Oh BABY!

Meet LaYla!  I emphasize that Y in the middle, because leave it up to me to spell her name wrong on the cake for her momma's baby shower! So, here is her name, correctly spelled:

Layla Beth...

Isn't she adorable??? And her momma is one of the sweetest people I know. I couldn't be happier for this young family ~ Congratulations on this precious new little life that God has put in your earthly care. You are already wonderful parents. :)

 Oh those baby wrinkles!

Derek & Laura ~ 3/15/2014

I'm so excited for these two to get married!! Being one of my sisters' boys, I take so much joy in photographing this special family event, coming in March! I just officially met Laura this weekend, and have watched them hang out at the house a little - they are truly beautiful and so perfectly designed to be together. We are gonna have some fun at this wedding!

Oh, did I mention that it was COLD out for this session??!! 10 degrees. Yes, TEN.
In spite of this super freezing weather, they just wouldn't stop smiling, even as we moved from one location, to the other...
