So for those of you who are bitter that I’m on vacation…you might want to skip this blog.

It’s a funny thing being a mom. I spend all my time with my kids but, yesterday I got to spend one-on-one time with Adriah and I got to see a whole new side of her.

We already knew that she’s talks non-stop! (My sister says I need to watch the movie “Definitely, Maybe” because the little girl never stops talking either and I would laugh at the similarities!) Getting to share new things with Adriah means I get to learn about her as she reacts to each new thing. Let me give you an example: Matt stayed back with Leyton last night so Adriah and I went exploring…we went on new walking paths, played at the park, played hopscotch on the stones and ended up at a campfire. (SIDENOTE:I grew up going to camp then became a counselor as soon as I was old enough and still remember tons of songs we sang around the fire. No surprises there!) So, last night, I got to teach Adriah a classic echo song and then we made a smore to share (of course, she wanted 5 more but I cut off because the night before she was up til 10pm.)

Then to top off the day…we bought sponge curlers in Lutsen, I put them in Adriah’s hair before she went to bed and she slept in them. This morning she woke up to curly hair…just like her friend Delaney! I used to  put curlers in my own hair every Saturday night so, my hair would be curly for church the next day! This may sound dumb to you but, it was really fun to do girly things with my daughter. On vacation I don’t have the same responsibilities…and I’m more intentional about pouring into my daughter…I love her!

I love the variety of my job. One day I’m shooting a wedding in ornate reception halls and the next I’m walking with Senior down at old farm lane. It’s great. I’ve known this family since I moved to Minnesota 8 years ago. It’s incredible how kids grow up…man, that makes me sound really old!

Here’s a few from our senior/family shoot:

This was us having a little fun…Don’t get Cameron mad what ever you do!

They are a wonderful family and it was my pleasure to capture them at this stage of life!

Here’s a couple I got sent to me yesterday!

Hi Noemi,

I love seeing others favorites.

Attached is my favorite. I took it last summer at the lake and I love it because it is so carefree and innocent. Can you tell how cold my niece in the is (redhead in the middle)? She was shivering and had massive goosebumps, but refused to get out of the water.

Thanks for letting me share. See you at Joe & Katie’s wedding next weekend.

Hey! I love reading your blog and looking at all your beautiful pictures.
Thought I would send my my favorite picture!
This is one that Darrel took of Jadelyn shortly after Liliana was born. She
was running away from me and trying to get the camera from Darrel! I love
it cause it shows the pure joy of a child! And I love pictures of my girls!

Love ya
Sarah Ussery

I’ll post a few more later today…as fun as this is, I have to get shower and ready!

Here’s a couple pictures from a family shoot I did last week! These kids are gorgeous…I love it when my job is made easy by using beautiful subjects.

Kids being kids…and in this case screaming “cheese!”

I did let them play too!

I love “sisters” shots!

Ever since last summer when my brother (who’s also a photographer) captured my family I’ve been wanting to return the favor. Last week, when we were visiting, I got my chance! It was such a blast and a blessing to capture this family! My nephews are polar opposite. One is compliant and up for anything and the other can’t sit still so it made the shoot “interesting” but, we laughed the whole time! I sweat when I take pictures of kids 12months-18months cause I’m entertaining the whole time…I’ll do anything for a great shot!

Here’s a couple:

I love my family!
