~{ The Uzarski Family- Brandon, Ella & Addison turn 3yrs}~

May 12, 2012 & what a beautiful day it turned out to be. Our first session attempt a week prior had to be postponed due to rain--so we were so very thankful when this Saturday turned out to be a fabulous one!!
  This is one amazing family here, I can not imagine being parents to triplets--work--go to college--run a marathon (Yes, Mom ran a marathon the morning of the photo shoot & still got all the kiddos to take a nap & got them all beautiful/handsome for their pictures) & be just about the best parents I know.
I was also overjoyed to see Chad, Marie & the kids--this was one of the very first families I had the opportunity to photograph (just starting out)--I feel so blessed to not only be their photographer now--but also to be their friends. Watching the kids grow & become such beautiful people!!

What can I really say, besides what a lucky photographer I am!

~{ Celes}~

Ok seriously who can resist big blue eyes & a complete bundle of sweetness...well this photographer sure can't. This is lil Miss Celes & what a cutie she is. She came to the studio talking (or should I say babbling) up a storm. She was giving me huge smiles & lots of cooing..off camera...but as soon as I pulled that camera out...it was all "serious" then.

Both Mom & I tried our best to gain her attention & get those smiles (we used silly noises, clapping, snapping our fingers, shaking car keys)---she just had to do it in her own time. She sure taught us..haha!!

Once she let all that sweetness shine...her session was just about as perfect as she is.
I had a fabulous time with this lil baby girl!
