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!

EDIT:: Dec. 14, 2009 11:28 pm

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!

shane + ashley • maternity • lubbock, tx

Shane and Ashley are expecting their first baby very soon! We chose a perfect day for their maternity shoot. I loved getting to witness the beautiful light and the beautiful story I got to photograph. This little boy will be much loved! 

I also loves Ashley's wrap shirt from Isabella Oliver. I will definitely be ordering some clothing once it's my turn. And don't you think Ashley looks a bit like Heidi Klum?
