sweet baby emma

this little girl was a surprise for her family. What an awesome surprise. She is number 6 in her family and (as you will see on her blanket made for her by her grandma) the 42nd grandchild. I'm thinking she will be well loved, don't you?

What personality!!!

Pfaff family

We had so much fun with this old Ford. Fun to have a new place to photograph too.

Dad had some old pistols. These are the kind of pictures that dads love. I think this one below should be a huge canvas at his office or something.

Illinois.. a photographer's paradise.

All of these pictures have been taken in the last couple of trips to my sister's in Illinois. Seriously, I could photograph every corner of this old town. You should see all of the old cool homes. There are tons that look like the haunted mansion at Disneyland. I still haven't put up pictures of the cemetary that is so amazing there. I will do that soon (like in the next year. ha) I am trying to decide whether to go out there this fall to photograph more. hmmmm. So very tempting.
