Wonderous Wade

Little Wade is a very talented boy. At only two months old he can....

...enjoy a good joke and crack a smile (or a smirk)...

..charm adults with his every move (especially his Mama & Daddy), ...

recite his multiplication tables in his head (at least, that's what I think he was doing--I may be wrong--and he's not even using his fingers!), ...

...and he's already getting ready for baseball season.

That is, unless Daddy can get a football into his hands soon. :)

Senior: Melissa

Meet Melissa...another beautiful senior girl from Elk City.

Yes, it may be windy here, but you just can't beat a sunset in western Oklahoma. Natives that have moved away always talk about how much they miss seeing them.

This shot's for you, Melissa!

By the sneek peek I've collected here, you might think Melissa's quiet and somewhat serious, but she's really pretty spunky and full of smiles. My favs just happened to be the ones where she was doing "the somber look."

...like this one. Love that profile against the blooming bushes. Take a good look...these are the same blooming bushes that might not survive the blizzard-like conditions rolling into the area today. :(

Thanks, Melissa! Hope you enjoy your senior pictures!

Senior: Shana

Senior girls just keep getting prettier and prettier. I'm telling you, there must be something in the Oklahoma water! ;)

Shana brought along her favorite prop: her boyfriend, Mike! I always encourage seniors to bring special things to incorportate into their sessions whether it be a Harley Davidson, a puppy or a special person.

A little something in black and white....

...and a little something different--the antiqued look, I suppose.

No one is happier than I to see bushes and trees in full bloom. Now, if we can just get the grass to grow!

Enjoy your senior pictures, Shana!

Callie Mae

Miss Callie Mae just turned one! It's hard to believe it, because she used to be a tiny tot that looked like THIS and THIS...

Now, she's doing all sorts of "big girl" things like walking, feeding herself, calling all her gal-pals on the telephone...

It's a good thing I like the serious look because Callie is kind of a serious girl.

She was even more serious on this weekend because she had been feeling kind of crummy.

I thought the catchlights in her eyes looked strange, so I zoomed in...

...and found her Mama in the reflection.

And we couldn't close without one of big sis, Sophie, who is also growing like a weed!
