Meet Chelsea

What I love most about photography is capturing unscripted images. Those moments and the “little things” are what we’ll remember forever. Life is not scripted and that’s the beauty of it. I love it when adults sneak in a kiss or when I catch kids picking their noses… people are just made to be spontaneous and it’s just simply beautiful.

I will step off my soap box now. Thank you. Goodbye Forever.

Back to the Bean Family. Little Wyatt is the center of their universe. The boy is adorable and 100% boy. He likes to throw shells in the water, blow on dandelions, run in circles, hit sticks against a tree…and direct photo shoots. After ever few shots where he was told to stay still, he’d promptly announce, “All Done!” I’ve never moved around to so many locations in so little time! Donnie and Amy – do you think I could borrow him to be my assistant for weddings??

Anyway, we had a GORGEOUS afternoon. The lighting and weather were perfect and the Bean Family were perfect models. Did I mention we had a gorgeous afternoon? Yes. It was gorgeous. Thank you guys for meeting up with me during the week! I had so much fun and I hope you have some good family shots to remember forever 🙂

Also, I’m starting a waiting list for Wyatt when he gets old enough to date because I’m pretty sure he’ll have to beat the women off with a stick! Leave your name in the comment section to be considered for a date in about 18 years. Thank you. Goodbye.

Enjoy!

This tree is just amazing…

This is one of my favorite shots from the evening…

Ok, so maybe THIS one is my favorite… love the feet hanging off and Wyatt’s pensive look.

Dangling Feet

Amy and Donnie wanted this picture especially. The tractor is actually solid metal (Iron?) and was Donnie’s growing up. It’s now a family antique and will be passed down through the generations. I love this shot…

Riding on a Deere

Just a stolen kiss… and Wyatt is clueless.

“All Done!!!”

All Done
