If I had a flower girl, this would be her

My husband and I have some dear friends who were our best man and matron of honor in our wedding. We LOVE them! If we had chosen to have kiddos in our wedding, their oldest, Kaitlynn, would have been our flower girl. When I was first starting out as a photographer, way back in high school, they saw my potential and were some of my first clients. I took Kaitlynn's pictures as a baby, and now she's a big sister! Time for pictures of the four of them.

We live 4 hours apart, so we met in the middle- Columbia, MO. None of us know the town, so we got there about 1/2 hour early and found a few spots. We rarely get to see each other, so we went all out. It was a day-long affair. Due to the fact that it was a mondo-photoshoot, I had a hard time narrowing down my favorites. Kaitlynn knows how to "work it" and Natalie is just a doll!

Check out this awesome spot we found!




The girl's faces are just what I wanted here: "... uh, mom... dad... cut it out."


I was playing around with some vignetting the other day and brought it out for this one. Isn't it fun and reminiscent of days gone by? I did some photo restoration for my mom as a gift a few years back and this has a similar feel.
