I love all seasons and all weather! It is a fun way for me to get creative with my images! Every kind of weather is beautiful and it keeps me on my toes! Today it was about to thunderstorm and so Bekka (Ella’s mom) had a great idea! She got out the rain gear for little Ella! It was such a great day and some really fun images! Love this spring rain!

A little sass never hurt! She is a mini fashionista and she LOVES her raincoat!

Love those boots!

She was so full of smiles!

Her adorable accessories!

She is a tiny model!

Hope you enjoyed the images! Leave comments! With the summer weather coming up I can’t wait to have more sessions! I will have a lot to blog so keep up with me!

In this area of the world Ted Haddad is a legend! Everywhere he goes someone knows him and those who don’t want to know him! He is a funny guy who is full of life! Yesterday was his going away party with his Byblos family and I got to be there, what an honor! It truly was a blast and Ted , or Coach, keeps everyone laughing! I have tons of favorites but I can’t post them all,so here are just a few!

The man of the hour~ "Am I embarassing you sweetheart? I’m just getting started!"

Ted hasbeen going to Byblos since it opened in 1989, and these girls have been working there since then as well! They really adore him!

Like I said, he’s always keeping everyone laughing!

Ted and all his Byblos girls and the one Byblos guy!

At the end of the party, Ted made a speech that made everyone laugh and cry including himself!

Like I said it was a good speech!

Before Ted left the Byblos family gave him a t-shirt which they all signed to remember them by!

I had so much fun at your going away party Ted! I hope you have many adventures in your travels and don’t forget to keep laughing!

I’m sure you all remember dapper little Joseph from a few months ago! Well this was a big event in his life and his folks asked me to capture it! Maggy and Jeff had little Joseph dedicated to the Lord and it wasquite the event, most of Jeff’s family came in from out of town and they had a party! There will be tons of pics on this post because of the event itself and then they aked me back a couple of weeks later for a more focused session on just Joseph in his dedication outfit! Here they are!

His cake that his very talented Mom made!

Their beautiful family!!! Joseph also has a cute cousin!!!!

I couldn’t resist putting this in, his cute little sunday shoes!!!

This is the beginning of his more formal session, I love his polka dot rugs!

More details of his sweet nursery, which his Momma painted herself! Like I said she’s talented.

I love snuggly babies in a pile of squishy pillows!

You can tell she loves her boy!

He is one happy little guy, and he loves being outside!

I love this shot, it symbolizes family with the wedding rings and baby hands, so sweet!

I had to throw this in, I love how he’s all smiles then he gets shy

I had so much fun and I hope you all enjoyed the tons of images! I love when I get asked to photograph a family again, it is always fun to see what has changed and to see the little one growing!! Leave comments please!
