parker

Parker is one of the coolest babies!

The reasons:

-He loves his 'great' aunt Amee! :)

-He's so mellow that he will just hug and cuddle with just about anyone.

-He doesn't cry.....well I've never heard him cry. (I'm sure Christy could tell me different!)

-He loves to suck on his bottom lip. (Which makes for some cute pictures. It seems to bring out those awesome chubby, little cheeks!)

-He loves his 'great' aunt Amee! (Oops! :) I think I mentioned that one already.)

-He seems to have fun (or seems content) on whatever is going on, even when Autumn comes in with some excitement for him!

-He's just adorable! (Need I say more!)

Here comes Autumn for a hug!

Somebody help! He's about to be tackled and he has no idea!

There is a sequence to this picture, but I just couldn't decide which pictures to post, so I posted this one because I love the look on his face! Don't worry though, there were about 3 sets of hands ready to help him get out of this! :)

One of my favorites...

Isn't he just so dang cute! Pouty face and all!

He loves his great grandpa!

And we can't forget about Cannon!

one more of autumn...

I can't believe I forgot to post one of my favorites of Autumn! I love this picture! She couldn't get enough of all the flower petals laying all over the ground after Staci and Andrew's wedding reception. So everyone started throwing them up in the air at her and she would just gasp with excitement! So cute!

Imagine a little tinker bell with no wings to fly around with, but instead, has these little feet that she uses to glide along the ground with! Well, meet Autumn. She is this little tinker bell. She runs wherever she goes on her little tippy toes with her arms dangling somewhat behind her. And this little one is fast!! When she moves, she doesn't even look like she's moving her feet. I was told that she didn't crawl at all, she just started running!

Well, I managed to grab a few shots of her in the small amount of time I was with her.

And did I mention she's my 'great' niece and very, very cute!

Notice the tippy toes?!

This is one of my favorites!

And this one! I just love the look on her face here.

staci & andrew wedding: part 2

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful family! My beautiful niece, Staci, was married in Mesa on September 7th. I was honored when her mom (my sister, Cindy) called and asked if I would be the photographer of this most important day. I think I said, "Me, are ya'll sure?!" :)

I was so happy that I could be there with Staci and her new husband and help celebrate their new life together. You can just see how much they love and care for each other! They are such 'cool' people! One moment they're hi-fivin' each other, the next, they're holding each other in their arms, or just laughing, and hanging out with friends! Their personalities just seem to compliment each other.

The day couldn't have been any more perfect!

Where they were married...

You can just feel the love they have for each other!

Little details at the reception...

They had this amazing chocolate fountain there, with anything you could imagine to dip chocolate in! If I wasn't so busy snapping away, I think I would have just pulled up a chair!

Their first dance...

Father and daughter dance... I love the look on her face here!

And here!

I absolutely love this one with her grandpa! (My awesome Dad! :)

And, we can't forget about friends!

Aren't they just so awesome together!

Staci and Andrew, thank you so much for letting me capture all the fun moments of your special day! I'm so glad I was able to come and be a part of it. I wish you both the best!

Love, Aunt Amee :)
