Engagement : Kristen & Buddy


I have a pretty good feeling about Kristen and Buddy's wedding coming up in June. I think it is going to be a fun celebration and a joy to photograph. Not only are they a super cute couple but they are also quick to smile, make each other laugh, and just have a good time.
They chose to have their engagement session at Forest Glen, a camp that they have both worked at previously. It was a beautiful location, I only wish we had had more time to take advantage of the beautiful woods and lake.

Luke: A Newborn


Although Luke was not even three weeks old, he handled his session like a seasoned pro! He has such a sweet and mellow nature and was pretty much fuss-free (at times I did think he might leap off the bed, he is strong!!). Newborns change SOO fast and it is privilege to be able to record their tiny hands, and little details that make them so new and unique....




Luke has his Mom and Dad thoroughly smitten.






Congratulations to ya'll, It was so neat meeting your precious little boy and watching you love on him!

Senior 09' : Preston

When Dustin heard I was shooting Preston's images he was very excited to come along.  You see Dustin LOVES Preston (sorry D, the truth is out).  Dustin has had the privilege of being Preston's small group leader at our church for the last several years and he can not stop saying enough good things about what a awesome guy Preston is. 

Dustin did a great job on his first senior shoot, one of his images...
Another of Dustin's, now Preston has a couple inches on my sweet husband so I am not sure how Dustin captured this one, maybe he was getting a piggy-back ride...

A Family on the Farm

When I photographed Jessica's senior pictures, Lori also asked if I could get some extra shots of their family plus some additional shots of Lori and their youngest daughter, Alyssa.

Senior 09' : Jessica

Jessica is everything her pictures would lead you to believe... Sweet, fun, a great friend, loving to her animals, and beautiful!!  I loved that Jessica had taken the time to write her own list of images she would like for her session and that she wanted her pets included. Not only were her ideas creative (anyone for jumping off the roof onto a trampoline?!) but they were also such a great glimpse into her character!!  When planning your senior session I highly recommended putting some thought into what YOU want and letting your photographer know!  I am very glad Jessica did!

Senior 09': Katy

I love photographing Seniors, they are always so fun! At the same time, I always leave the shoots feeling a little guilty. I was such a slacker in High School! Really, what was I thinking?! It seems all the 09' grads are hardworking, with great grades, and college prospects. Katy was no exception. She already has an impressive amount of scholarships and is a strong runner in her school's track team. Not only was does she have a great academic work ethic but she is also super nice, beautiful, and just maybe a little bit goofy (or more likely she was trying to help me feel not so left out)!












Katy, I had blast hanging out with you, let's be sure to get in your track pictures whenever the track is open!
