Day 47-50 of Project 365! {Lexi is born!}

I am now an aunt for the VERY first time! Here are a few pictures of the day. I think "birth photography" is amazing!! I can't wait for the day when I can photograph the whole birth all the way through. Of course, I wouldn't be invasive or take any "yucky" photos. I would have loved to remember my kids birth, especially now that their father has passed. I hope my sis and brother in law will enjoy these photos for years to come.

Love and happiness always,

Kristin Grace



Day 45-46 of Project 365! {Valentine}

Being that we had just spent a small fortune on the kid's birthday party this year (and the fact that I need money to keep my business rolling in general), we decided NO gifts for Valentines Day. My sister was due any moment, so for all I knew I could be in another city on Valentines Day. However, a smart man knows, even when a woman says "no present," she will be completely FINE if you do show up with one anyway. ;)

OK, so the pictures are technically not the best, THUS the black and white. Our kitchen has horrible lighting and it was dark outside, so this will do! There is a story behind the tree. We bought another one similar in the first couple months we started dating on a trip to Arkansas. It has three stems and is supposed to bring you happiness. Well, now we have two trees! Hopefully meaning double the happiness! 
What girl doesn't love roses? ;) And, he knows I'm no big chocolate eater, but he picked out this heart because he thought I could use it as a prop! hehe ;) So sweet! Then me and the kids opened up this delicious box of chocolate goodness!! AH-MAZING!!! Dark Chocolate, White Chocolate, Raspberry!! YUMMY!!! This was NO ordinary chocolate! So, thank you to my baby love for another great Valentines Day! I love you!

Day 44 of Project 365! {Zachary's Birthday}

Today, the day before Valentines Day is Zachary's fourth birthday. It seems like yesterday I was in the hospital with Beau starring at our beautiful, new creation. Since we had already had a birthday party for both boys, we took Zachary to the park today to let him play a little. My boys never cease to amaze me. My hearts melts just watching them. I laid on the other side of a hill and watched them play and tried to capture a few shots. Meanwhile I let the sun soak in my skin. Yes, you are allowed to be jealous of our 70 degree (in February) weather. =)

Just feeling plain ol' blessed today!
Love and happiness always,

Day 42-47 of Project 365! {Brynn's Shoot}

On this particular day, I got to do a photo shoot for one of my closest friends. Her daughter is the cutest thing I have EVER seen. I have the pictures to prove it! However, she was more concerned with "exploring" the woods than having her picture taken. We had a blast!

There are tons more. Thanks Brynn for being so beautiful and sweet!
Love always,

Kristin Grace



Day 37-41 of Project 365! {K's Secret Boudoir Shoot}

Day 37, which was Sunday I did my second Boudoir shoot. K is so beautiful and so easy to work with! She is also my first official wedding client, so it was so much fun to do this for her! I can only post the photos that are approved by K first because, like before these are a Valentines Day gift.

Drum-roll please.............. 

Oh, how I would LOVE to show you the rest. The photos are even more amazing when you can actually see her beautiful face!! So exciting! I hope she loves them as much as I do!
Love and happiness always,

Day 37 of Project 365! {Kids Birthday Party 2011}

Please forgive me for my lack of blogging. I have been oober (yes oober) busy preparing for the BEST birthday party EVER!! OK, well we think it was the BEST party EVER! The wedding cake was done by my first "official" wedding client's mother! Thank you so much Sasha for the amazing cake! Not only was it pretty but it taste even better! The goodie bags and most of the decorations were handmade. You can get all of the supplies at Michael's. It was kind of hard to be the hostess and the photographer at the same time. Thankfully Mitch was there to help out! ;)

Special thanks to Beau's Family who attended and helped out with the birthday party!
Love and happiness always,
