JOSH - class of 2013

here's josh to kick off the class of 2013 senior portraits!  and guess what.....  this handsome guy is my NEWPHEW!  i am super duper excited to share these next several blog entries :0)  i spent a whole week with my mom, brothers and their families at a family reunion in north carolina!  i have been looking forward to this for weeks!!  

i hardly ever see my nieces and nephews so the opportunity to capture them all on camera was pretty awesome!  each night i ran away with one brother and his family.  of couse while this is going on the rest of the crew is back at the lake house tearing it up on the lake so it was a challenge to pry them away from all of that!  they were pretty good sports about it though...

i've still got over 1800 photos to look through.  watch for more peterson brothers & their adorable kiddos - plus i've got some fun photos we took that week on the lake wakeboarding, kneeboarding, riding waverunners, wakesurfing, etc....  you get the picture.  we had a BLAST!

................... and now here's JOSH!  

and here is my niece EMILY.......  stunning, huh?  and the rest of the family :)  oh if we only lived closer.

prom 2012!

you know you're getting old when your child goes to the prom... and you could swear it was just yesterday that YOU went??  (except i didn't get ready for my WEDDING the way gals get ready for prom these days...)  

it has been a fun and exciting time at our house :)  and all of us us parents had a great time capturing a few photos before the group headed off to dinner & the dance.  the guys were perfect gentlemen and pretty darn handsome too!

marco.... class of 2011!

marco's session was very WET! we kept thinking it would stop raining...... and eventually it did (sort of), but it was definitely a trick to keep my camera dry.  marco had the serious face down.  he's involved in drama and i bet he's really good at it!

dallin! class of 2011....

believe it or not i've known dallin since he was a little boy! we were neighbors in arizona and now we all live here... he's grown up tall & handsome! glad to know he and his family - they're awesome! congrats dallin :)

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!
