Oh. my. GOODNESS. What a sweet pea. 

My cousin (by marriage) and her husband have the most adorable child. 

She's curious, courageous, and confident in life. 

And SO loved by her parents! 

Joel and Melissa wanted me to capture their life with Ayla - the tender moments, playful games, and intimate connection. 

I was only too happy to oblige. :)

We romped in the grass, climbed trees, and wandered around the playground looking for adventures. 

Lovebirds caught in the act! :)

And with all the love in their heart for Ayla, it's so clear that they still have so much love for each other. 

Love their sweet family so much! 

Melissa and Joel, it was SO good to see you! Thank you so much for allowing me to capture your beautiful little family - you guys are so adorable! :)

There's something special about photographing repeat clients. The trust, the understanding, the safety. I LOVE getting to watch these families grow over the years and it was such an honor to see the Vieau's again! 

Hannah has grown into a beautiful young woman - she tried to be really serious and moody, but I wouldn't let her! :)

And this little pumpkin was a bundle of energy and and sweetness! 

We wandered around my hometown where they live and found pockets of exposed brick.... 

Not to mention the beautiful fall colors that were out in full force!! 

LOVE! 

Daddy always makes her smile... :)

Thank you so much for allowing me to capture your beautiful family, Vieau's!! It was so fun to see you again! :)
