Christmas in Minooka

Spent the last couple days in Minooka, and these pictures pretty much sum it up. I did forget to take a picture of the other delicious dinner I made...I am getting good at this cooking stuff. ;) I also was able to take pictures of one of my good friend from high school's little one today. I told her I would have a nice Christmas one up tonight ;) Now I'm off to hang out with my sister who just got here, decorate our tree (last year we did it on xmas eve!) and get ready to get up to go shopping in the morning. Yup, I am a procrastinator, not looking forward to going! Can't wait for the next couple days to share with my fam, nothing is better than the times I have with them :)

Bug. I hate cats, but this one isn't so bad ;)

Gifts....Gabe did good! I tried to be creative with this one, and get the xmas tree in his helmet :D

Travis :)

I might be back on here over the next couple days, if i'm not, everyone have a great Christmas!!! 

Addison | 1 Year Photos

Oh Addison, she definitely warmed up to me this session, by the end...I would smile and she would smile back :) She is so adorable and has some of the sweetest parents. I was so excited, because I was able to use a new prop for this shoot! I also stole some of their furniture, and made Brian carry it around Royal Oak, which was pretty hilarious :) I had so much fun with you and can't wait to show you your sneak peek! I hope you 3 have a great Christmas and I can't wait to see you again soon! ;)

Her cute scrunch face :)

Time to wash up with Daddy.

I thiiink she likes me ;)

This one cracks me up. Kristina- "Don't hire Kathy Davies, she makes you carry furniture around Royal Oak". HAHA. Don't worry, Brian loved it...and it was so worth it ;)

Beautiful girls...

Michelle + Luciano | Maternity Session

I haven't seen Michelle since Junior year of college, so I was soooo excited to see her! She is so fun loving, down to earth and has a contagious smile :) I couldn't wait to see her baby bump and meet her husband, who had just arrived from Italy! We braved the freezing cold, walking around downtown Detroit, and got some great shots! Michelle, it was so great to see you, you two are going to be such great parents and I am so excited for you. I hope you have a great Christmas and like your sneak peek!! ;)

Isn't she the cutest?!?

Their faces crack me up in this one!

Andrew | 1 Year Photos

It looks like I got lucky this trip to Chicago. The Megabus internet has worked on the way there, and now on the way back! I'm so excited to be on the way home, and getting ready for the fun days ahead. My sister comes home tomorrow, then its family Christmas at our house two days in a row. Not to mention, I have some exciting shoots this week and next. Anyways, on to my shoot with Andrew :) Almost a year prior, I was taking Andrew's newborn photos. It is crazy to see how grown up these cuties get. Instead of sleeping the whole time, they are running around, and have started to out smart me! It's okay though, Andrew did great at his session, he was super happy...you can tell by these pics. Chris and Megan, it was so good to see you guys, I hope you 3 have an amazing Christmas and a great new year..you deserve it!!!! xoxo
