My photo
Welcome to my blog - where I can share my personal life and my photography! I am married to the most wonderful man and I have an amazing little boy who lights up my every moment. I have always loved taking pictures but over the past few years it has really become a more serious passion. I think one of the most fun things about taking someone's picture is being able to CAPTURE that particular moment in time so that it can be held onto forever! I prefer natural light, on location photography that allows people to just be themselves. If you are interested in contacting me regarding photography please send me an email to holly@simplycapturedphotographybyhollybenfield.com Oh yeah, and I'd love to hear what you think ... so feel free to leave comments at the end of my blog posts. God Bless!!

A Boy and his Tent

Wyatt will be 18 months on January 27th. I thought his first year went by fast but I'm still trying to figure out where the last 6 months went because it feels like just the other week we were singing him "Happy Birthday" and watching him blow out his candle. He has learned so much in this past 6 months - its truly incredible to see how quickly he absorbs everything around him. About two weeks ago we were in Michael's and Wyatt turned the corner, looked up at me, and said, "Hey Mommy." That was music to my ears - He has always called me Momma but I've secretly longed to hear his little voice say "Mommy" and when it did I think I melted. I've melted a thousand times since ... each and every time that precious little face looks up at me and calls me Mommy. If he only knew how proud and blessed I am to be his mommy .... well, its probably good that he doesn't because he sure would try to get away with a lot more mischief.

Okay....I'll stop rambling on now and get to these pictures. I wanted to do a portrait session with Wyatt to mark his 18 month "birthday." Now - I'll let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy!!

And a BIG thank you to Andrew's Dad, Jim (aka Pappy) for building me the tent frame!!! I love it!
