Photoshoots have begun!

I had no idea they would start this early, but the weather went and got all spring like on us and so I guess I could start now! :)

I have done Lora's maternity shoot and baby Wesley and baby Nile, but this was my first official NEW non-friend client of the year!
Sweet Samone...

Check out lots more images from her session on the Jennie Peakin Photography Blog linked on my sidebar. (I can't hyperlink right now or I would have done that...not sure why it's not working. Hmmm)

Our baby. Cason is the happiest, sweetest little boy alive. He has a way of making any person who comes in contact with him, fall completely head over heels in love. He is snuggly and sensitive. He had our hearts from the moment we laid eyes on him when he was 11 months old. We knew he was going to bless our lives and change our world in ways we had never dreamed before meeting him. He suffered a lot in his first year of life and we get to spend the rest of our lives making up for what he had to endure. A blessing beyond words.
