We have a new baby in the neighborhood!!!
Grandma and Grandpa couldn't be more proud...see this sweet pose with his hand by his face? Antonio has been posing like this since he was in utero...sonogram images always had hands by his face! LOVE!
Sweet mom and baby boy.
Dad and baby Antoinio...
And a quick shot just hanging out on his spec...
Sweet baby Antonio joined the outside world during the blizzard! 13 inches of snow. 9 cm of dilation. Hours and Hours and Hours. He is here! Big brother--just enamored with his little brother!
I think the feeling is mutual...
They are just so sweet! Welcome to the outside world, sweet baby! We are so glad you are here!
This family gathered together for some family time and invited me to capture some memories.
It might have been 13 years since they took a family photo. But look at these two!
A couple more shots looking at a family album with some of the grandkids.
Thank you, Weber family, for trusting me with your memories!
This senior had state soccer, and work, and all the littler siblings with busy schedules, so we waited to grab some Senior portraits.
Wow was it BRISK this morning! But his smile just warms my heart. Love this image, because you can see the frost on the grass!
Such a good sport...this shot was SMOKIN!!
You've worked hard, Stone. I'm certai...
This senior is involved in all. the. high. school. things. sports. yearbook. strong academics. so finding the perfect fall time to grab her senior photos was a little tricky. But! We found gorgeous colors!

We hit a couple of other locations that we talked and planned to fit her hopes and dreams. And they were all AMAZING. I love seeing bits of her personality shine through.
STOP IT! So gorg....
Raise your hand if you think last night was a glorious peek into fall? So cool, I found myself looking for fall leaves. Nope! It's still August. Glorious too because I snuck out with this beautiful and insightful Senior.
I just loved chatting with her...listening to how she helps with leading freshman at her school and starting to think of what...
So much fun planning and figuring out what reflects best this young lady's personality. Nature and beauty? Check.
More nature, creekside? Check.
Sporty/athletic/adventurous/fun? Check.
(by the way, that one in the creek might be one of my favorite images.):) Fun with a little bit of sassiness? Check.
I love that all that we did reflecte...

We met and talked and planned. And because it was before the rest of the wo...
The second stop on my Seniors 2024 journey was with this inspiring young lady.
And I'm supposed to be picking out some of my favorites. But that's not such an easy task because her joy makes ALL of them my favorites!
She has such a bright future at (God-willing) one of my favorite colleges. Go Ravens!
She already uses her gifts to glorify...
I met with this sweet family. It was 91 degrees but look how cute they are! You can't even tell that it's hot! And. Why aren't they fighting? They actually like each other!!

Not sure if any of these are my favorites. I just love so...
I couldn't ask for a better kick off to 2024 Senior Season than this beautiful senior! And so much fun! Her faith is first in her life. So first stop? Church!
