I had the pleasure of photographing this little guy today. He fought sleep for awhile but we finally won in the end! Introducing beautiful, 2 week old, Baby K!
I hope you like them Grandma Sue! I’ll finish editing the rest and let you know when the private gallery is ready for viewing.

I had a great time taking maternity pictures of Jennifer today. We had a blast taking a TON of photos over about a 4 hour stretch in the studio. I was a picture taking machine! LOL I even worked through lunch, I was so excited. That’s something for me! ha ha
Anyway, here are a few from today.
(Warning – Parental Guidance recommended when viewing some of these photos!)
I hope you like them Jennifer! I’ll let you know when the rest of the photos are available for viewing in your private gallery.

She is gorgeous. You did an amazing job with these Shanna, stunning.
What a natural beauty Jennifer is! Awesome job on this shoot… also what an adorable toddler she has!
Okay, so I didn’t get a chance to read those books yet! My husband surprised me with a weekend getaway for my birthday (Isn’t he sweet?) . :) Anyway, we were busy having fun as a family this weekend instead. (Much better than laying in bed all weekend!) We ended up going to Kakadu National Park. We stayed in a hotel that was in the shape of a crocodile (cool!). We went hiking up a mountation side to see some 5000 year old aboriginal paintings (very cool!). We went on a cruise and saw TONS of wildlife…including a 3.5 meter crocodile (SCARY!)! I grabbed my kids and ran to the middle of the boat so the croc didn’t spot them and think it was time for a snack! And, best of all, we hung out at the hotel pool together (LOVED IT!). Here are a couple of snaps of my family. I just LOVE these people!
I think Jolie got a bit cold but she wouldn’t get out of the pool!…LOL
This picture makes my heart melt…
Awesome eye contact in both! They’re such beautiful little girls. I love your skin smoothing, normally I’m not a big fan but you do such a great job. The second picture is so sweet!
Sounds like a great weekend (happy birthday!) and your girls are as beautiful as ever.
Good grief! Those eyes are amazing!
omg those EYES! Great shots!
Beautiful photos! I LOVE their eyes!
Those eyes are to die for!!
I LOVE, LOVE that shot of Jolie!! It may be one of my favorite shots of her ever!! And Jemma is such a honey.
What a fun weekend! You sound like you had a blast:)
Wow!! Beautiful girls and amazing photos – the eyes are amazing!
Aww! These are WONDERFUL!!! Your girls are both getting so big!
Beautiful eyes! These are some cutie kids!
Such sweet little “models”. It sounds like you had a wonderful birthday (Happy birthday!) and the books can wait!
You’ll so appreciate those shots when they get older. Little J is starting to look a lot like big J.
I love, love these photos – such beautiful eyes. Sounds like a great family time.
Wow, their eyes are just gorgeous!!! Beautiful shots! :)
Awww, my Boos look so cute!
Okay, so I’ve heard a lot about this series of books and so far I’ve managed to steer clear. Apparently they are addictive and once you start reading them, you won’t want to put them down until you finish ALL of them. Sleeping, eating, laundry…it can all wait…LOL
Well, I’ve decided to succumb to peer pressure and start reading them. I bought the first book for my hubby at Christmas time and he never got into it. That could be because he waited until he was in the bath to start reading it and fell asleep every time…LOL I have friends that have told me, if I start to read them, I should be prepared to drop everything until they are done and that I better have all of them at hand so that I don’t have to take time away from reading to go to the store to buy the next one…LOL!
Anyway, I have a plan…I went shopping today…It’s my birthday next weekend and I’m going to take some time out for me. I plan to read them all next weekend! My husband is taking Friday off of work to spend the day with me on my birthday…do you think I should tell him that he’ll be watching the kids while I hide in the bedroom reading four books all weekend? LOL
Stay tuned for my book report…
(Thanks for talking me into it Amy…LOL)
Hope you enjoy them. I was a little disappointed but I am int he minority!!
Enjoy!
Good plan – they are quick/easy reads which make them even more fun. Enjoy!
Sounds like a great plan to me!
Ooooh… I have been holding off too! I can’t wait for the book report so I can decide what to do. Have a happy birthday!
I just finished them three day ago and it took me 12 days.
They’re so good! I read them all in about a week. See you in a few weeks lol! Enjoy!
I love hiding away with a good book! Enjoy your reading:)
Read the first book – haven’t started the second one yet – good luck – you will love these!! ;)
Have fun! They aren’t great fiction, but they are a fun read. Once you get going you’ll speed right through them. Reading is the best vacation ever.
I haven’t read any of them yet either… I am trying to have willpower! LOL! I am soooo tempted though… I bet you will love them.
YAY! Can’t wait to see what you think!
Fun picture! I thought the books were enjoyable and a fun read. My DD loves the series and certainly has been caught up in the Twilight hoopla.
I have to tell you, they are not going to win any literary awards but they sure were a guilty pleasure of mine!!
Sorry sweetie; no time for books with the “extravaganza” planned for you!
Oh good, we will all have something to talk about when you come in August!
Here are a few little snapshots from our Easter weekend…
These are so great Shanna! What wonderful details of your Easter celebration! Happy Easter! :)
A KINDER EGG? I LOOOOOVE those. We used to love them when we lived overseas. How cool. That paint stencil looked really cool too. I liked seeing what in their baskets.
Great shots of your Easter. Love that paper plate bunny!
I love the first one! Such pretty eggs.
These are great captures of your Easter! I love the little details!
Eater fun! Yay! Hmm saw the Kinder eggs in the basket. I LOVE those. They don’t have them around here. I grew up on them.
These are too cute! Looks like you guys had a fun Easter! :)
These are so vibrant and clear! Love the little Easter details!!!
Great captures! The egg stencil kit looks fun! I need to find one for next year!
Shanna, I love all these detail shots! The Kinder egg is great, hopefully there was a good prize in it. I love the shot of Peter Rabbit. What’s an Egg Flip???
It looks like your Easter basket was filled to the brim! I just love all of the great colors, and the great little toys you used to fill it up.
The Easter Bunny was very nice! Wow! lots of gifts!!
Great pictures! I love that stencil kit.
Great Easter shots! The egg stencils are so cute, I’ve never seen those. :)
What a sweet collection of photos together. This would make a wonderful scrapbook page. . .
