Favorite 11 from 2011 + Thank You!

It has been an amazing year!  I can hardly believe that 2011 is over.  Personally, this was a huge year for growth in many areas of my life.  But my growth as a photographer (I feel) has been huge.  I'm so encouraged by looking back at my work and seeing the changes that occurred.

I could not have done this without many people. And you (yes, you!) have helped me achieved many of my goals. First and foremost, I need to say thank you to my wonderful husband for all of his love and support for me. He's been my biggest encourager and I would not be able to do anything without him. Thank you for believing in me. I love you, Brooks. My kids are such an inspiration and I started all of this only for them. All I really want is for them to have photographs to look back on when they are older and for them to see themselves as I see them. Not just having the posed portraits where they are dressed up, looking their best, but I want them to see themselves playing, having fun, and remember the emotions they felt. I think there is something truly beautiful about this.  I also need to thank those who saw {a little bit of} talent in me from the beginning. Mom & Dad, Erin & Josh, Zach, Kristy & Stephen, thank you guys so much for always asking me to do pictures for you. The encouragement has meant more to me than you know. You guys are awesome. And to all my clients (who I feel are my friends) thank you, too.  I am humbled and flattered that you have asked me to photograph you. 

With that, I wanted to share with y'all my favorite 11 images from my 2011 sessions. It was hard to choose just eleven. I had so many favorites. (These are in no particular order.)














What have I learned from these favorites? Well, I can see that I love two things: babies and black and white images! Haha!

I am so looking forward to what 2012 brings.  I have a couple of announcements coming up within the next few weeks! You can stay updated through this blog or via facebook.

I hope that all of you have a wonderful rest of 2011 and a blessed new year!
