Here comes the bride...{Quad Cities Photographer}

I photographed the T wedding last weekend in Clinton along with my friend Jamie.  It was our first time photographing a wedding together and I think it went really well!  Here is a little sneak peak of the 1000+ pictures from that day:)

ETA-I think I'm having issues with blogger making my images pixelated looking again.  If you are having this issue click the image it should be MUCH better.  Don't ask me what is going on...on my mac it looks fine but on my PC it doesn't???

1 Year Old {Quad Cities Baby Photographer}

We did E's pictures on Monday night at Duck Creek Park.  He isn't walking yet, but boy can that little guy get around!  He was intersted in everything around him EXCEPT the camera.  But with a face like that, it is impossible to take bad pictures:)

What great kids {Quad City Child Photographer}

Every so often I leave a session and I can't wait to start editing them!  This is one of those sessions.  The kids were dressed SO cute and they were pro's at posing and smiling.  I seriously couldn't have asked for them to be any better!  We got our session done in about 30 minutes because it started to rain.  We were going to cancel but decided to take our chances...I'm so glad we did!

1 year old in the park {Quad Cities Child Photographer}

I can't believe that this little guy is 1 year old already.  I photographed him when he was just 8 days old and he gets cuter and cuter every time I see him.  He is so well behaved and I don't think I've ever seen him cry! He did so well at this session and we got just about everything that we needed in 25 minutes:)

Riley's 3 months old {Bettendorf Baby Photographer}

My sweet Riley is 3 months old already!  She totally has PCS (Photographers Child Syndrome).  She will be all smiles and as soon as she sees the camera she will turn away.  What a little stinker!!

Mr. S {Quad City Kids Photographer}

Mr. S had his 2 year session yesterday.  It is hard to believe that he is 2 already!  I've said it before but I think that 2 is the hardest age.  They definitely have a mind of their own and they don't stay in one spot for longer than 10 seconds so the parents and I spend most of the time just chasing them around!  That's alright...I can stand to burn a few extra calories :) Enjoy your sneak peak!
