jordan...... class of 2011!

we've had the warmest fall!  i will not lie, it does make my job a WHOLE lot more pleasant if the weather cooperates :)

jordan is awesome.  he lives down the street from me and always has a smile when he drives by!  he was very casual about the whole thing too.  i asked him before our session where he wanted to go and he said, "wherever my mom wants me to go...."

love senior photo shoots.  they're usually pretty low-key, non-stressful events and since rocky mountain still has almost a month til their yearbook deadline......  it's not too late!

preschool in the pumpkin patch ;) + halloween pics!

we love FALL!   learning partners preschool takes a trip to linder farms each year to learn about pumpkins and enjoy the season.  it's SO fun for the kids. (usually the windiest day of the month for some reason so the flying dust has been a challenge).  abby is the happiest bennett child this year since she gets to be like the other kids and go to school!

she picked up several pumpkins and carried them around before she decided on this very special one.  she was very proud of it.  (as you can plainly see)  we had a great time picking out the perfect pumpkins for halloween!




















my little kindergartener got out in time for the field trip!  he was so happy to meet up with miss shelli.  this picture of nate makes me laugh.  he's very curious about pumpkins.  there is a certain fascination about them isn't there?











i just had to stick this one in of abby.......  i wish i could take credit for it.  my daughter lauren took it.  she's in digital photography and spends quite a bit of time snapping some pretty amazing photos around here.  i love this one she caught of abby :)






believe it or not these woody & jessie costumes were worn by my teenagers ten years ago.....  i have to dig out the photo of them and stick it on here.  they were equally cute back then!

i hurried and edited these halloween pics we took a few days before halloween.  thankfully we had nice weather this year and my little toy story characters cleaned up on candy as usual :)  i'm a little biased, but aren't they SO cute? (you have to appreciate how many times my son has tried to knock out his front teeth when you see his smile :)





























THE FULLMER FAMILY........... 37 in all!

so HERE is that BIG FAMILY PORTRAIT I SAVED FOR AFTER CHRISTMAS..... (finally adding in April 2011)







this photo session came complete with thirty seven people...... but you'll have to wait until after to christmas to see the BIG FAMILY PORTRAIT.   it's a present for the beautiful mother of many of the people in these portraits! (lady in red in this first shot - featured there with all of her grandkids)  she should be very proud of the whole GROUP  :)

every time i do a family session i am reminded of the amazing and miraculous thing the family unit is. it is truly inspiring to me! i think that's why i always look forward to this time of the year when i get to capture so many wonderful family portraits.

by the way, you guys were awesome! hopefully you felt it was a fairly painless process :)  stay tuned for the big group!





































we met gabe & toni before we even moved into our house!  they were expecting these adorable twins who are FIVE now.  we've been lucky to live around the corner from them ever since.  we got some great shots of their family after the BIG shoot finished....   thank you toni for letting me photograph your whole family!

of course everybody loves eagle island and it is becoming a huge challenge to try to post original shots.  hopefully you're not tired of some of the fun textures & colors found down there.  you'll see a lot more of it in future posts.  VERY popular spot.
