Our niece Makena is six months old!  I can’t believe how fast time has flown by and how much she has changed since the day she was born.  On Sunday, we met my sister Amy, her husband Jim and Makena at Freestone Park in Gilbert to take some family photos for them.  My mom Nancy also came along to help us keep Makena entertained.  She was so funny making ducky noises and jumping up and down with us to get her to smile!  At one point she even did some reflector work for us – thanks for all your help Mom!  We know who to call next time we need an assistant :-)

Here are some of our favorites from their session:

LOVED Ryan’s perspective for this shot of them on the bridge :-)

Makena and her proud Mommy & Daddy . . .

This one of them playing makes me smile and I super love the colors! So cute!

At one point, I JOKINGLY suggested that Jim hold Makena upside down for a few shots – I should have known better!  Ha ha ha!  She looks a little confused, but seems to be having a pretty good time . . . .

“Nana” got in on the action too :-)

Some fun shots of little miss Makena :-)  What a cutie!!!

LOVE the colors in this detail shot Ryan grabbed while she was modeling her blue hawaiian dress :-)

And this last one is just too cute for words!

Love you guys!
