The G Family | Carolyn Ann Photography

Before Amelia’s beautiful birthday party, I had some time to hang out with the G Family and get some family and individual portraits. I will just say this is one of the most loving, fun, awesome families I’ve ever met. Also there are some gorgeous blue eyes in this gene pool that will just melt your heart! Enjoy 🙂

Sisterly love (and Amelia helping Viv into the chair so I could take some shots)

Viv was KILLING me with these sunglasses (and the fact they are on upside down)!

Then we had some fun playing 🙂

LOVING this shot of Viv- so cute!

I know you’re thinking the same thing as me: Are you looking to adopt?

(waving hand in the air *pick me pick me*!)

Happy Birthday Amelia! | Carolyn Ann Photography

I was blown away by the darling details at Amelia’s 4th birthday party- rethinking my whole wedding theme ;).  Not to mention that Amelia might be the most charming young lady I have ever met.  I don’t know how her parents can handle those baby blues and cheeks on a daily basis!

The theme was Hello Kitty meets Valentines Day 🙂

I rocked one of these kitty ear headbands all day!

I was then priveleged to a tumble session by the birthday girl herself 🙂

I told you she was pretty amazing.

There was even face painting!

There was some serious present opening business.

And then some serious present playing-with business (makeovers for everyone!)

I stumbled into some top secret nail polish operation.  Then the door was closed on me 😉

cake time!

What a lovely day. Thank you for letting me a part of it!

Sheila + Eric Engaged | Carolyn Ann Photography

I met up with Sheila and Eric to shoot their engagement photos on Valentines Day! Sheila came dressed to the nines in some killer heels (no way could I walk in those!).  I had an absolute blast shooting with them.  They were goofy, gorgeous, and so in love ❤

Smokin’ hot 😉

Sheila cracked me up a few times 🙂

We found this precious chapel on campus, which made for some lovely shots.

And of course some iconic Iowa Cityshots

Thanks for the pleasure Sheila & Eric.  Congrats again!

I think I am in love with Amelia (which means I want to be her when I grow up…hmm how does that work again?)

her taste (pink, glittery, kitties)

her eyes (glowing blue)

and her ability to pose in anyway I asked her to.

photographer’s dream right here. stay tuned for more pics 🙂
