Veronica...a senior

I got to know Veronica at her sister's wedding last fall. It's amazing how one person can change so much in such a short amount of time. Last fall she had braces and long hair. Obviously, things have changed, including the loss of 20 pounds! Way to go! Veronica is going to beauty school on top of finishing her senior year. She had the opportunity to have a complete make-over at a hair show by stylists from California. I love the new look and kudos to you on your weight loss!

Anyway, we had such a fun time doing her indoor shots and I can't wait for her outdoor session. She is so much fun to be around and has the sweetest personality. I love how she already sees a vision for her life and is following her dream. Keep believing and go after it. Stay tuned for more...

Collin at 6 months...

It is hard to believe that this little guy is 6 months old! He is getting so big and even more adorable. The day of his session was definitely his day...nothing but smiles the entire time. His mom and I were getting so tickled when he would give a big smile and then put his hand in his mouth. Either way...cute shots. It wasn't until it was time to go home that he crashed and I had to grab a couple of shots of his "lovin' on mom" time. Enjoy!











Can you do this? ;)

Baby Joel is here...

What a story. First of all, I will try not to ramble, but there is a lot of information, so here goes. First of all, this session is of our new baby nephew, Joel. He was quite the special surprise and talk about adorable! Jeremy's brother and sister-n-law had tried to have children for several years and resorted to IVF which is how big brother Cale came into the world. For their second child, they thought they would try the natural way in hopes of it happening. Well, much to their surprise it did...and much sooner than they had planned. These two brothers will be about 14 months apart...wow!

Of course, these new moments were worth the documentation. They happened to be visiting for a long weekend, so we took advantage of the opportunity. Well, things didn't go exactly as planned. Baby Joel was a little out of sorts from his long travel and we thought it would be fun to get a picture of all of the grandkids (6 under the age of 5) for Grandma. All of the stimulation made for a long session. It worked out just fine...besides we had some time to catch up in the midst of the craziness. :)







These two shots make me laugh...smiles in one, chaos in the other...story of our night. :)

Kynsey turns 1...

It is hard to believe that lil' miss Kynsey is a one year old. I had the opportunity to document those precious stages of her first year and I am so glad I did. She is an absolute doll and has been full of smiles during her sessions. In addition to capturing these moments, I have developed such a sweet friendship with her mom. We met several years back and have since then, documented special events within their immediate and extended families...the next one being her brother's wedding. All of these moments have allowed this friendship to bloom. What a blessing. Love to you guys...

Kate & Lanny

Jeremy and I will be starting our wedding season this weekend and we are so excited that it will be with Kate & Lanny. Schedules and weather prevented us from getting their engagement session in earlier, but I am so glad that we were able to work it in before their wedding. They are such a sweet couple and the love they share is quite evident...just scroll down. :) It was wonderful getting to know them better and makes me that more anxious for Saturday. A special thanks to my good friend, Shelly, for joining me on this session. Shelly happened to be downtown with me for the OSP conference and had a new lens to try out. Thanks Shell! Anyway, enjoy and stay tuned for their wedding preview!
