Fall 2013 Family Photography Session

It's easy to look back and be especially grateful for the little things in my life, the small blessings God grants daily in the simplest of acts. This photography session will, forever, be one of these blessings. It was an afternoon of laughter, smiles, friendship, and family. I'm so thankful for Laura Stiller and her eye behind the camera...to capture a very busy almost eighteen month old Annelisa, her daddy, and me!

Here are few of my favorites..and yes, they will be making their way into our upcoming Christmas card! :)

Pailes Family Photo Session

In honor of my mother-in-law, we, all the children, spouses, and grandchildren, hired Laura Stiller from Still: Life Photography to do a WHOLE family photography session. We all met at Bob Woodruff Park in East Plano on May 18, 2013 for what turned into a very fun afternoon together!

Here are some of my favorites from the afternoon:

There are tons of others! I just don't want to spoil the fun for the rest of the family! 

Watch Me Grow Video

Laura Stiller, from Still: Life Photography, surprised us with this sweet video walking through all four Watch Me Grow sessions during Annelisa's first year! I love the music and the order of photos! It's been so fun to watch, over and over again! I'm sure Annelisa's Grammy and Mimi (and her Aunties) will enjoy watching it a few times as well.

Thank you, Laura! We have LOVED working with you! And look forward to sessions in the future!

Her first session was on March 30, 2012 as a newborn, second session at 6 months, September 22, 2012, third at 8 months, December 1, 2012.

Watch Annelisa Grow: 6 Month Photo Shoot

We had the privilege of completing our next Watch Annelisa Grow session with Laura Stiller, from Still: Life Photography, on Annelisa's 6 month birthday, September 22. The photo shoot was gorgeous at a Towne Lake Park in McKinney, only a few blocks from home! The weather was a little warm, but you couldn't tell in the finished product!

Make sure you check out Laura's blog (linked above) and you can like her on Facebook to watch all of her sneak peeks for our future photo shoots and all the others she does!

Here are some of my favorite pictures from 6 months!
