little brother picked up the wagon handle all on his own. it worked! wow, beautiful children! GORGEOUS family! LOL about the toad! HA! a beautiful family. wow!!! they are going to love the photos. When I taught kindergarten, I did a lot of things I never thought I would do to capture the attention of the little ones. But a catching a toad and waving it around…I’m impressed! Beautiful pictures!
beautiful children and pictres. I love the black & white of the little girl looking up at you.
Awe, thanks for the sweet words. We really enjoyed having you out to our place! I just used the pictures you took of my hubby and me for a post about our 5 year anniversary. They were just the perfect pictures for it! And everyone loved the updated family and kiddo pictures we gave out! Thank you again for coming out to take them! And sorry about the toad=) you’re right! so dreamy! Great as usual…I love the couple shot especially. such cute pictures. and amazing what you came up with to get them to smile. 🙂 Talk about small world, did I just see waffle over at the preschool blog? Had NO idea you two knew each other. Sweeeet family 🙂 Wish I could’ve seen you waving that toad in the air!!! heee heee these are great. i always say that there’s a story behind every picture. enjoyed the glimpse behind the scenes. 😉 What a beautiful family! Thanks for sharing. Wish you could photograph my brood, Meg. Sigh. I wouldn’t even think to ask you to hold a toad. Ewe. xoxo
You continue to amaze me with your pics-you are simply the best! I wish you were nearby!
I love the pictures especially the last family one! Really cute family! Great job Meg! They really are beautiful pics. My favourite: The one with the table in the field.
The part about waving the toad around made me laugh out loud! Beautiful shots 🙂 Precious family and precious pictures. Our photographer in California did all sorts of silly things to amuse our 2 and 3 year old. It’s not an easy job! i can remember when logan was a baby. i thought her name was so cool. and now she''s all grown up…and i feel old. isn't she gorgeous? (thank you cindy for letting us use your barn) she is a softball player. and a big sister. her mom wanted some pictures with logan and her brothers. handsome family don't you think? ha ha ha ha ha…. logan it is impossible to take a bad photo of you. if your career plans don't pan out you could always try modeling. have a fabulous senior year! IT IS hard to look at the Capitol in Washington, DC, without a frisson of excitement she is beautiful…I remember her in 4th grade…I was her teacher. G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!! such beautiful children all… they grow so fast… i’m watching my own grandkids race through life now… too soon they will be all “growed up” too {as my 5 yr old granddaughter puts it LOL!} beautiful photos as always too! LOVE it all! black and white softball pic my favorite! cool barn! BEAUTIFUL!!!!! JUST beautiful!!!!!!! And oh yea….the U2 concert….we are going to the one here in OK in October and Black Eyed Peas are gonna be with them!!!! CANNOT wait!!! I hope you enjoyed!!!! they are all really good, but I especially love the one on the ball field. Wow, beautiful pictures of a gorgeous young lady! Time get’s away from us so fast! LOVE that last photo!! Kelly She’s gorgeous!! I loved babysitting Logan and her brothers! Awesome kids and fantastic parents (Hi Michelle!!!!) You did an awesome job with these photos, but it makes me feel really old to see her all grown up 🙂
Amazing photographs, I just love the last one!!! What a GORGEOUS young lady – glad she’s not my daughter or I’d have to have a baseball bat at the ready, lol! she is beautiful meg and you did a marvelous job capturing her spirit. i love taking seniors photos. so much fun. Fantastic…and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that last one! Too funny!!! meg…the shots are gorgeous! and i love the softball shots too! classy and fun! and logan is gorgeous…she just looks like she’s super sweet and humble. Dean and Michelle’s Logan is a SENIOR? I can’t believe that she is that old. I remember when she was little – going out to marion co lake with them and others and she was only 7 yrs old or so – I guess that was at least 8 years ago. Great pictures. She is so beautiful. I wish my senior pictures were half this good.
adorable, just like the one that took her pictures 🙂 yes i mean you These are BEAUTIFUL!! Seriously, your pictures are getting better and better, and I didn’t even know that was possible they were so good before! Awesome job, beautiful girl, love the setting. Beautiful pictures!

Gosh Meg, I seriously wish I lived in Kansas… you take FANTSTIC photos. If nothing else, maybe a vacation is in order! 😉 my boys were bald…and i loved that.
this guy was a sweetie. he's had his picture with this horse every month since he was born. i love when people bring something special along. we found a puddle and i was so happy his mom said it was ok to get wet. SO HAPPY! that is real life. kids love puddles….so why not get that shot?! i wasn't the only one who was happy. oh my. that belly is just too much. i can barely stand the cuteness. there is his beautiful mama. she just moved here & i am looking forward to getting to know her better this year… and squeeze on her baby. and there he goes. he's done with me. that's the usual routine. alisha thank you for a fun morning. see you at church…i'm so happy you moved here! kerry is too. So adorable. I love his picture playing in the puddle. Cute! ^_^
Your pictures are awesome, and I would love for you to take some shots of my little one. Alas, we live very far away from you. If you ever happen to pay the state of Tennessee a visit, let me know. 🙂
Oh God…you are your baby pictures. Seriously, you are killing me. Those cheeks! That bald head! Those overalls! oh and we were living in chicago on 9/11 also. my husband worked in the hancock and they were evacuated. i was teaching and was supposed to comfort a classroom of kids when i didn’t even really know what was going on. it was so sad and so chaotic.
http://lloydmountain.blogspot.com and I’m hoping that you can help me spread the word? I would really appreciate it. smiles, Joni Hi Meg. I know I’ve been missing for a while reading your blog, but I have a favor to ask you. I know your readership is really high, and I remember all that you were able to accomplish in helping with Cora’s playground. It was a story that touched my heart and I felt honored to have contributed in my small way. My favor is this, I have a friend who needs a bone marrow transplant and needs to get as many people as she can to register on the marrow.org site to get swabbed. It’s a numbers game for her, so the more the better her chances are for a match. I just posted her story on my site:Great pics! I love the first puddle one! You have such a great eye and your pictures really show it! The chubby feet… aaaah!! heaven! Everytime you post portraits, I grieve again the fact we live many states apart. I need you to do pictures of my kiddos. Wow – he’s a keeper. That belly…oh that belly. Why are babies so perfect???!!!?!
I love bald babies too…these pictures are so fantastic. I mean really, just gorgeous.
darling pictures. i love the blue background..really pops. and i squealed a little when i saw the puddles…too much fun! i love the b&w puddle one. & the last one. sooo cute. I love these pictures!! (I’ve been following your blog for a while, and I love it too!) The puddle ones are SOOOOO cute! Love those puddle shots! omg the picture of him with his little tongue out is too precious!!! just adorable!!!!!! Seriously they don’t make um cuter! Look at those darling little baby toes! So cute! you have such an amazing talent, capturing the best moments! he is a cutie pie for sure! oh he is so CUTE! i love the pics of him playing in the puddle! cute lil belly! i just love baby chub! Ok, I’ve had my “cute baby fix” for the day! He is adorable, a real butterbean! Adorable! I’m partial to bald babies my self and I have a friend who actually told me that if her baby was born hairy she would have to shave it!
Great, great GREAT photos! Love his belly and his cuteness!
What wonderful pictures. Once again, you have really captured the moment. The puddle shot is my favorite. Those little feet are just yummy! I am way past wanting a baby, but I did get a twinge. Keep taking those wonderful shots! oh meg, how could you? stop it already! this little guy is absolutly bringing my baby fever back! my little guy was a baldy too. awww i miss those days so so much. So very very cute! ooh, I love that belly! Your pictures are amazing! I love that last shot, so adorable! oh these are just perfect!! that puddle shot and the last one… you are so talented. and what a beautiful family!
Awwww that first puddle picture is my fav. He is super cute!
major cuteness!!!! love the last, with his overhauls all rolled up! now that we live in kansas again… i get to see my childhood friends more often. we didn't have that for 10 years and i am grateful for it now. (the double spacing of this post is making me NUTS!!! why does it do this?!) dana and i were cheerleaders together. oh the glory days…. back when i had no problem wearing a skirt so short i couldn't even sit on it. i wonder if i can find an old picture from back then….when i was skinny. another time. we've moved 4 times since those days so who knows where that would be by now. anyway….i took pictures of her daughters this summer. at her parent's farm. it was a photographer's dream location. they are such pretty girls. i love freckles. and red heads. and turquoise blue eyes. it's weird that we both have kids as tall as we are. how are we that old? when did this happen? it was fun dana. let's get together soon. i'll see YOU at the craft fair…at least we don't have to sell pork sandwiches at a cheer fundraiser anymore. how about a cheer for old times sake? Let's STOMP and CLAP and MAKE A LOT OF NOISE to show that we're BEHIND OUR BOYS! GOOOOOOOO HHS! {{{{{spirit fingers}}}} …….that is embarrassing isn't it? Marce – I love the photos from France!!! How biuutefal! As I viewed them I had the voice of Edith Piaf & La Vie en Rose singing in my head! jajajaja No but seriously, they are biuutefal! I want to see allll of them! When can i see them?? I want to pick some so I can frame in my apt.Congrats!! IT IS hard to look at the Capitol in Washington, DC, without a frisson of excitement THAT’S ALLY?! No way.
Once again, great pictures! And the cheer at the end cracked me up. WOW. those are awesome. 🙂 Oh my those eyes are stunning! Beautiful portraits, as usual! It was fun to hear about your fun memories of cheering. My daughter just made the squad and this will be our family’s first time making some fun cheer memories – I’m looking forward to it 🙂 Great pics. Love those freckles. You are so funny. Loved your cheer at the end;) i love your reading-guest room. it is so bright and happy. you are very talented. i don’t know if i have commented before, of course i came across your blog from someone else. and i think if i remember you have 5 kids, and anyone who has 5 kids like me is a friend of mine. love your blog!!
Oh the cheerleading days 🙂 The skirts were short, yes…but NOW….sheesh….it is like HALF of the bloomers (do they still call them that??) show!!! I am proud to say…I can still fit into my cheerleading uniform!!! Hey, it’s reeeeeally tight, but still, I can do it!!! SO CHECK ME OUT….clap clap 🙂 I love it that you are still close with those friends! Her girls are beautiful! GREAT pics….oF COURSE!!!!!! Great post and great pictures. Beautiful girls 🙂 Another amazing photo shoot! What beautiful girls (all three of them)! amazing photos! TFS. Those girls are both beautiful. The redheaded, freckled one reminds me of a girl on the cover of a Lois Lenski children’s book — I can’t remember which one, though! Thanks, as always, for sharing your sensibility with us! These pictures are so sweet. I wish I had my good friends close, they are so important to me too!
Good grief, you’re good. Have a great day! Your pics are amazing! 🙂 Megan, those photos brought tears to my eyes, and I don’t even know these people! So beautiful and touching. You are a great photographer. Yay redhead love! (I’m a redhead, sorry, just love it when people compliment us not insult us). The pictures are gorgeous, as usual. I love the location, and the girls are really beautiful. It’s nice to meet up with old friends, isn’t it?
Loving the freckles, you framed all of those shots beautifully!
I love that you added spirit fingers to the end! 🙂 amazing photos! love that eye color…want that eye color! Gorgeous girls, & gorgeous pics! Love the one with the lollipop. What beautiful girls. Once again you did a fabulous job! Those girls are gorgeous!! great pictures such beautiful girls! Great pics. This post makes me miss my cheerleader days. Good times. And it makes me feel better that I’m not the only one who can still remember the cheers! btw — love the last picture! You just dated yourself –I think that cheer has been retired!! Happy Labor Day — are you cooking out or is mom? lol i love the internet. i love blogs……did you know that? through the internet and linking from blog to blog shelley found me. she said she didn't have photos at their small wedding and was hoping i could take some for them now. then when her appointment day came it was rainy. she drove over an hour so we just tried to make it work…finding covered spots. she didn't want to reschedule because Rene's parents were visiting and she wanted pictures with them. it was sweet. his parents' english was very limited….we had a LOT of laughs over me trying to explain what to do. rene was quite a crack up..comfortable in front of the camera for sure. so funny. they laughed at each other the most. they are having a baby in the fall. starting on a new journey…their first baby….so excited for them. thank you finding me shelley. it was fun…even in the rain. best wishes for a happy baby and wonderful marriage! Hi Meg, I found your blog through several blog links as well and have been reading for some time now. I love your pictures, your creative endeavors, and reading about your family! Thanks for posting!
what a beautiful couple. their love for each other shows through in their smiles. i have goose bumps right now. awesome shoot meg!! some of your best photos!!!! so sweet! Oh so lovely! You have a magical (no, it’s totally a talent) way of capturing moments, and personalities! These are so wonderful. What a beautiful couple, actually both are! I love these photos. There is something so warm and loving about them — and the photo of the parents — all so happy and filled with love. Thanks for sharing! NEAT.NEAT.NEAT!!!!!!!! I was so surprised when I looked at your blog today. I know Shelly! Joel and I went to China with her way back when we were in college. I haven’t seen her forever. The pictures are beautiful! i love that! what a great couple…and super fun too! What beautiful people and pictures!!!
They are too precious! I LOVE the way he is looking at her in the 2nd (?) picture 🙂 The parents are just as sweet – what great pictures!!
You do such a great job capturing joy!! I can feel the happiness! Those are just great Meg. Don’t they just look like the happy couple and the parents…too cute!
I actually know these two very well and felt quite surprised when they were the subject of this post. I must say, they are dear people! I came upon your blog via The Macs. Gotta love the blogosphere. Beautiful!!! So sweet – I love the one of the parents kissing.
That post just made me so happy…thank you for sharing!!! They look so happy! As always, great pictures! This just really made me smile. 🙂
