So we made it back from Destin, FL safe and sound and needing a vacation from our vacation . We had a great time at the beach and just wanted to share a few pics from the trip. We also took some family beach photos that we will post in the next few days once we go through them all. Most of these photos were taken with the simple point-and-shoot camera and not our professional cameras, so that’s why the quality isn’t the best on some of them. But anyways, here we go:

Check out this little doll, Dawson. He was soooo sweet and good on the trip. He would just smile at anything. Here we are at Fudpuckers:

But he wasn’t too happy the first day on the beach. he was just so tired and sleepy and hot (weren’t we all though ). Look at this poor little man. Even not smiling, though, he is such a cutie:

and let’s not forget his adorable big sisters Addy and Bria:

Other than hanging out at the beach and pool, we also went to The Track family fun center. The girls loved the go-carts. Check out Bria’s face in the below picture….sheer joy.

and here’s me and miranda in the arcade:

And finally, i tried out surfing again. As you may remember, I tried surfing while in Hawaii last summer and failed  MISERABLY…you can read about it here

Luckily, I fared much better in the significantly calmer and smaller waves of the Gulf. I even rode a few waves the first day; but the second day the waves were larger and I was on a more difficult board, so I wasn’t so great the 2nd day (and I was on my own without an instructor). 

Me right before my lesson the first day:

check me out riding those waves !

That’s all for now, be checking in later for those family beach pics. 

thanks!

here are some more of Serena and Chris’s precious baby. She was soooooo good during the shoot, never cried or fussed once. she’s a natural ham for the camera .

here’s her beautiful room… notice the awesome chair from their maternity shoot (seen here). we tried stealing it then, and I was tempted to steal it a second time, but it just looked so good in her room I decided to let Hadassah keep it.

this is a Bible that Serena got when she was a baby:

Chris bought Serena and Hadassah matching bracelets with each of their names engraved on them. They were so pretty…

me and miranda are heading out of town at the end of this week to go to the beach with my aunt darla and her gang, so we’ll be sharing lots of those photos soon. hopefully the hotel will have wi-fi cause i don’t know if i can make it without internet for 5 days
have a good week!

To my good friends Serena and Chris on their new blessing - baby Hadassah. Isn’t she beautiful!

Y’all may remember the maternity pics that we took of Serena a while back, you can view them here.

We’ll be heading over to their house to take newborn pics in the next few days, but I couldn’t resist posting these few hospital pics.

Hadassah looks just like her mom:

And one with the proud new Daddy:

check back soon for more!

My cousin Stephen and his wife Christy recently had a beautiful baby boy (Reyd), and I got to take some pictures for them and for Christy’s sister little baby girl (Avery). I just love little babies, so it made my day to have two cuties to photograph

first of all, we haven’t forgotten about the other wedding pics from a few weeks ago. we are still editing away and we’ll post some more when we get them all done. be patient
but for now, a little bit about serena and chris… We took some pics of them before christmas for christmas cards; but unfortunately, it was raining. but this time, the weather was perfect for us! serena is expecting a sweet little girl in a couple of months, so these are her maternity pics. they are just a beautiful couple, don’t ya think? i can’t wait to shoot the baby when she arrives!

cute lil’ belly:

and even being about 7 months pregnant, she can still manage to walk in these shoes. i mean, seriously, there’s no way i could EVER manage to walk in these, especially being in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy! kudos to you serena

being ever so fabulous:

ok, time to get back to watching american idol and editing pics. (i know…i embarrassingly admit that i’m addicted to that show)

-heather

yep, it’s these cuties again. but we were wanting some more practice (seeing as how this is the slow season for photographers), and my aunt is always so obliging in giving us her cute lil’ kids to take pics of. we’ll post some more of the family in the next few days.

enjoy!

hasn’t he grown up into a handsome little boy!

we had some 4×6 postcard-like business cards made and we absolutely LOVE them. the quality is great with the glossy finish and thick, postcard paper. the pictures are on the front, and our contact info on the back.

so whatcha think?

hope everyone had a good weekend.

happy mardi gras and enjoy the super bowl and commercials .
