I can hardly believe that in just a few short weeks, my baby girl will be 2 years old.  Actually, I can believe it.  She is showing all the telltale signs of being 2…you know, like the words “No!”  and “Mine!” constantly come out of her mouth.  But, truth be told, I really don’t mind the “terrible two’s.”  If you can look past all the sass and become a master at redirecting, it’s actually a pretty fun, spunky, wonderful age.

And besides, (almost) 2 year olds are so cute!  I caught Camryn in a super good mood recently and it seemed like the perfect opportunity for a photo shoot.  These were all taken in my little natural light garage studio.

She is full of personality.  Can you tell?

Of course, I got some of these looks, too.  But I love this picture!

Oh how I love my baby girl.  I’m so glad she cooperated for this photo shoot.  She is so much fun!

My Logan turned 5 years old last week.  I wanted to get some 5 year old pictures of him, so I took him out to my “studio” (aka my garage…gorgeous light out there!) and took some pictures.  I was happy with the handful of good ones I came away with, but man, he did not make it easy!  First there was the fight over me making him wear a “church shirt”.  Then, when I suggested ways that he sit or stand, he balked.  He informed me he would only make grumpy or silly faces.  I tell you what, my own kids sure give me a run for my money!  It was fake bodily functions and knock knock jokes that finally got him to smile a little bit.  They are probably sick of having the camera in their face all the time, even though most of the time I try to be a little covert about it.  I also am realizing more and more that I much prefer the outdoor photo shoot as opposed to the “studio” type shoot.  But, there is always a time a place for this type of photo, too!
