Last week I had the pleasure of meeting my friend Kelleigh and her family at the Arboretum for a fun family session. Her boys are adorable and pretty easy going. They weren’t impressed with my barnyard noises but Dad was able to crack a few jokes that had them smiling. Thank goodness for Dads!

Kelleigh is a talented designer with her own website that you can find by clicking HERE. She designs a lot of papercraft templates and blogs about all sorts of things including but not limited to couponing, garage saling (is that a word?), running, and life with her two boys. Her husband Mitch is pretty involved with local happenings and also runs the State Farm Insurance office in Dallas. You can find his website HERE.

I love these boys’ grins! What a pair!

I recently did the M family’s photos with a focus on Mom, Melissa. Melissa needed some photos for the blog she’s doing with her Mom (remember Jan?) and while we were at it we fit in some family photos too! We walked down to the neighborhood park to take advantage of the beautiful fall foliage and golden light pouring through the red and gold trees. Believe it or not we managed to fit individual photos of the kids, the kids all together, the whole family, and several poses/clothing changes of just Melissa in just one hour. That has to be a record. Especially when two of the kids are three and under!

Here’s my favorite of just Melissa…

Aren’t they a beautiful family?

This little guy gave me a run for my money last August when he refused to open his eyes. It took the entire session but I managed to sneak this photo in at the very end with the help of Thomas the Train.

I love this one of the three kids together. Aren’t they sweet?
