Love love love being the Allemand family’s go to First Communion photographer 😁 It makes me so happy to capture the memories so that this sweet family can focus on each other on such a special day. This is the last Communion in the Allemand house but here’s hoping it’s not the last time I get to shoot these beautiful girls!
Congratulations Lea!!! ✞
Yea! Maeve is one! I always look forward to shooting the Morkes family, and not just because they’re all so good lookin’ 😉 The real draw is seeing what kind of styling this creative mama has in store for the shoot! Seriously, Cara never disappoints and Maeve’s one year shoot was no exception. I think from now on when a client has a question about wardrobe styling I will refer them straight to Cara! And… if you find yourself admiring Cara’s impeccable visage then you should probably check out Makeup My Day. Cara is a super talented makeup artist, trust me, I’ve seen her in action 🙂
Maeve was a real trooper too! We shot straight into her bedtime and she hung in there with the best of em’ 🙂 The late summer sunsets can make for tricky scheduling when there are little ones involved. But I’m going to go ahead and say you’d have no idea from looking at the pics of this beautiful family.
Thanks Dave and Cara for letting me capture these memories for you! I can’t wait to watch Maeve cover that adorable little face with cake and frosting!!
You guys, this was my first First Holy Communion! Ok. So no, it wasn’t “my” First Communion, that was way back when… BUT it was my first time shooting a First Communion 😉 Seriously feel so blessed to have been able to help document such a special day for this fam. The Allemands are neighbors of good friends of ours and I was so glad when they reached out to set up this shoot. It was a beautiful day spent shooting a couple of beautiful girls with the added bonus of LOTS and LOTS of additional family and friends.
Anita and John, thank you SO much for letting me be a part of this very memorable day. I know I’ll see you around the neighborhood but also hope I get the pleasure of shooting your lovely family again soon! 🙂
The good news is that I was lucky enough to have pretty little Liv in front of the camera again.. Bad news is she was just getting over being sick, cutting multiple teeth,and had her one year appointment that morning (too many shot 🙁 ). Needless to say she was not her usual sweet smiley self. But whether Liv’s 100% or 30% one thing is for sure, she’s still the cutest little baldie around 😉Peek!Fascinating lawnmower eh?There’s a smile!
Every time I shoot with this beautiful family I think to myself, ‘it can’t get any better than this.’ Then along comes our next shoot and it’s as if the seas part and boom, it’s AMAZING! We went back to Independence Grove for cutie Candence’s One Year pics. I still can’t believe it was just a little over a year ago that we hit up this same spot for Gina’s Maternity Photos (yep, those are the same TOMS from the maternity shoot that little Cadence is sportin’ now ;)). Well, once again we had the most beautiful day… but better yet, this time around we had Cadence there to add to the awesomeness. I hadn’t seen Cadence since we shot Cadence’s Newborn Photos last August. Let me tell you, she was wide eyed and bushy tailed back then and she still is now!! When she was just days old we were all ‘go to sleep baby girl!!’ but this time around her spunk and energy was AMAZING! I’m pretty sure I kept her going well into her usual nap time and she was a blast the whole time. Thank you Gina and Jory for coming back for more. I look so forward to every shoot with you guys!
