Today I met the Slatky family at the Botanical Gardens. We could not have planned a better day to shoot at this location. The boys enjoyed the freedom of space and activities the Gardens offer while I captured some awesome shots.

Meet the Slatky family... Mom and Dad (Shannon and Kevin)

Meet Tyler. He is very lucky to have the title as Big Brother. Tyler was a great little helper as he brain stormed various ideas of poses he liked. He was also lucky to get some one on one time with his Dad.

Meet Brandon. This little guy will be one year old very soon. His feet were made for walking and he let loose and enjoyed himself as I captured his one year old portraits. Brandon did a great job and if he enjoyed the edible flowers as much as he enjoyed his walking feet we may have a little chef in the works.


I spy....Mom and Dad smiling at you...

Thank you!

Nick and Nicole

Nick and Nicole had a beautiful day. They exchanged their vows at Smith Park. The weather was PERFECT! The guests were comfortable, the groom handsome and the bride was not only beautiful but very relaxed. Take a glimpse of the eventful day.

Children are one of the highlights of weddings. They are full of surprises. The best approach to capturing their personalities is to have no expectations. Conner and LaNeya were great to watch all dressed up with somewhere to go, flowers to throw and crowns to show.

Congratulations Nick, Nicole and Conner!

Matt and Renetta

Congratulations to Matt, Renetta and Dylan! The day was gorgeous and you were a wonderful family to work with.

Renetta you are beautiful!

The chapel had many unique details to work with. From the flowing colors to the architecture, the building was a joy to photograph in.

Real men hold bouquets!

a bit of romance

happily ever after....

It was a blast taking photos for these boys. As you can see below not only are they handsome fellows but they are very animated as well. Best wishes to Finis and Sidney as they venture forward after graduation. Good luck at your game on Friday!
