Welling Family, Highbanks Metro Park

I absolutely love this family! I was so happy they asked me to take their family pictures. It was super chilly, but the lighting was beautiful and I think a lot of these pictures turned out magical. Thanks for braving the cold with me, I think it was well worth it! :)

Amelia + Benson, Park of Roses

Does anyone know of any "Prettiest Toddler Photograph" competitions that I can submit this top photograph to? I'm pretty sure Amelia would win. Look at those green eyes! She is precious. And the funniest little girl.. She is FULL of personality. I'll never forget going to the zoo with her and she had all the boys following her around like puppies and she would say "come on boys!".. You guys, she's two! It was hilarious.  We had to play hide and seek in order to get some pictures, but it was well worth it! 

Alyssa just had her family pictures taken but she was hoping for some extra head shots of her kids smiling. It was super chilly and gray, but we made do.. These are a few of my favorites :) 

Coles Family, OSU pond near Buckeye Village

I absolutely love the Coles family and am so glad Christine asked me to take their family pictures. Jordan and Ben both started Pharmacy school together and have grown to be good friends during our time here in Ohio. We've attended church together and Davis and Noah have become best little buds. Christine is amazing and is training to become a doula! She was going to be my doula if Luke hadn't flown out in one hour, but I'm sure she would have been awesome. We are so lucky to have made such great friends with them and will be sad when we all head out.

^^Hands down my favorite picture of all. Jordan said this is a real Ben smile, so I feel like I won by capturing it ;) 

Aren't their boys the absolute cutest!? Davis was the most amazing three year old ever to have pictures taken. I was fully expecting craziness but he cooperated with all of my requests and constantly had a smile on his face. 

Griffin has the cutest open mouth smiles!

^THAT FACE! I can't get over it.

Evans Family, Highbanks Metro Park

It's really easy to get beautiful photos when you work with a family as pretty as this one. Thanks Allie for swapping photos with me, I love how these turned out! 

^^I was editing these photos and dying over allie's hair. Don't we all wish we could have hair this pretty? 

^^I love this picture so much because I caught such a raw, real moment when Jack gave his mama a tight hug. It was the sweetest. 

^^What I love about this is that this photo has been hardly touched! This is practically straight out of the camera magic. The light was good to me.
