{ A Fabulous Christmas Gift from the Koss Girls }

What started out as a session to do Senior Portraits turned into a fabulous gift idea from the Koss Girls for their parents.  


Katherine, who babysits for our children and Claire are just beautiful girls and when they asked if we could head to Hammond's Ferry for a surprise Christmas gift portrait session for their parents... I was so excited.  

 
They blew their Mom away with what she found under the Christmas tree!  


Thank you Katherine and Clare for letting me take part in your beautiful gift.  www.MaryBethsPhotography.info

{ Watching the Toney Boys Grow }

I have been taking portraits of the Toney family since Nolan was 6 months old.  Look at him now... 4 years old!!  


I have loved watching the boys grow up since meeting Amy in Mother’s Club so many years ago.  Life has changed for us... as it always does.  



Amy and her family have moved out near Greenbrier and I had a fabulous time taking the portraits at a pond area near Greenbrier Elementary School, right near their subdivision and their new home.  


Over Christmas break, they moved into their new home and it is just precious.  Thanks Toney Family- You are always such a fabulous family to photograph!!  www.MaryBethsPhotography.info

Two-Year-Old Ellie is Adorable


Fabulous little Ellie turned 2-years-old and I was so excited when my good friend Michelle asked me to take her portraits.  
 

In an adorable twist, Michelle brought a rocking horse that her husband Cliff’s co-worker had made for Ellie.  


In true two-year-old fashion, Ellie couldn’t sit still... So, Michelle and I put our brains together and Michelle walked outside and peeked though the window -  Viola!  


Little Ellie’s smiles turned on and we got some great portraits!!  www.MaryBethsPhotography.info
