These two gals were a TON of fun!  Their mom happens to be an old friend of Josh’s from WAY back.  So, it was super cool when she decided to hang out with him while I STOLE the girls away for an hour or so.  We giggled and made silly faces and talked girl talk a TINY bit.  But, the best part?  We got some rockin’ cool photos!

Here are just a few of my faves…

My camera was only an obstacle in her path!

Still, somehow, we all survived!  :)

Here are a few of my favorites…

Time flies when you’re having fun!

I’ve been photographing this little gal since she was brand new, and I just can’t believe she’s already 3!  Where did the time go?

She’s spunky.  She’s smart.  She’s so full of giggles and life!  She’s VERY MUCH like her mama!

AND…

she’s got a thing for Dora!  Who can’t respect that?

I always have so much fun hanging out with Kylie and her mom.  I can’t wait to see her again next year when she’s 4!  BUT, for now, here are a few more…

]]> http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/kylie-3-years/feed/ 1 Cari – 4 years http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/cari-4-years/ http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/cari-4-years/#comments Tue, 16 Aug 2011 06:08:16 +0000 Shannon http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/?p=5702 It’s that time of year again.  Time for Cari’s birthday to roll around!  This year, she’s turning FOUR!  Time sure flies when you’re having fun, right?

You’d think she would totally LOVE ME by now!   I’ve been snapping photos of her since before she could even walk.  BUT, every year, it takes lots of treats and silly faces to make her smile.  I know one day, I’ll show up and she’ll have gotten over that shyness of hers and be SUPER excited to see me.  Right?  Well, a girl can hope!  :)

This year, Cari has a new sister.  So, we had to get her in a few shots, too!  We had tons of fun buzzing through Hafer Park in Edmond.  It was an early morning shoot, so the weather was great!

AND, can I just say, I love that Cari LOVES Hot Wheels!  Finally, a girl I can relate to!

and maybe eat an icy pop or two.

Here are a few of my favorites!!

Here are some of my favorites from this time around!

]]> http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/growing-boys/feed/ 0 Toothless is even better… http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/toothless-is-even-better/ http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/toothless-is-even-better/#comments Wed, 02 Mar 2011 05:40:28 +0000 Shannon http://www.shannongurneyphoto.com/blog/?p=5273 I’ve got lots to say today, but for now just a little happiness to share.

Happiness in the form of one of my favorite families.  I can’t wait to show you more from their sunshine filled session.  Happy Wednesday and big toothless grins for all of you!

I thought she was hard to catch last time I saw her, but this time…whew!  I was super excited, after looking through the photos, knowing I caught a few of her looking my way.  I’m pretty sure she thought I was a little nuts, but that’s okay.  Most of my clients think that, right?

I love Kinsley’s parents, too.  Both of them are in education.  Dad is a principal and mom was a teacher (before staying home with Kinsley).  The fact they love children and understand them shows in Kinsley’s behavior and attitude AND crazy speech skills.  She’s lucky to have them as a mama and daddy.

I guess I’ve rambled enough for now.  I’m fairly positive Kinsley’s mom is skipping all this mumbo jumbo and getting to the pics, anyway.  Happy Thursday!
