never a dull moment when i have a session with boys!!  lots of jumping, fence climbing, running – all things that i do on a daily basis with my two boys!!!

i know this family because of photography! this guy is seriously one of the best photographers i know. if you don’t know him already, you must check out his amazing work at www.crouchphotos.com – do it right now, then come back!  btw, his wife and daughter are pretty amazing themselves!!

enjoy this peek – such a fun family and a sweet boy!

sneak peek from a recent session – gorgeous day with a gorgeous family!

this kid cracks me up.  notice the gap in his teeth – he just lost that tooth – and the tooth fairy was very, very generous!  the tooth fairy that visits my house is much more frugal!

i have photographed this family so many times – and each time i have so much fun!  such great kids!  love when they run up to me and say “hi shalimar!!!” i know it’s going to be a great session!

in chicago!  we’ve had some great weather this past week – perfect for outdoor fall sessions at the park!  so much to do and see – especially if you’re one years old!!!

this was one of those sessions where i leave saying, “i can’t believe i get paid to do this!”  these boys were so fun and funny – we were all cracking each other up.  all brothers should get along so well!

this was my third session with this guy and his parents – i also photographed him as a newborn and at 6 months.  amazing all of the changes in the first year – i can’t believe how much he’s grown!  it’s cliche for sure, but time really does go sooooo fast!!!

i can’t believe this little guy is one already!   here’s a sneak peek for mom and dad:
