Lindsay Parks Photography » welcome

Yes, I know–fall actually “technically” started in September…but I feel like it officially starts in October. Plus, the oranges, the browns…this family’s outfits really say autumn to me!

It was a wonderful evening after days and days of rain…yay!

I really love the shots we were able to catch, espcially of the boys in that series of three. It just sums up the adoration and “sweetness” they feel for one another…even though I am sure it doesn’t SEEM that way on a daily basis (at least not at my house). It’s nice to see it captured right here forever! That’s the point, right? 😉

Anyway, thanks so much M fam. It was great spending the evening together. Don’t forget–if you can get 15 comments right here, I will gift you a free 5×7! Easy peasy when you have kiddos this cute….

I almost canceled this session last night.
It was overcast.
It was chilly.
It was windy.

But…it wasn’t raining…..yet.

My wonderful and supportive hubby convinced me to go. He knows me all too well.

When I met this couple I was soooo glad he did!
They are super cute together, really laid back and flexible, and fun!

It did start to rain when we got to our location…but the stars must have been aligned, because it stopped after a minute or two and I got some shots that I adore!

Can I just say again how much I love when clients actually utiilize the “custom” part of the photography session? See that yellow bug? Oh yeah, I realllllly wish that was one of my props! I am thrilled that G and J wanted to incorporate it into their maternity session. LOVE!! (can you tell??)

So enjoy the sneak peek (only a few) and I cannot WAIT to meet your little one in November. It’s going to fly by–just wait!

Show this adorable couple some blog love and help them get a free 5×7 by commenting after the pics. THANKS!

This trio has been in front of my camera before, and little sis is actually being photographed by me for a third time for this session. I got to do her one year phot shoot back in April. How cute are they? The best thing about this group is what each one brings to the trio. They are each so unique and different in personality, but what they offer one another as a whole is what makes it so special. 🙂

I brought my trusty new wagon (all glued together from my fall two weeks ago)…and we had a gorgeous night before all of this RAIN came back (what’s up with that Mother Nature?). I know I snuck in a 2nd picture of little sis G, but I just couldn’t resist those eyes in that last one. Gorgeous…

Hope you guys had fun picking out Halloween costumes after the session! It’ll be here before we know it!
Thanks for hanging out with me, and enjoy the sneak peek!
Remember, if you like these pics, or you love these kiddos–speak out and leave a comment. 15 comments right here on the blog get the trio a free 5×7 print! 🙂

THANKS!

Little Miss A was just that. Pretty. Dainty. Definitely all baby girl. Look at those precious lips.
I was looong overdue (once again) for one ….I think I had about 8 baby BOYS this summer, and only two girls!
So, forgive me with the flower headbands and all things girl. I had a bit of a draught! 😉 It made me want to try everything….especially the new stuff!

She was very curious about me at first…didn’t want to miss out on anything, but once she gaveway to sleep, she was putty in my hands.

Thanks so much for having me over this morning….she’s simply a little doll!!
Oh, and if you didn’t already see on facebook, look at that SMILE!!!

PS–As always, tradition continues…you can help A and her family get a free 5×7 print by commenting here. All they need is a mere 15! THANKS!!

Look at those cheeks! So squishy and so sweet. Little Mr. J was adorable, and just the perfect model to be a little pumpkin…and he has a wonderful Mommy too. 🙂 We got to chat quite a bit yesterday, one of my other favorite parts of newborn sessions.

I have to admit, the pumpkin picking tin isn’t mine (it was Mommy’s)–but I so wish it was! J fit perfectly inside and was just as content as could be. I would definitly pick him!

He slept like a champ through most of the session, but as he woke up a bit towards the end I couldn’t resist this awake shot. Such a handsome boy!

It was great meeting you guys. Enjoy the sneak peek….and remember, as always, 15 comments under his pics gets his mom and dad a free 5×7 print, so how can you resist? THANKS!!
