Alisha is such a sweet girl, so when she asked me for some family portraits, I jumped at the opportunity! The Hardy family is so adorable that I didn’t want to stop taking their pictures. Their son is just bursting with personality! I could watch him with his Ninja Turtle moves all day! Their little girl is gorgeous, and the whole Hardy family has the most beautiful deep blue eyes!

The Hardy Family

These guys were a dream to photograph! Not only is the Hardy family basically made up of models, they are so fun to be around as well. We spent the entire session laughing.

I first met Alisha about a month ago.  She is such a sweetheart and so easy to talk to.  Her smile is radiant, and she is such a cute little mama to her son and daughter.

I’d never met Will before we arrived for their session.  He just earned his MBA, which is impressive and such an awesome accomplishment for him.

Their little man is quite the character. He “fought” the post in the field and the sunflowers with sticks he found lying around. He even predicted my posing before I had his parents swing him (which he loved, by the way).  That little guy also loved throwing wood chips into the pond. He was pretty interested in the pond, and at one point I thought he might even jump in. Luckily we all stayed dry!  I loved watching him hold his little sister.  It was so sweet and tender to see how he looked down and gave her a little kiss.

Their daughter is almost seven months old, and I loved her beautiful fair skin and her bright blue eyes!  I feel so lucky when I get to photograph doll babies!  She loved to just look around and take in the view.  I love being able to capture all the little features of babies, because when they grow up (which always happens so fast), Mom can have these memories of her little ones frozen in time.
