  1. wowzers T – this one really struck a chord with me – made my eyes well up – nice little pregnancy hormones:)

    kelli – you and your family are beautiful. LOVE the ones of you laughing – love the one of you being a mom and looking at your boys – you and your husband look great together.

    lucky, lucky, lucky!

  3. GULP! I am in tears. These are amazing. I am taking all other artwork and pictures down and filling my house with these! Too bad for Sara (Kelli’s younger sister, who doesn’t look anything like Kelli but is also lovely, but unlike her is a full size adult!) But if she ever decides to get married, we are so flying out for you to do wedding portraits!! Words Just can’t describe how these make me feel. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  4. Beautiful…that’s all I can say. Felt like I was getting to know Kelli from her blog. Now I feel like I know her even better without even a word being said. You are an amazing artist, Tara!

  5. i have to say, that i really love the fact that you took so many of kelli. i think that for the most part, we mama’s are always BEHIND the camera and rarely in front. And she totally looks amazing to boot. Really, really great family shoot.

  6. GORGEOUS
    these are the images that any mother would treasure. these are the types of images that i want for my family….SOOOOO BADLY. these are the images that i strive for with my own photography. tara…these are breath-taking. they make you smile so BIG and just say AHHHH!! they tuuuuugggggg at your heart so strongly. i just adore them. you are so talented and kelli..you are so blessed!!! what a beautiful family!!

  7. Dude!!! These are awesome. I love all the pictures.
    Kelli: the one of you and hubby is really Cute. I can see these replacing the art hallway ;)
    Too precious.

  8. dude…simply STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you know how much you rock…I seriously don’t think you do. Man…drooling and plotting my way to come see you. I will have some photos from you soon, very soon. MAN!!!!!!!!

  9. Thank you so much for these photos. You really captured alot of the joy that is Kelli. The ones of her laughing really touched my heart. Kelli is the loveliest person I’ve ever met & your images really capture all that she is. Both of you R-O-C-K!!!!

    Tara — you did a fabulous job capturing Kelli’s family. So many great shots here.

  13. Sigh. I just love them – more each time I look at them. I have told all of my friends how to check them out. They look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them I’m going to fly Sara out for wedding protraits (now mind you, she is 21 and not even dating anyone right now), but then after they look at the pictures they say “it is so worth it!” If you ever want to come east and do some shoots, I can definitely set you up!
