The Trojacek Family PB#6

OK. Now for their "real" post. This family session was so fun! Mica and Jason are good friends of ours and Janae is about 6 months older than Mia Grace. She will be two the end of June. Mica and I and the girls have been getting together every week for a while for "play dates" so I have gotten to know Miss Janae Grace pretty well. She is so full of personality and is always smiling. Here are the rest of my favs from their session. (Their session got cut a little short and you'll see why in the end!)
Mica found these random hay bails on the side of the road. It was perfect for their little "funky cowboy/girl" theme. Too cute. The sun was a little weird here, but there are some cute ones.

We moved to the shade in the downtown area and the lighting was WAY better.

Her face is so funny here! She was watching a train go by.

Now, onto the trendy casual pics. This family can do it all :) She's waving too me. LOL.

Here are a few more of my favs from the laundry mat. I just love these! They are so moody/trendy/cool ... love it.
This one is similar to the last one I posted, but you can see her full reflection. This is my favorite favorite! (I think ;) )
Janae is a climber and did NOT want her momma in the cart with her.
Here's our final location. This was my first attempt here and I tried again just the other day with Mia Grace and it didn't go over too well. I love the purple wall but I think I am doomed.
Yes, this is why the session ended early! She fell/jumped into the water by the purple wall, then she found this fountain and climbed right in!!! Needless to say, she did NOT want out even though she was chattering and her lips were turning blue! So when her daddy came back with dry clothes she was not a happy camper. We decided to call it a day.
As always, tell me your favorites ... or just tell me your favorite locations!

The Trojacek Family

OK. This is a SUPER sneak peek! Sorry, its taken so long guys. I will have the rest posted tomorrow and ready for you to order. For now, I better hurry or my husband will starve to death. I LOVE this session! Thanks for the fun ideas Mica.
(P.S. I know this peek is mostly for Jason, but I wont tell :) ) Hope this will hold you over.
OK. Meet this SUPER cute family. Jason, Mica and little Janae. Check back for more tomorrow. Here are 3 of my favs!

I love this one! Janae is always smiling like this. Mica knew I wanted to take pics in a laundry mat and even though we didn't plan it, there was one right next to where we parked ... Perfect. I love her reflection.

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!
