I was so excited to photograph Amie! She does crossfit, and man is she toned! She's training to be an Olympic lifter, so I was challenged to capture the feminine as well as the fierce side of her, not too hard since she's a beautiful, strong woman. Here are a few of my favorites.

Week two of the #100portraits100weeks challenge! I was so lucky to visit my darling friend, and compadre in mischievousness in New Orleans! Man, do I love NOLA. What a great city. Friendly people, beautiful weather, art and music coming out of every crack of paving stone and pushing through the bricks. Love me some southern charm! I loved photographing my love and her family.
Little Doll-Face is such a daddy's girl!
Aren't they cute!?!?!
Those smiles!!!
Of course we made time to play in the leaves!
For the first week of my challenge, I took portraits of my beautiful friend Amy and her son. Amy had shared a painting on her Facebook page of a mama cuddling her baby, and asked me to replicate it. It's a painting by artist Lauri Blank. (As a side note, I think I found a new favorite artist.) Here's her website for more fabulous pictures.

And here's my attempt.
While she was over I took a few more portraits depicting mama's life.
One of the best things about photographing women is some of the fun and beautiful dresses I get to photograph. Annie picked up this vintage dress when she was 10 with the intention of wearing it to prom. I insisted on a few impromptu photos and here a few of what we got!

I am an aunt! I've been an aunt for several months, but since I'm a slow blogger I'm just getting around to showing the portraits from my brother and his wife's maternity shoot. I LOVE my little nephew. He's the cutest thing ever! His little dimpled chin and his big, blue eyes. I know I can't do glamour portraits for a little boy, but I'm going to get photos of him soon! Here's a few of my favorites from the maternity shoot.

The bond between mothers and daughters -- I have two daughters of my own, and the love we have for each other overwhelms me. I know that there's phases, and ebbs and flows to every relationship, but my love for my daughters grows fiercely each day. It's a wild, beautiful love. Photographing mothers and daughters is probably my favorite type of photo session. It's a privilege to capture that relationship.
