I had to take Sunday off- it's getting crazier and crazier around here and that rest was invaluable. But I'm excited to announce the last category for the contest- FAMILIES!

I am so, so encouraged by all the voting that's been going on- some of you have built up legitimate campaigns, haha! Don't forget to KEEP VOTING through December 24 at midnight!

Here are the other categories:

Here are the fun families I've had the pleasure of photographing this year! I consider most of my family photoshoots "playtime"...and I love getting to watch how they all interact. It's really about the relationships for me. Enjoy!

I realized I had forgotten one of my most recent sessions in the lineup! I didn't feel right about leaving it out- this is such a beautiful family and they deserve a chance to win too! So, to be fair, I am tallying the already-placed votes from the first day and resetting the poll. The point totals below will be added to the final count. Thanks everyone for understanding!
