Cuttie Pie Emilou

There are just so many good pictures from Ashtyn and Emilee's session, so I had to post some more. Here are my favorites of Emilee by herself. She is SO animated and I think I captured that pretty well. (She is a perfect example of why you don't teach your child to say CHEESE) Luckily, once she was being herself and forgot I was taking her picture, her expressions really started to shine!
This is her surprised face.
She was looking for rain.

I love these next several at the junk yard. She had a ball in this old truck.

She's "dying" laughing ... but just wait.
This is just hysterical! She is showing me what "cracking up" is, lol.



I love this sweet grin.
A favorite for sure. Just look at those blue eyes!



Emilee is a little tomboy and princess all wrapped up in one little 3 year old. She dances and loves to play dress up, but also loves to pick up bugs and worms and play in the mud. (hopefully I will get to do a lifestyle shoot with her doing all these things soon) Anyway, she found a rolly polly while we were shooting. So cute!


Doesn't this shot make you hold your breath :)
... and exhale!

This might be my favorite one of Em. Isn't she just so adorable!

Oh, the places a photograph can go ...


What do you think? Would seniors and teens dig this, or is it too much?

Missed one ...

Sorry, I know ya'll are on Ashtyn overload, but I accidentally deleted one and its my favorite! I love her natural smile ... Yes, I am that funny!

America's Next Top Model

... at thirteen? We (well I know I did) had SO much fun during this session. This makes me excited for senior sessions, although I know there is no way I will always luck out with such a beautiful subject! Ashtyn got her braces off just three days before our session so she was ready to show off that beautiful smile! While editing these I just couldn't believe how grown up she is getting. I was 13 when she was born!!!! It feels like just yesterday I was toting her around on my hip showing her off to all my middle school friends. Some of them actually still ask about Ashtyn (the beautiful baby that looked like a Cabbage Patch Doll!) Just typing this makes me a little sad. Ok, enough from me. The pics speak for themselves ... and there are plenty bc I couldn't decide! I love you Ashtyn!No teeth here, but I just love this sweet look.



Rockstarish ... and she very well could be. This girl's got a great voice!
Faith Hill shot a music video here!

There's that "money" smile Mark wanted me to get!




Yes, she is only 13, I promise


Because I am really indecisive today, the next two are the same photo in color and bw, which is your favorite?



We played on the railroad tracks and Ashtyn was so scared, it was hilarious! Everytime a car came by she would jump up. She was also a ballerina ... can you tell?

One of my favorites!
Aunt Loree just pulled over one day and asked this guy if we could take pictures in his junkyard. I'm glad I have her because I would be way to embarrassed to ask!

I teased Ashtyn that there might be a mouse in the truck and this was her reaction ... so funny!
Ashtyn probably wont like this next one, but I LOVE it. The next two remind me that she is only 13.


Sorry Ash, had to post at least ONE of you in a dress. She HATES dresses, lol.
OK, tell me your favorites!

Talley Girls Continued ...

Here are the rest of my favorite images of Ashtyn and Emilee together. There are SO many great ones of Ash and Em by themselves, so stay tuned for yet, another post from my best session yet! I love you girlies!



Vintage Look. Again, playing with my style.




This was the very LAST photo I took after 2 hours of shooting. I think it turned out pretty cute of the whole Talley clan. We will have to schedule another "family" shoot once everyone recuperates. I love me some Talleys!
I know Ash and Loree are dying for the rest, but just be patient. Hopefully this will hold you over!

Talley Girls PB#5

Meet Ashtyn, 13, and Emilee, 3 1/2 ... Those of you who know me know this family is basically family (no need to get technical ;) ) I never know whether to call Ash and Em my nieces or cousins. Again, no need to get technical. OK. I know my Aunt Loree is dying to see these and since I have teased her a couple of times already, I had to get a few up today. So, here is a sneak peek. I will complete their "real" blog as soon as I get a chance. I could seriously blog their whole session, but here are a "few" favs of them together. I love that the "Big Sis, Little sis" relationship really shines through in these.


Another favorite. I had to use some fun techniques on this one. Very "Rockstarish".

Because people like to know (and its always different from the family I'm photographing), this is my absolute favorite! Very Candid and natural.
I said it was only a small peek. Stay tuned for lots more! Oh, and leave comments ;)
