This girl is incredibly special to me–my first session with her, she was in her mom’s belly. I was there to photograph when she was born, and photographed nearly every year of her life since. I can’t tell you how much this means to me, and how blessed I am that “my job” is to meet and witness people grow as they live their life. I hope that I also photograph Chloe’s wedding….someday. ;)

Chloe is bright, shy at first, and she’s always been fairly stoic during photography sessions…she’s a precious little soul.

I know a lot of people around here get annoyed with the snow, but our family loves it. I suppose it’s because we are homebodies, and it gives us the excuse to “hunker-down.” We strike a hot fire, cuddle up, and cook good food. It gives us a great scene out our window, and precious memories outdoors for the kids. Here’s a look at our snowy winter weekend via the instagram/iphone…

-Brett worked with the boys training them on making a proper fire

-The kids shoveled the driveway, and then played for a while

-Gabe came in from the cold and snuggled up in our bed

-Saturday morning Brett and I woke to noises downstairs, and the kids had made us a huge breakfast from scratch–major heart melting moment

We post to instagram daily. Feel free to follow along with our crazy life… @jesszwo @brettzwo
