Flying G Ranch {Graham Family}

Let's just start by saying... one of my favorite family shoots EVER!  The Graham's are family friends that we know (& LOVE) through our children's school & this shoot is something we have been talking about for a while.  Kacie & I traveled to Lake City to the family's farm, Flying G Ranch.  The air up there was clean & cool, and as we drove up the driveway we were greeted by mooing cows.  I couldn't stop smiling...how cool!  When we arrived, the girls & Kacie immeadiately hit it off and started playing while Kelly took me around to show see the ranch.  We found soooo many beautiful spots!  We started with the girls & mom, and Wow!  What fun, spirited, gorgeous girls!  Before we started family shots, Doug called the cows over so they could be in the background.  He drove, honking, to where we wanted them, while Kelly got some "sweet feed" & went to the fence to feed them.  I loved Kelly feeding the cows all dressed up!  After all the dressy pictures, we headed over to the hay bails for some fun.  I was just in awe watching Doug with his girls, pure daddy love.  The whole family looked great in their ranch gear & the hay couldn't have been better!  This time when Doug moved the cows, Kelly & I were on the same side of the fence, on the top rung though :-)  The ground vibrating from them running was amazing... & we were right there!  I took Doug & Kelly into the field with the cows for some shots.  I think that they will speak for themselves, what a gorgeous, funny, & totally in love couple.  Amazing day, amazing family, amazing pictures  Thank you Grahams for sharing your farm & family with us!

Sweet Lil' Lucy

O baby's, especially super smiley ones!  I spent the moring recently with Lucy & momma, whom you may remember as the beautiful pregnant girlie I photographed in the pink dress.  From the moment we started, Lucy was all smiles :)  She laughed at everything... from the blanket to her toes!  Here are some sweet shots of her.  Congrats!!!
