The Sokolowski Family invited me to their home for a few moments to photograph some “day in the life of..” photos.  I loved their boys because their personalities reminded me so much of my own children (I seem to find that a lot with the children I photograph reminding me of my own).  They were very sweet boys and I thank them for being themselves when they had never met me   Below are some of my favorites.  Thank you again, Chris and Katherine!  (And thank you, Katherine, for your online friendship which I now look forward to blooming more… )

One of my favorite things is to photograph someone for the second, third, fourth time.  You learn about them, they learn about you and that molds into a client-photographer relationship to carry you on through time.  I love that.  Emily is one of those who I’ve grown to know and love.  She has the most beautiful smile and the prettiest eyes that sparkle.  At this session I also got to shoot her mommy and daddy.  Thank you, Emily, for sharing your mom and dad with me and allowing me to come into your life once again.  Can’t wait for the next time

Tristan and Aidan just had a new baby brother arrive to them about 2 months ago named Keegan.  Their mommy, Nyan, wanted some photos of the three of them for herself and grandparents, something they've never had before.  I was excited to do this for her, not just because I know her, but also because I wanted to meet little Keegan who is just a couple weeks older than Finn (although their due dates were just a few days apart!).  Keegan is adorable!  So tiny and fragile yet so handsome!  He's a sweetie-pie, and you can tell his older brother absolulely ADORE him.  Momma may feel like her life is a bit chaotic now but they say boys always put their mommas first, so one day she's going to be pampered with so much love from "her boys" who will always hold a very special place in their hearts for her.  And knowing Nyan, I know she deserves that.  Thanks again for having me do these for you.  xo ~ Val

Randy and Vickie have been friends of ours for about 6-ish years and I've been dying to take their family photo for that long, so when they finally asked me, I was thrilled!   We had a lot of fun at their shoot and thankfully, Randy was on his best behavior   Thanks, guys….I can't wait to do it again!   Just promise me you won't wait till Chloe's senior pictures, ok?  Hugs and kisses to my favorite neighbors and very dear friends { xoxo } and oh, Maia bugs Neil every night about "going to Chloe's house", so we need to schedule that "play date" soon!  K?

These adorable girls are all cousins.  Olivia and Mya, both, had baby sisters a few months ago, just a few weeks apart.  Their mommies asked me to take their photos of the four of them, so of course, happily I said yes.  I've had the pleasure of shooting Miss Mya since she was born.  She is one of my favorite subjects.  And how could she not be with that face? Cuteness definitely runs in their family.  Check these cuties out!

I have so much catching up to do on my blog!  And I know…I still need to post some shots of my new little man.  I will.  Promise.  In the meantime, I am going to make these posts short and sweet, just like some of my adorable fun little clients. 

Meet Kayla…a spunky blond-haired blue-eyed lookalike to her daddy.  I shot this little sweetie a year ago and here she is today, at the ripe old age of 2. Hope you enjoy xo ~ Val
