Blake & Austin Sneak Peek

Okay, if I have ever said that I have done a session that was the easiest...I am lying...or rather that session has been "one-upped" (so not even a word). These boys were the easiest and fastest session I have ever done. Truly a photographers dream scenario. I was able to fill a camera card in less than 45 minutes...with GOOD pictures. After, I go home and sort through them and pick my favorites (24+)...but I had a really hard time because I liked them all! Plus, mom had great ideas and tips...which FYI...helps a ton! Anyways, this session was absolutely a blast and I am super excited to share this sneak peek with you.



Tender!


He kept folding his arms like this. I thought it was adorable!






Studs!




B is for....BLAKE!


A is for....AUSTIN!




Thank you for letting me capture a few moments of your coolest, extremely photogenic, and most well-behaved boys ever!

Sharlee & Zack Sneak Peek

Sharlee wanted their session done at the fair...the FAIR! This is not a normal venue for me, so I was extremely nervous...in an excited way, of course. Plus, this was a Saturday evening...which means...people, people, and more people....which added to my nervousness. It was a tad on the warm side...and I had to park a mile away. We were supposed to meet at the front gate...yeah...my bad call...there was more than one entrance. Luckily we found each other pretty easy.

I usually get a tad bit nervous for my sessions...but this one was way beyond any other I have done. I was excited and had some GREAT ideas in my head of how I wanted these pictures to turn out. I was just nervous that they weren't going to be what they had in mind.

Turns out...we had so much FUN! There were a lot of stares, a lot of bumping into people, and a lot of walking, but through it all, we captured some great shots...and I would even do it again!









Thank you, Sharlee and Zack, for letting me capture a few moments for your engagement! Best wishes on planning the wedding.

Eric & Jessica Wedding Sneak Peak

Eric & Jessica Tied the Knot!...and my husband and I were invited....and then, my camera was invited. What an honor! We have known this couple for a few years now because my husband used to work with them. We have LOVED and appreciated their friendship.

I think I was looking forward to this day more than the bride...okay, maybe not...but pretty close! The weather was perfect...a cool 75 degrees...in August...August people. Slight wind...which died down after much finger crossing! Perfect day as you will see. My cheeks hurt after this day from smiling and laughing. Take a look and see for yourself....

Warning: lots of pictures!

Keaton Senior Sneak Peek

I seriously LOVE my job!

I have so much fun capturing the personalities of my clients through pictures. Keaton...well...she was absolutely adorable and so much fun to work with...and should I mention...photogenic! Me, her, and my camera got along extremely well for this session! =)


I swear on my husbands name I did NOTHING to her eyes.




I like this one because she left her gum in her mouth!
Mom kept begging her to take it out!





Ummm....speechless......

Sean & Kira Wedding Sneak Peek

The day has finally arrived...after the engagement sessions...after the bridals and groomals...after much anticipation...Sean & Kira tied the knot!

The wedding was supposed to be an outdoor wedding, but due to the FrEeZiNg temperatures and rain we had last weekend, it had to be moved indoors. BUMMER! It was still beautiful and romantic.


One word to describe these photos...PERSONALITY!




Bridesmaids...I want their dress!
Anyone of you wear a size ?? and want to share!?


Ooooh-la-la!


Cute little flower girls! Especially the one on the right...(she belongs to me!...my husband is cousin's with the bride!).



I LOVED her colors and how modern everything was...maybe I am just getting old!



The book signing table.
I also LOVED the bird cage idea for holding the cards from guests!

Pay attention to the dessert stands. They went to different thrift stores, found candle sticks, spray painted them black, then glued different plates on...umm, yeah, I am so going to make me some...not sure why...just one of those things I HAVE to HAVE!





Thank you Sean & Kira, for allowing me to capture your wedding day!

Sean & Kira Wedding Sneak Peek

Okay....yes, I am alive and still here.

Thank you for being patient with me as we bought and moved into our new home...wow, that is a LOT of work! Now, it is time to get caught up....

I have done a few sessions for Sean and Kira in preparation for their wedding. What a cute and photogenic couple. My camera {LOVES} them!



I think I want to get married again...to my husband of course!



This is one of my favorites...and it was not posed. I was trying to get bride set up and situated and then looked over and seen groom sitting on a bench smiling up at her...PRICELESS captured moment!




Beautiful eyes!





Thank you, Sean & Kira, for letting me capture a few moments for your wedding day! I wish you the best future possible!
