I had about 10 minutes to capture some portraits of Big in honor of his 3rd birthday. It was windy, cold and he was cranky. These all make me laugh. I think I did a pretty good job capturing who he is at this age.
If you have had a 3 year old – don’t you think these just scream “I am THREE!”


All the pictures that are posted in a sequence took place in a matter of about 10 seconds….
way too much personality sometimes! He gets that from his dad












Best Friends. They wanted one just the two of them.


I’m kicking myself for not having Littlest dressed cuter (fleece pullover with no shoes/flipflops – totally our family)
Probably the best picture I have of all 3 of them - chokehold hug and all.

These shots are great!
Jeannette Swan - I’m always jealous of the great pictures you get!! They are all amazing!!
Kari S. - I love these pictures! That is about the timeframe I have to take Mekenzie’s pictures! I was asked to take some photo’s for a friend the other day and let Mekenzie tag along with our point and shoot camera- she did great for a 4 year old and things from her perspective were really neat. I’m dubbing her as my assistant! lol! Happy belated birthday to Hudson! Your family is precious!
Rebekah Motley - Hey Ashley…you’ve given me great advice over the last months and I wondered if you wouldn’t answer just one more thing
? Do you ever do any editing to your photos? I was thinking that if conditions aren’t just wonderful, sometimes I find myself wanting to enhance…what is your opinion on that? You know, skin softening, color enhancing, etc…just wondering
amanda - His little personality just shines through. It’s so neat to see all the differences in your kids. Each one so unique, but yet so special!
Lesley - These are so good. I love all Hudson’s different expressions, so cute!
Jenn G. - Cute, cute, adorable Hudson. I LOVE them!!! They totally capture him and all his moods. The only things missing to remember him perfectly at 3 are his cars.
Kirsten Hilsheimer - do you mind sharing the location of this shoot as well as the beautiful senior pics?
AshleyAnn - These were taken on the Oklahoma Wesleyan University campus in Bartlesville…by the library
Kirsten Hilsheimer - thanks!!! Also – LOVE the tutu outfit you just posted! Lauren had one similar….to cute!!!! I think the ripped up jeans are perfect for little girls too! Lauren looks cutest in jeans, t-shirt, and one of her big bro’s baseball caps!
