Get ready for a lot of lovely little personalities as you scroll! Oh my goodness. Kids crack me up. Some are such hams for the camera, while others are positively camera-shy. All are absolutely perfect and beautiful.

I meant to share these gems ON Valentine’s Day…but I was elbow deep in frosting and dusting sprinkles onto Valentine’s Day cookies. My kids were miffed we didn’t get to the annual Christmas cookie decorating this year (but hey! We did do gingerbread houses!) so I promised we’d do them for Valentine’s Day.

It is still the month of February that I’m posting these, so I feel like that’s pretty fantastic.
I announced these in early January, then held these Valentine Mini Sessions in Salem, Oregon at my studio in late January. I wanted to leave enough time for ordering and then designing and shipping the cards.

I loved sending photo Valentines of my kids when they were little, so this session is for those moms like me. I’d say they had the BEST Valentine’s Day cards in all of Oregon ; )
