Belz/Morgan Family: 7.25.2014

Meet the Belz family!  Well, it's the Belz extended family, and then the Morgan family as well!  Chelsea (Belz) Morgan and I go wayyyyyy back.  We played softball together when we were 9 years old!  We have since reconnected after both having little ones about 6 months apart, and have become great friends.  I sure wish she lived closer--New York is too far away!

We both are blog-lovin' fools (you can check out her blog here), and love sharing all of our lives' happenings with the world.  When Chelsea told me she was coming to STL this summer and wanted me to do some family pics for her, I was ecstatic!  YES!  Of course I would!  Her family is like the cutest family EVER, and I just want to squeeze her little girl Lily!  So.darn.cute.  And her brother Brendan was in town from South Africa (where he lives and works), so it was just the perfect little summer family reunion for some adorable park pics!

Anyways, so we got together on a Friday evening at Kirkwood Park for some family pictures.  Oh boy, I just love how these turned out!  The lighting was great--no just perfect!--and everyone's outfits were adorable and coordinating, and the smiles were contagious!  I told them I was going to forward their outfit choices to future clients who needed help with what colors to wear and coordinate.  I hope you enjoy this family's session as much as I do!

Huck & Patrick: 7.8.2014

My lovely son Patrick and I are currently in Michigan visiting our good buddies Tiff, Ryan, and Huck!  Tiff and I played softball together in college, and we both had little boys about 6 weeks apart in 2013!  Patrick and I decided to road trip it up to Michigan (leaving my hubby behind--he had to work--bummer) to visit with them!

I cannot express my love for their farm enough--it is absolutely gorgeous!  Definitely a photographer's dream.  So many colors and so many backgrounds!

We corralled Huck and Patrick today for a quick little photo shoot--since the weather was gorgeous, sky was looking cool with puffy white clouds, and the boys were in good moods--and I am just LOVING how these turned out!  Enjoy!
