Luke & Kayla are engaged...

...And I truly adore them. I know I say that with all of our couples, but it's true. We have been so blessed to work with such wonderful people. Luke & Kayla will be getting married the end of May at the home of her parents. It will be a beautiful outdoor wedding with exceptional scenery and a beautiful couple...can't wait!

One of the things I enjoyed the most about their session is Kayla's contagious laugh. I laughed right along with her and I was the one behind the camera. There were several times where Luke had her so tickled that we all had to stop and laugh. Of course, I can't forget to mention her adorable green jacket. I'm slightly partial to green anyway, but it looks awesome with her blonde hair in these pictures.


















This is my first try at this common jumping shot and I just had to share it. The first shot was hilarious because even though Luke had plenty of clearance Kayla was in the background ducking...hilarious! His face...love it...:)


I apologize for so many posts in the past two days. I had planned to put more of these up last week, but since it's tax season I needed to get that taken care of. Thanks to everyone for being patient. There is more to come with pictures, product, blog, website and places to go. Stay tuned for more...

Meet Julia...

Just wait until you see her smile. :) She had her smiles ready to go as soon as she walked in the door. I couldn't take it! I was afraid they would be all used up before the pictures started, but she had plenty more to share. It is quite obvious that she is a happy baby. As you will see below, all of those smiles wore her out and it was within a few minutes that she was asleep. Oh...the life of a baby. ;)

Anyway, stay tuned to more of Julia. Her mommy and daddy signed up for the baby plan and will be coming back soon. It was purely by random that I met Julia's family. We had a mutual friend that introduced us while Christmas shopping...and I am so glad she did. They are a very sweet family and I look forward to getting to know them better in the near future. Blessings to you...








I have that same expression when Jeremy kisses my cheek...gotta love facial hair. :)

The Moore kiddos...

I'm always amazed at how quick some of my favorite little ones are growing up. We had several milestones taking place for this session...9 months, a 3 year old and a big sis who I couldn't resist snapping a couple of pictures of. :) I know it won't be long before they are back to capture more memories of their childhood and I can't wait. I hope that these moments will be documentation of those precious faces, expressions and personalities that they can look back on and just remember. I love you guys!

Now I lay me down to sleep...

A few posts back I mentioned my acceptance as a photographer to the Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep organization. I received an email yesterday notifying us that the Today Show would be doing a segment on what it truly is. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see it first-hand because I was doing a newborn session of little Austin...more to come. ;) However, they do have a link and I just had to share. It is such a beautiful and moving organization and this segment justifies once again why I want to do what God has called me to do.

NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP on the TODAY SHOW

Matt & Ashley are getting married...

I love Matt and Ashley! They were such troopers on this "not so warm" Indiana day. :) However, the cold air was more than worth the results. They are such a sweet couple and it is completely evident how much they adore one another. They will be getting married the end of April and we are excited to be a part of their day. It will be a day to remember!

Jacklynn turns one...

Isn't she adorable? It seems like only yesterday that I took pictures of baby Jacklynn...and here she is today...turning one. She had plenty of smiles to share which made my job super easy. I have to give credit to Jaime, Jacklynn's Mommy, because she knew exactly what to do to get Jacklynn to giggle. All I had to do was push the button. :) Thanks Jaime! What a great start to our season... Enjoy the pictures.






...this picture taking thing sure is tiring. ;) I love it!
