Seven years ago today- my life changed forever.

I didn’t know then, but I was about to step into the most amazing- thrilling- scary- overwhelming- and perfect adventure yet!
Anyone with a child that has any sort of special need can understand the range of emotions you go though on a daily basis.  Life has been crazy. From really low lows to exhilarating highs. He has blessed us in incredible ways. He has made me become compassionate, non judgmental, patient, and creative. Most of all he has taught me to always look for the best in everyone. When others see challenges I seek victories. I appreciate the little things. He has opened my eyes to the possibilities in us all.

He is MY Mohawk…..He is why this all started and why I continue to bust by butt.

I love you so much little man- you are the best boy in the world!!!!!!

Happy seventh birthday!

 

This is what I love about him.

*He thinks he is Michael Jackson*

I have been reflecting on such a wonderful year both personally and professionally.

We welcomed our third baby into our family this past spring.

 

The other two-well they are pretty amazing as well!

My little guy has made amazing strides this year- we are so proud of him.

And my middle- she is just a riot! Her personality definitely bloomed this year. One of a kind for sure!

and professionally. I am doing what I absolutely love-

styled portrait commissions.

I love creating art for families.

Happy New Year Munchkins and Mohawks fans.

We had a great holiday here. Got some much needed rest and relaxation and are ready to welcome all the good that 2012 has to offer!

Make sure you check back for “The Best of 2011″ blog post coming soon. We will be giving away some cool stuff for the winners!

I am looking forward to photographing  some new faces and lots of familiar ones too!

You may recognize this familiar face from his newborn shoot. Well- 16 months later little brother has made his grand entrance…..late I might add! ( Poor momma!)

There was lots of blood, sweat and tears to get this shot! Well- maybe not blood, but hey the sweat part for sure!

Cousin joined us for part of the session- man he was such an awesome helper!

And all cuddled up and pooped out from the business of the day. Let’s hope he stayed that way for a while for mom.

This last session of 2011 was a great way to end the year.

Here is to a blessed year for all!

Welcome 2012
