The Walker Family

this family is pure sweetness.  almost every moment of our shoot was spent playing peek-a-book and smiling at little kate, 6 months old.  she is feminine, mellow, huggable and lovely… just like her mama.  (you may recognize this mama’s face… she is Brooke Anderson Walker, the co-host of CNN’s Showbiz Tonight!).  i got to know...

Eackelbary Kids

levi, renny, landri & mccoy.  they really dug down deep and found their inner models for me this year.  :)   this is, i believe, the sixth year i have photographed these kiddos!  okay, i guess they aren’t exactly kiddos anymore… they are growing up.
