Our friends The Bennetts recently welcomed a new little guy into their family, and I was lucky enough to photograph them all together at their lovely new house!  Check out little Grayson’s adorable grin…
So cute to see Ava in her new big sister role, taking care of her little brother.  Congratulations, guys!! :)

Haha… this is what I get for telling Audrey, “Dooon’t smile!” :)

 
My sister and I took our girls to Golden Gardens for a little fun at the beach… so happy that summer decided to show up again (at least for a day or two!).

This is Ava’s trademark pose… adorable!! :)

Ava’s mom, Liz, wanted to surprise her husband with some new portraits of his little girl for his birthday – of course, we were happy to oblige, but it was really hard keeping them hidden away until after the big reveal! :)  Such a great gift, no?!

Kristen wore the perfect BCBG dress for a couple of updated profile shots – SO cute, no?!

Now that a family portrait trade with our sis-in-law, Kristen, has become an annual tradition, we all have fun planning ahead and thinking about the details of our sessions… what to wear, where to shoot, etc. (Okay, I’ll be honest – Kristen & I do all the styling stuff & the boys just have to show up with their smiles… ;)

Anyway, we had an awesome time running around town, chasing the last of the beautiful September light with them – and we’re so excited to finally post their pictures!We finished up their session down at the Seattle waterfront… I can just smell the salty air looking at these again! :)

They gathered the family together for some holiday shots as well… big brother Max is always on the go! :)

Hello, hello!!  If it feels like we’ve been behind on posting lately, it’s because we have… our wedding season started early this year (a gorgeous February affair is coming soon!!:) and then Sally spent a few days at the amazingly huge WPPI trade show in Vegas – which provided us with countless new product ideas and other fun stuff we’ll be sharing before long!

Until then, though, please enjoy some photos of a little baby session from back in December. You might remember The McDoles from their fun family session earlier this year, where Kelli’s adorable belly was documented for posterity… and now their beautiful little Aisley is here, and she couldn’t have been a more precious subject. :)
