If I had to give my weddings a title, this one would be: The Tiny Dancer and the Piano Man. Casey and Ash met as performers on cruise ships – more about that in their engagement session blog post. They are so talented and smart and probably the most fun travel buddies. They planned a […]

I’ve been enjoying the holiday seasons, but its high time I get this sweet couple’s engagement session out for the world to see! These two suggested their church for their session, but let me tell you. This isn’t just any church. Gorgeous grounds, historic gardens, a large manor house, and an iron gate that looks […]

Andelyn and Brett have to be the most dynamic duo ever. Up for anything at any time, dancing through life to their own beat, and completely unashamed. All that, and they’re kind, welcoming, and you just want to be their friend. It’s what I love most about my couples – the spirit of hospitality. Andelyn and […]

So I’m back from a weekend of a wedding and some portrait shoots. My feet are still swollen, but I’m off them for a few days of editing, burning DVDs, packaging photos, uploading galleries, and of course, a little football mixed in. Football is something Chad and I love watching together. Our “shows” go out […]

Although I used the, “What do I do with my hands,” as a cute blog post title, it is actually a commonly stated concern for people when they are being photographed! Not only their hands, but, “Do you want me to smile?” “My hair is in my face; can I move it?” “What am I […]

Alas. A day late. But so worth the wait. Diana and Stephen are somewhere in the Caribbean right now. Sipping pretty drinks and getting a tan. If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you know that Diana is my childhood best friend. We met when we were 6, rode horses together, and when […]
