Tis the season…for family photos
. My camera has been very busy this week! Hence all the blogging…is that how you spell hence? or is it hense? I’m sticking with hence.
Anyway…I got to hang out with this lovely family Saturday afternoon. I photographed the littlest member some months ago for his newborn pictures and I can’t believe how much he’s grown! I love to see my little newborns when they start getting some more personality. And he is one lucky little guy with these two big brothers. They love him so much and are so good with him…lucky mama with 3 amazing boys

Isn’t she beautiful here?!

perfect autumn morning {Central Illinois children photographer}

I don’t even have the words for this session. This sweet family met me early Saturday morning on a perfect crisp clear autumn morning. Big Brother N jumped out of the car, grabbed his bike and was off. A completely happy ball of energy! So we went off exploring…turns out he loves tractors, especially grandpa’s. We had a blast running all over and checking out all the nooks and crannies of this location. Poor Little Brother E was such a good sport. At only 4 months old he was bundled up tight and took a lot of trips back to the car to warm up, but so glad we got him out to play! I think this might be one of my favorite sessions of the year. The colors, the gorgeous boys…I just had a great time. I had a really hard time not just showing every image from this session…
Here’s Little Brother all bundled up and cozy…


I love that Big Brother is playing in the background here!



Sigh…this light was just amazing!










My first in-car shoot! {Washington, IL family photographer}
Posted on October 19, 2009
People, what is going on lately! 40 degrees in mid October?! This is insanity! This little angel was so good for us on Friday. We were all freezing, but with lots of breaks for warming up in the car…we worked it out. Little B has some of the most piercing blue eyes I’ve ever seen in my life! Totally gorgeous. But take a look at her mommy and daddy and you’ll see where she gets it from
. Thanks for freezing it out with me guys! You did amazing!
On another note…there’s still time to get your fall pictures done! The colors are absolutley gorgeous now and it does look like we’ll be warming up just a bit in the next weeks. But my available slots are narrowing down every day, so shoot me an email (stacy@anastasiamariephotography.com) or give me a call if you want a session done this year.
And now on to the beautiful family.










love. this.

Butterflies. My heart has butterflies when I look at the images from this session. I’ll post the entire sneak peek tomorrow, but I have to put something up today to wet your appetite
. Quite possibly my favorite session ever.

The Pink Coat {Central Illinois child photographer}

I do think its been too long since this gorgeous face has graced this blog. Ok, so it hasn’t been that long, but this is what I came home to after my session on Monday night. Dad decided to wait outside for me to come home and since it was the first coat-worthy day, he dressed her appropriately. He did good
. I love coming home to this!
