Cute For Words

Well Ya'll... I had hoped to finish the gorgeous wedding this week to share with you guys, but it looks like it will be early next week before I can share the blog post with you guys. SO! Until then then, check out two photos from my session with the charming tot-duo I had earlier this week. Of course, as always, these two will get their own dedicated post later on - but until then, adore these beautiful sneak peeks. I just love children! I always wonder who they will become later on in life while I'm editing their photos. I have had the pleasure of shooting both Paige and Drake's newborn photos, and it's been an amazing journey to watch them grow! I'm so excited to continue to capture their milestones throughout their lives.

Drake here is in his halloween costume, and I just love love love this photo. For some reason it reminds me of John Wayne. What do you guys think? 

And here is big sister Paige! She adores the camera, and I'll tell you what - this camera loves her back! She is such a little ham, and my camera and I just eat it up!
