“If I had influence with the good fairy, I would ask that her gift to each child be a SENSE OF WONDER so indestructible that it would last throughout life.” -Rachel Carlson

Olivia was the winner of my “I love photography” photo contest a few months ago. Warning about the long blog post! I simply couldn’t choose. Beautiful child- and at that great age where everything is new and truly amazing-

Intense desire not only creates its own possibilities, but its own talents. Dont’ be afraid to do something just because it’s impossible. –Yobi Yamada

The only thing that seems impossible to my little brother is keeping his room clean. He is such a cool kid. Fly-fisherman, surfer, and awesome guitar player just to name a few. You have to see it to believe it– or just know the kid. xo

I love these brothers. This was my second time to work with them and they were just as much fun as the first time. I laugh a lot with these kiddos. I also love that I truly become friends with a lot of moms. Rachel is no exception- love her!  Hope everyone is enjoying this summer. Dayum is it hot- but how great is summer!?

…a man with guts and a horse. Kelton is all cowboy. The kid has had his own horse and boots since the day he was born.

There are no bluebonnets in June- I am just that far behind. eek. I am so glad to be getting caught up because I love sharing pics from my most recent shoots.!! I love my job!! xo

Ok- he is not all “bad-wild-boy” more pics on the way of Kelton doin’ his thang on the ranch.

Of all the animals, the boy is the most unmanageable.  Plato

Ah yes- Mr. Laura Haley Photography-KELTON- seen here in action… literally trying to run away. You would think after 18 photoshoots the kid would just get it over with. NOPE… he still makes me work for it. I love that kid, and wouldn’t have it any other way. Lots of pics from this session… 2 more Kelton posts on the way.

One of the best decisions I have made for Laura Haley Photography was having Wendy join the team. (and by team I mean ME- oh and my intern Kahlei!) She has taken over my in home sales/ ordering sessions and is rockin’. I love love love going in to my client’s homes and helping them order- but realized it was best for to separate myself as the artist from the $$$. We work together so well, and I consider her a great friend. Of course there are perks– how can I expect her to sale and really know products without have them all herself?! Here is her beautiful family. This post is a little different because I used parts of her “brag book” template. enjoy!

I know I know- I have been a bad bad blogger!!! eek- life has gotten nutso!

I have been excited to share Levi’s one month session. I am determined to get caught up- starting now- gotta go!! xo
