We saw this gorgeous two year old and his pregnant parents at Chocolate Fish one day, and told them how much we’d like to photograph them. We got a call a couple months later after little sister was born and got to take these photos today. Are we the luckiest or what?!!

When we get to photograph kids each year for the holidays, I’m always amazed at how much they’ve grown. These three didn’t look much different from last year but their personalities were so much more evolved and exciting.

Going to photograph Anna (and her parents) is a session I look forward to all year long. She is spunky and playful and exudes this energy and personality that is unmatched by any other little person I’ve met, not to mention she is jaw droppingly beautiful.

We are so lucky to be able to photograph these brothers each year! They are so funny with loads of personality and they just happen to be beautiful (it’s not hard to see why when you take a peek at mom and dad).

Cast Images just signed this little ball of energy-meet Lukas. He had more energy than a six pack of Red Bull and jumped off of any/all surfaces we put him on.
