Quarterly Top 5 (or maybe more)

Time, once again, to link up our favorite photos of our kids from July, August, and September hosted by Courtney @ Click it Up a Notch, Amber @ Amber's Articles, and Sarah @ NapTime MomTog.  I had a hard time picking just 5 ... especially since I have 3 kids and a dog.  So I included my favorite photo of each child from each month.  'Cuz I can.  :)


{Keira & Honey - July}

My sweet girls.

Keira Aug
First day of school.


{Keira - September}
Keira-Sept
I just took this photo of Keira on September 28.  I can see a definite improvement in my portrait photography skilz.  :)  That is one of my week spots.




Nick is my toughest subject.  He's very animated and doesn't usually like to be still very long for portraits.  So I try to capture him in action as much as possible.

Nick reading a Star Wars book.  He's into Star Wars big time right now.




Alex is becoming much more cooperative when trying to get a portrait of him.  He loves looking at pictures of himself in our scrapbooks and photo books, which is definitely helping.  :)

Keira actually took this photo, and I love it!


So, yeah, that was way more than five photos.  I hope you don't mind!  :)

You're a wonderful portrait photographer! You capture everyone so well. I'm tickled they will allow their picture be made. Matt only puts a hand over my lens {sigh}. After 21 years, I guess he's tired of all the attention. :(

Wow, they look so different month to month that you'd almost think they were different kids...

So many smiles and so much fun going on! I love it.

The one of Alex in September really caught my eye. I just love the colors, his eye contact with the camera, and his sweet grin.

Wow the detail on the last picture of your dog is breathtaking with the bokeh background!
