| Mila Harper 1 Year |

It’s hard to believe that little Mila will be a year this month!  We did newborn pictures at six days old and a fantastic family shoot last fall!  Her smile is contagious, her laugh is adorable, and her personality is so much fun!  She loves her rocker and was such a big girl sitting in it.  She kept a close eye on Mo and made sure he got an extra little bit of lovin’ and was ready to take off as fast as her little legs could carry her!  It has been such an honor to capture her and her gorgeous family at the important stages of her life and I can’t wait for the next time!  Happy Birthday Mila!!!

| Brent & Christy |

Brent & Christy are getting married this fall and I have the honor of getting to capture their special day!  We spent a buggy bit in the woods while dodging some rain drops!  Luckily the rain held off until we were done!  I always love when a couple starts out a bit shy and by the end of the session, they are ready and geared up to try anything.  Christy had been researching and scouting locations and found some great poses that she wanted to try for the two of them, it’s always fun to build a session around a couple’s idea and help bring their thoughts to life!  Thanks for a great afternoon, can’t wait for October!

| Allie Black 1 Year |

Meet little Allie!  She will be turning one in just a few short days and couldn’t get any cuter!  That gorgeous smile got so big when her Daddy came outside with us!  She was ready to take off walking with her Mommy’s hands for balance and loved swinging!  We heard lots of “ruff,” “uh oh,” and “da da” through the session, such a happy girl!  This weekend she gets to celebrate turning the big 1 with her family!  Happy Birthday Allie Gator!

I’ve known this gorgeous girl’s Mom and Dad for a long time and was thrilled to get to put her 1st Birthday invitations together!  True to her roots, this little one is a John Deere loving farm girl!  Can’t wait to watch her grow and get those little piggies out in the show ring!  Happy 1st Birthday Allie!

| Bre Sharp Senior Invitations |

Graduation season is quickly approaching and it’s always fun when when of my seniors comes back and wants me to create something special for their invitations!  I love getting to combine both photography from their session and a custom graphic design for their invites!  Typically I will do three different layouts and they will pick their favorite, but Bre and her family loved all three and wanted to split their order so they could have some of each!  For Bre I went in three different directions, one to reflect her love of sports, a classic rustic look, and one a bit more formal where she could show off her favorite shots.  I love that with graphics and invites it is a blank canvas and every design comes together to fit that wonderful senior that I was able to capture so many wonderful shots of!  And the final prints turned out great!

Bre will be celebrating her graduation from LCHS with her family and friends on May 23 with some yummy food, great conversations, and a wonderful time out on their farm!  Congrats Bre and thank you for allowing me to be an important part of your senior year!

| Schriner Family |

This family holds a special place in my heart! Having grown up with Sarah and Cindy, has been wonderful to watch their families grow! Our morning was much warmer than we had anticipated, making it a bit easier on the little ones to be outside longer. And how cute are the three girls! Those smiles on Emma and Morgan, loving on little Alayna, too adorable! Thank you for a wonderful Sunday morning session Schriner Family!

| Saul & Paige | Save The Dates

I love every job that I get the opportunity to work on, but ones for family are always just a bit sweeter!  I’m also thrilled when I get to attend a family wedding as a guest rather than the photographer; photographers do like to put their cameras down every now and then, lol.  So in this case I can not take credit for the engagement images, but I was thrilled when Paige asked me to put together their Save The Date postcards with their gorgeous images!  Every graphics project I do is custom, we build it around you and your style, so no two will ever be the same.  I encourage clients to go online and find a style or look that they like, and we can build from there!  And that’s exactly what Saul & Paige did!  Thank you both for allowing me to be a part of your special day, looking forward to May!!!

| Lauber Wedding |

While exhibiting at a local Picker’s Paradise, I ran into a longtime family friend whom I hadn’t seen in years!  After much talking and visiting, I was creating her son’s wedding invitations and planning their wedding session!  I was so happy at her excitement of finding someone who could do both the invites and take the pictures at their special day.  Having known her oldest son in school and meeting her youngest at the Picker’s event, I had never met the middle son.  A few months later after emails back and forth, I finally met the Bride, Nanzhu, and Groom, Aaron!  They were so laid back and ready to start the planning process!  We carefully went over invite details, created, and produced invites, then went on to planning how to capture their special day!  Nanzhu is from China, so they had the joy of adding little Chinese touches here and their to incorporate her heritage.  The day finally approached, from great looking tuxes on the guys, to three dresses for the bride, it went off without a hitch!  So many family members showed up to celebrate this great couple and show their support for their future together.  Congrats to Aaron & Nanzhu Lauber!
