Studio Mini Sessions

Okay you guys. This was so much fun. I loved photographing these kids (and a teen) today. Talk about super adorable.I have photographed my boys on this simple, white background studio set several times before and we always have so much fun. I let them do what ever. Act goofy and simply let them be kids. So, I decided I needed to offer this to others and I did just that this weekend.
