The Warner Family

I have known the Warner family ever since I first started working at First Presbyterian Weekday School in 2008.  Unfortunately I never got to have one of these amazing kids in one of my classes.  However, I got to know them on the playground and at various school events, and I'm pretty much crazy about them.  They are such a sweet and genuine family and they are wonderful to be around.   I think these pictures pretty much speak for themselves, but we had a lot of fun and we got these in right before Sandy hit, so we still had lots of leaves on the trees.  I'm so glad that I got the opportunity to work with you guys, and I hope that I get to do it again in the years to come!  I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

A few years ago, they got pictures similar to these before the truck was painted, so we tried to mimic those here.

Gorgeous kids right?!

The truck is gorgeous John!
We had to squeeze the whole family into the truck!
My husband was drooling!

They are such a good looking family!

So glad the trees still had color on them!
Had to get a few of the kids by themselves!  Pete's smile is totally infectious!
Carrie is just beautiful!
Siblings!
Love!
I said we had fun right? ;)
Carrie scoped out all the best spots around the yard!  She was so helpful!

This is definitely one of my favorites!

Then the kids wanted to get on the trampoline!  So, while they were getting out some energy, I snagged some shots as fast as I could! :)
Carrie was really good at the cartwheels!
And Pete was a little daredevil!
Then we tried for some together!
Not sure which of these I like best!


Then we took a rest against the fence!

Had to get a couple of Mom and Dad!

Seriously guys, it's no wonder your kids are so gorgeous!
Pete is quite an adventurous driver!
Carrie climbed a tree!

This is Pete's 'What you lookin' at?' face
Then Pete climbed the tree.
So we got them together in the tree!
Then we threw in Mom and Dad!  And I think this might be my other favorite!

Throwing leaves!
Sibling bridges!
Then Carrie wanted one last picture with Dad!
I really think Carrie could have kept posing for me for the rest of the night if I had the time.  You guys are wonderful!  Thanks again!

Hassmer Maternity: Baby Boy 2!

I was so excited first that our dear friends were blessed to be expecting another sweet baby boy, and second that I would get to shoot another maternity session for them!  We had to split it up into two days, but I think overall we got some really beautiful stuff that hopefully captures life for them right now!  We love you Hassmer family, we are blessed to be in your life!  We can't wait to meet sweet Baby Blake in a little over a month!

Sweet baby shoes!


Wesley practicing sharing
He's gonna be such a great big brother!


Beautiful light... beautiful mama!

One of the most beautiful pregnant women I have ever met!

Beautiful mama relaxing after her shower!
Checking on his brother.
Love the joy!
And then this past weekend, we met up with the Hassmers to finish up the shoot and include David in some of the shots as well.  Unfortunately, Wesley took a pretty nasty tumble right before we started shooting, and scraped up his face, nose and forehead.  He handled himself well, but it meant we had to be pretty strategic about the shots that we got.

We definitely took advantage of the beautiful light and foliage all around us!
Poor boy, still managed to have quite a bit of fun on all the playground equipment!

Beautiful!

Happy mama!

Being silly!
Preggo Shadow!

They are truly blessed!


No wonder they make such gorgeous boys!
Sweet Mommy kisses
Just like one from Wesley's newborn shoot!
Pretty excited that we were able to get these since Wesley is a little afraid of heights.

Silly boys!

Well Mommy's pretty silly too!
Love!


He did it!
 A little belly comparison!

Blake has no idea how much fun his family is!  What wonderful parents you are and will continue to be to this new sweet blessing!  Love you all so much!
