A Gift for Dad

My dear friend Rochelle wanted to give her husband a picture of her and the kids for Christmas.  I hope he loves it.  He has such a beautiful family.

Some recent portraits

Family Photos at the Park

These were taken at Quartz Mountain Park last weekend.  My friend Mandi did a great job of having everyone in coordinating fall outfits.  She had even made the dress her little girl is wearing that afternoon.  The kids were sweet and patient and, of course, completely adorable.

Four-Year-Old Portraits

     My mom has always said that four was her favorite age.  It really is sweet.  This four-year-old is especially sweet--and photogenic.

The Murphy Boys

      My friend Christa and I had baby boys on the same day down the hall from each other.  Our boys are 18 months old this month, so she asked me to do some portraits of her little guy and some of his big brother.  We had hoped to get pictures of our boys together, but they weren't feeling very cooperative.

Babies and Pumpkins

The boys and I headed to Chilicothe, Texas (coincidentally the birthplace of Keith Chapman--my Dad) today to pick some pumpkins with our friends.  Here are some photos from our trip.

I call this one, "Life on Mars."

Taken near the Texas/Oklahoma border.

Sweet mother and daughter.

Pick'in some pumpkins.

Isn't she angelic?

The cutest fifth grader I know.
