the dellaire family

I had so much fun with the Dellaires. Even though they have 4 kids under age 7, they were the easiest family to work with! Being so relaxed and up for anything, they made my job so easy. And, I just love the glimpse into each child's personality. I really feel like I get to know them, even in the short hour and a half I work with them. Of course, it helps that we're already friends! You guys are great!








I love this shot, but when I showed David, he didn't like it. I showed Miss M, and she loved it too. I wonder if toe/feet shots are a girl thing?






I love the imperfection of this one. To me, it captures the essence of what life with 4 kids must be like. Am I right?





So, I also have to mention that today is our anniversary! 9 years. I'm starting to sound old. If I'd been on top of my own family photos, I'd have taken a photo of David and I yesterday to post today. But, it will have to wait until tonight. He's taking me out to dinner and then to an "artistic, musical show." He won't tell me which one. I'm looking forward to a date tonight! I'll post our anniversary photo and update tomorrow. Happy Anniversary, David! I love you!

the coys: reception

The maid of honor gave a touching toast in which she announced that shortly after Connie and Rich started dating, she knew he was the real deal. After that he became known as the "real mccoy." I loved this, and now think of them as the "McCoys." Here's your last preview, guys. Can't wait to show you the rest!


I loved the idea of adding fruit to the centerpieces!


Such a unique, gorgeous cake topper.



















This little guy loved being the center of attention for most of the party. He's getting an early start on his groovin' skills.
