I adore Danielle!  She was referred to us by Angela (see her blog post for her Mommy & Me session by clicking here).  We’ve been talking about taking pictures of her kids for 3 months before we actually got together to do it!  The running joke was that we’d get the pictures done before Christmas, as we had to cancel a few times due to the weather.

A hot, HOT, HOTTTT Sunday we went out to take pictures of the kids.  Did I mention it was hot?!?!  The kids arrived ready to go.  It was clear from the start that we were going to have our hands full and I knew with the heat the kids wouldn’t last long.  The kids did well, but you can see the sweat level progress and the poor baby was just having NONE of it.  NONE OF IT, people.  She couldn’t stand the heat.

A few days after our shoot, Danielle brought the baby to the house for some quick pictures in this adorable outfit and headband she purchased.  We had to get pictures in this outfit and I was real pleased with how the pictures turned out.  Plus, the baby responded much better to the nice cool indoors.  🙂

We’ve been toying with the idea of converting one of our spare rooms into a photography studio to offer our clients in-studio sessions.  It was clear after this shoot that we MUST do this.  So, many thanks to Danielle for solidifying our idea.  I’m excited for the new studio space – I’m going crazy at Home Goods, TJMaxx, and on Etsy…as well as all the yard sales in the area.  We’re gonna be stocked!  We’ll be working over the next few weeks on converting the space…cleaning, painting, organizing…We’ll be offering mini-sessions for Christmas pictures in November – using the new studio space!!

Here are some pictures of our shoot with Danielle & Jason’s adorable children!

Sweat level was growing….
