Birthday Foto Fun

Mom & Dad, Dolores & Chris, threw a combined birthday party for their two kids, Sammy (4) & Matthew (2), this past weekend that I'm sure made all the kids on the block jealous.  How cool is it to have your own bouncy house & inflatable water slide?  I was secretly jealous too.  When Sammy walked down the stairs in her pink princess dress, I knew she was ready to be the star for the day!  Let me set the stage for this photo shoot...95+ degrees outside & a 27.5 weeks pregnant photographer.  Hopefully I wasn't too off my game, but I think we all made it work and got some great shots.

As my two beautiful nieces continue to grow, their family photos always need updating.  Last weekend, I did a mini photo shoot for Bob, Dina, Alex, & Reese in their front yard.  Hard to believe that it was almost 85 degrees out at 10am when I shot these photos.  I also used some of my new post production edits for the final product.  Here are some favorites:
