and I just had to include this one too.  I don’t think that Hudson quite knew what was going to happen on the ride, or maybe when it was going to happen!

School pictures have come such a long way.

I remember one year way in my past practicing my smile for weeks so that it would be just perfect for that one quick “shot” that would forever after tell people what I looked like at a certain age – kinda cruel in the middle school years (or as me and my sister’s sometimes call them, our ugly years) of a gal’s life.

True confession, I onetime purposely sent my pen pal an old school picture because I thought looked so much prettier in that one than the updated one.  (Is that really what I looked like?  *insert shudder* At least my mom loved me!) Man, I’m glad I don’t have to go back the stress of all that

Anyhow, it’s so fun to be able to take school pictures for other people now, and let them have choices! And I just love choices…..maybe I do want to go back in time and do a few re-takes….either that or burn a few choice photographs

The good news, this gorgeous girl is my sister.  The bad news, I don’t think we resemble each other – rats!

so photogenic;  and to any interested guys out there, so unavailable for like 5 years minimum – tough luck! (so says her big sister)

I really love the next two images

still more to come………..in case you can’t tell, we’re having fun with this!

and just so she doesn’t get a big head, here’s one of Brooke’s best from the lakes

and more to come…..

Just got back from the lakes, and couldn’t wait to post this from my little sis’ senior session (ok, so she’s taller than me now)
