"Madeline, Madeline! Where have you been? We've been to London to see the queen!" - Ludwig Bemelmans

You may remember my dear friend, Caitlyn, and her precious little family. Well, they've had a lot going on these past few months since a third baby girl has been added to the crew and they are moving home from Memphis, TN to London! And you thought your life was crazy right now?! Ha. Of course, Cait and Josh are handling all of this transition with the grace and strength that I would only expect from such incredible people. Plus, she looks AH-mazing for being a new mom of three! Cait has always been such a beauty in my eyes, and I love that she is passing along all the elements of her beauty (internal and external) to her little girls.

 All that being said, it was really important to capture them all in their last days enjoying time with family stateside... plus celebrate/document precious little baby Lillian!

"In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony." - Eva Burrows

Two year old twin girls plus a newborn baby boy makes for a busy house, but as I shot this session I was struck with the sweetness of capturing these images to help document these crazy days. Especially when days and nights feel equally as long, I think that taking some time out to allow me to simply document their interaction will hopefully provide them with memories to always look back and smile upon. So, thank you Elizabeth and Ian for welcoming me into your home and trusting me to snap these images of how your family and your life are changing once again!

I'm in love with this series of the whole family - especially that grin from baby Court.

A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double.  ~Toni Morrison

This quote struck me perfectly for my little Montana nieces because they are so different, yet also so alike. I can't wait to watch them grow into the themselves over the years....

Sweet Gracie. She is such a happy little nugget.

"One should take good care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life as laughter."

- Joseph Addison

The Nazario crew was full of playful laughter and I feel like their vivacious attitudes really shine through in these images. It's such a joy for me to watch families and kids who enjoy each other, and this group had me giggling behind my camera. I also have to give major credit to Erin, their mom, because she was incredibly relaxed and willing to goof around with us. A relaxed/playful mom pretty much always translates into great photos of the kids because they are able to  relax and reveal more of their true personality... which is always what I'm after! Genuine, honest images. It doesn't hurt when there are three gorgeous kids involved either...

Just in case you thought I may have fallen off the face of the earth... these these the little mooshies that have been keeping me busy. We just had a little family reunion over the long weekend and my Montana nieces stayed at our house. Waking up to these hearts, well, it melts mine. Today I'm playing catch up...
