I'm probably going to share <i>way</i> too many photos in this post from my sister-in-law's maternity shoot. But there were <i>so many</i> awesome outfits and accessories that she brought for us to play with and I loved them all! </div>

This family is so special to me. Mom and I became friends in high school and are even better friends now than we were then. We vacation together, let our kids play together, and share the ups and downs of parenthood together. Given the fact that I know them so well, this was a really fun shoot...we can really be ourselves around each other. </div>

That was the last frame I shot that day and I think it may be my favorite from the shoot. Baby brother was <i>done</i> with photos by this point, but when his mama was holding him, he still gave me the sweetest smile! </div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15981869073359271864noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935487892568532890.post-68613900438335908872012-02-29T13:00:00.001-06:002012-02-29T13:00:11.221-06:00The H Family | Dallas Family PhotographerThis session took place on the most beautiful day in February in our area. It was sunny and about 68 degrees. Perfect. And especially so since two days earlier we had to reschedule due to rain! Everyone was out at the park during our session...even Troy Aikman!<br />
<br />
This little guy is weeks away from turning 1 year old! It seems like his <a href="http://rachelcookephotographyblog.blogspot.com/2011/03/baby-mark-dallas-newborn-photographer.html">newborn session</a> was just yesterday. <br />

Little M had just taken his first steps on his own the week of the session. You can tell he wants to just take off! This stage where they just start to get their legs under them is so cute...and doesn't last very long. I loved capturing some of those "walking" moments with him and his parents. <br />

I feel so lucky that I was able to do this session. This mom is a dear friend of mine from high school and she and her husband and little O live out of state. We were able to sneak the session in the evening before Thanksgiving. And I got to meet O for the first time! What an absolute <i>sweetheart</i> he is! Poor little guy was worn<i> out</i> from traveling the night before, but he didn't hardly cry at all. And he managed a few grins for us! Besides photographing my own kids, taking photos of friends and their kids is such a thrill for me. So, thanks guys! (Get ready for <i>a lot</i> of photos...)</div>

I love this family and it was one of those sessions where I really have a hard time narrowing down the shots to feature on the blog. It shows in the number of photos in this post. I just loved the whole session. I have had the privilege of watching these two kiddos grow up and have taken their photos along the way, which is one of my most favorite things! </div>

The <a href="http://rachelcookephotographyblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/c-family-sachse-family-and-maternity.html">last time I saw this family in front of my camera</a>, it was for maternity photos and they were still a family of three. Now that those TWINS are here, they're a bit bigger family! Those kiddos couldn't have better or cuter for the session. I seriously could not keep from smiling when I was editing these...cuteness overload!</div>

This guy is 5 years old now and mom wanted to document this milestone with a photo session. I would be hard pressed to find a more willing subject than this guy. He had loads of smiles and giggles and followed me around all over the place during the session. Such a trooper...and probably a heartbreaker one day judging by some of these looks!</div>

This family session was so much fun. They are dear friends of ours, so of course I enjoyed spending an hour with them. What troopers they were in the heat, too. We worked some to get little B to smile, but he gave up quite a few of them. And Miss K was quite ready for her close up, which made my job easy. I love the colors they chose for their outfits and I loved how laid back they were at the session. Happy 10th anniversary to mom and dad too! So happy to get these guys in front of my camera again!</div>

She was as sweet as can be and her parents are total naturals. It was so much fun to play with her. I LOVE this first shot of mom and baby looking at each other. Precious.

<br /><div style="text-align: justify;">This fabulous tutu was a gift for little Caroline from a family member (an aunt, I <span style="font-style: italic;">think</span>). Mom requested that we use it in a couple of shots and I love how it looks on her. Personal props are the best because they make your photos more personal. Love it.

And because they are just sweet girls! They are really into tea parties right now so their mom and I thought it would be so much fun to commemorate that with a tea party photo shoot. They are the easiest kids to work with, truly. As you can see, they both have gorgeous smiles and they <span style="font-style: italic;">know</span> how to do a tea party! This session was so much fun and I loved catching them at doing something they love. There are a lot of "favorites" here because I just could not narrow it down any more.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason45blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason19blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason23blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason57blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason51blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason25blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason85blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i615.photobucket.com/albums/tt238/rachelcookephotography/Eason95.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935487892568532890.post-3462704297210128382011-06-20T10:34:00.002-05:002011-06-20T10:44:53.702-05:00Let's Hear it For the Boys! | I Heart FacesSince I've got two boys, I'm loving this week's challenge at <a href="http://www.iheartfaces.com/">I Heart Faces</a>.
