The Green Family

My Dear Green Beans, 

How could anyone not love you. Being with the Green family feels like home. I have, and not on rare occasion, called my own children by the names of Brian and Janet's kids. Annabel calls their boys, "her boys" too. It is pretty sweet. But it is also true. I cannot say enough how much I adore each one of you. I do miss you living right across the street but I also absolutely love your new home on your gorgeous land that thankfully is only a short drive from us still. 

Janet, I have wanted to take photos for you for so long and I am thrilled we finally made it happen and that it was at the best place imaginable. Your own piece of Texas dirt. You my dear, have saved me from the HEB parking lot numerous times. The most memorable ones were when I was pregnant and broken down in the van, which happened on more than one occasion, and do you remember that time that my van battery drained and killed your van? Those were fun times sister! I also often fondly think back on when you came to the hospital after Annabel was born and showered us with the most lovely baby girl gifts that I still cherish today (one being in her crib at this very moment.) And your boys feel like they are my very own. I am truly thankful we have you all in our lives and hope that we never know a time without you. 

Now, back to pictures! They turned out so wonderfully. We had lovely light, willing hearts and Landen to bring out the smiles in us all, the giggling fool. Boy do I dig you Landen. You march to the beat of your own drum and I sure do admire that. I haven't laughed that hard taking photos in a long time. 

Love you guys. Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you enjoy your time together with your families as well as these little beauties. 

*Muah*

Merry Christmas Y'all!

Family Session: The Bryant Family

I love getting to watch families grow as they add children and those children age from little babies to toddler to full blow little knuckleheads running around. 

It is such a joy. 

I think what I love best is getting to see a little lump of sugar grow to be a big brother or sister. Seeing Christopher and now Charlie hug and be together was such fun. It was a whirlwind Mike and Miranda but you guys just seem to get better with time. These photos turned out gorgeous, like always. I even struggled to narrow the keepers down there were so many good ones! And Grandpa Chris and Sally it was a real treat to see you both again and boy oh boy are you two cute together! Thank you for humoring me and letting me take loads of shots until I got all the ones I wanted, ha. You were all troopers for putting up with this bossy photo gal.

You have a beautiful family and are really fun to capture. I loved getting to hang out with you all for the morning. 

(and forgive me this "sneak peek" is rather large because I liked so many of the gallery! Ha)

Enjoy those beautiful boys and these, 

Amanda
