Hi, my name is Gayle, and thanks for visiting my new & improved blog!
A little information about me: I enjoy eating chocolate, laughing out loud, dancing with my boys, and doing almost anything outside with my family.
If you're interested, follow me on twitter at @missgphoto or become a fan on facebook!
I had the honor of photographing Heather & Jason’s sweet family last year for their little boy’s birthday, and I was thrilled when she let me know that she was expecting again! It was so fun to see them again the other day – her belly is so cute! I love this family! They are so adorable, and I cannot wait to meet the little one who will be here soon!
Thank you, Heather & Jason, for the fun shoot! 
I can’t wait to see you again soon…
Love,
This little guy is one of my favorites – I have been photographing him since he was a newborn, and I cannot believe he is already turning two! As always, I enjoyed hanging with him and his super cool mama during his recent fall photo shoot (although the temps were still warm enough for short sleeves!). What a fun, smiley dude he is. Happy Birthday, Cade!
Love this one!
taking it all in…
I love photos of mommies with their little boys!
Cade, I hope being two is awesome!
Love,

This family is one of my all-time favorites. Not only are they some of our dearest friends, but they are some of my best clients. We decided to meet up in Wash Park for some photo fun, and they did not disappoint!
Nothing like a little silliness to get things started!
How great is this?
Sweet little guy climbing the tree…
…and an oh-so-handsome older brother! Love those blue eyes!
And I have to end on this…so much fun!
Lauren, Ryan, and the boys – we love you! Thanks for the fun and for the opportunity to capture your beautiful family!
Love,

I love photographing this gorgeous family. Last year, I had the pleasure of doing their photos before sweet baby sister arrived, and this year it was so fun to include her. The two boys are close in age to my guys, and I just love watching their fun together – it reminds me so much of my family. They really enjoyed running/rolling down a big hill over and over towards the end of the session – jeans were dirty, but it was the perfect activity for these boys.
Bronwyn and Scott, thanks so much for the great time capturing the fun and adventure of your family!
Gotta love being thrown in the air by daddy!
And hanging out with mom is super fun, too. 
So sweet!
Love,

When the mom of these three adorable kids contacted me for photos, I was so excited. We’ve known them for a few years now, and they are all just beautiful. They recently added a third baby – a boy – to the family, and he is well-loved by his two big sisters! I had a blast with them recently, as you can see below. Enjoy!
The girls started out by showing me their play room – which had some lovely light.
Here is the oldest telling me about her favorite toys. I love those lashes!
Gorgeous little sister was curious about my camera! Those eyes are stunning.
More lovely lashes…
Look at this guy – he could not be any cuter!
I had to do a story board of each child because there were just too many fun shots! Here is the little charmer.
This girl is simply adorable!
Beautiful and sweet oldest sister…
These photos below totally crack me up – you never know what you’re going to get with three little ones! (Don’t worry, mom, we did get some of them all looking at the camera – this just made me laugh!)
Sweet sister moments!
What a fun session! I am so thankful that I get to spend my work time with people like them!
Love,

This family started out as clients (friends of our friends) and I am so thankful to say that now they are dear friends and cycling/triathlon buddies! I am always so honored to do their photos, and I think their two kids are some of the cutest I get to work with. We enjoyed some great sunset light/sun flare, and I had such a hard time narrowing down photos of their kids that I did a big ole collage of them!
Ahh…I love me some pretty light…and a beautiful family!
Um, can you say cute?!
What a handsome guy!
Gorgeous little girl!
I love these photos…they are so real and adorable.
How sweet is this?!
A sweet moment with daddy.
I realize this one below is a little unconventional and not in my normal style, but I love playing with alternative toning and textures. Plus, just look at his face – pure joy!
What a fun session!
Thanks, guys, for such a fun time!
Love,

It’s always such a special honor to go into a home to photograph a newborn, especially when the little one is only a week old! I enjoyed meeting sweet Kaden last week. He was nice and sleepy for most of my time there, which was great. He did need a break to eat, so I had a blast with his big sister, Ashley, in the back yard while we waited on him…she was adorable, as you can see below.
Congrats to our friends Scott and Liv on their new addition to one beautiful family!
Meet sweet Mr. Kaden
a very proud daddy
Miss Ashley and I went in the back yard while Kaden ate and she totally charmed me! Spinning, showing me all of her dance moves:
This child is a knockout!
beautiful.
seriously?? I could have taken her picture all day!
what a great smile!
Then I went inside and got to hang out with sweet Kaden some more.
He’s just perfect.
Oh, the adorableness was abounding…
He didn’t mind being in a bowl…
It even made him smile just a little.
A sweet moment with daddy…
and mommy…
and finally, with big sis, who is so proud. Such a great family!
Welcome to the world, Kaden. We’re glad you’re here!

I had the pleasure of doing little Mr. Brooks’ two year photos recently. I found him particularly adorable, not that all the kids I photograph aren’t adorable, but he was especially cute. I think I have a thing for redheads…perhaps because of my cute little redheaded nephew. I also enjoyed this session because his mom and grandma were so cool and fun to be around – it was a great time!
Thanks again, Tracy, for the great time photographing Brooks and chatting with you! Without further ado, here is some adorableness:

I’ve known this family since I had my first son and joined a playgroup – the mom, Lisa, was so kind and welcoming to me as I waded the unknown waters of playgroups, and we’ve been friends since. She and her husband now have three gorgeous kids with huge brown eyes – check them out! We enjoyed playing in the park at sunset (once we were properly covered with bug spray, that is), and I caught some great moments of their adorable family.
The oldest, Brooklyn, is such a pretty little lady now…she showed me some of her dance moves!
A.J., who is my older son’s age, was full of energy and charmed me with his talk of dinosaurs.
Sweet little Kamryn – those eyes! I just wanted to eat her up!!
They just played around as a family – it was so sweet. I love my job!
I love this little moment between Lisa & Kamryn!
The big kids had a good time looking for fish in the pond – cute!
Until next time,
miss g
I’ve been neglecting my blog again, but the reasons have been good…a lot of work, and oh yeah, a baby! The title of this post is appropriate, because today I heard my THIRD baby’s heartbeat for the first time. Yes, you read right, I am expecting a new little one in January. I don’t care who you are or what situation you’re in, to hear the sound of your baby’s heart is simply mind-blowing and always emotional for me. I can’t believe we’re going to add to the craziness of our already busy household, but I know that God must have something in mind for us by letting this happen!
So, with babies on my mind, I wanted to do a long-overdue post of sweet baby Olivia and her big brother, Logan. Logan charmed me from the moment I entered their home, singing songs, running around, and talking away. Olivia, who her parents said had always been sleepy, decided to be wide awake for me! I took advantage and captured those beautiful eyes. I wonder if they’ll be as blue as her big brother’s! They are gorgeous!!
Is this one handsome older brother, or what?!
Beautiful girl, ready to greet the world.
I love this little collage.
I also love this one: I think they’re trying to figure each other out.
Love,
miss g
