Zack and Brooke were married last Friday. It was a PERFECT day. The afternoon ambient light diffused in all the right places, the breeze was cool enough to hold off the mosquitos and there was NO rain  Zack and Brooke were surrounded by family and friends as they united at Green Isle Park. Thank you for including me into your intimate day of love and joy and best wishes for a future full of dolls and the color pink to go along with your little guys obsession of ants and sticks. It will be the perfect balance to your family.

Chad and Ashley~engagement

Chad and Ashley are a wonderful couple. (I am not declaring this because we live next to each other, it's true. haha) We had fun at Bay Beach capturing their engagement session and even had their cute dogs cooperate for a few final portraits. I will say a couple of days after this session Ashley fixed my long over due hair (not) style with a good trim and my eye brows have never looked so good. Really, NEVER. Thank you and I look forward to your September wedding :) 

Enjoy.

 Tiny and Princess were terrific when it came to their turn for a photograph.

Dave and Mary Lambrecht

As I introduce this blog I was searching for an inspiring quotation as a description for the love Dave and Mary share.  I have not found one that was a complete fit.  I could attempt a story to highlight the two of them but a story would not reflect what photographs capture. As a photographer it was an honor to be part of an intimate ceremony. As two beautiful people were united with their families into forever I was seizing the moment through a lens. Thank you Mary and Dave for the allowing me to capture the magic. Love to you and your family. xoxo  

Here is one of their grandchildren. She warmed up to the camera for this cute shot.

Erica and Greg~ Maternity

Greg and Erica were fabulous to work with. I photographed their wedding day (WOW! almost 2 years ago, time flys!) and was pleased to capture this session of a blissful belly. Congratulation on their soon to be new addition of a little man! I have the perfect photo that unveils his name. The suspense of this particular photo will have to wait until AFTER the baby shower, this is where baby "X" will present himself to the guests with his chosen name.

Carter~18 months

Carter is at the adorable age of (a bit over) 18 months. He's an intelligent little guy who can throw a baseball really well. I thank his Mom for saving my face from a bruise as I was focused on the photograph and not the direction of the ball. Multi tasking and quick reflexes are something to work on as I am behind the lens. Enjoy a look at a few (or more) photos of Carter's session. I look forward to capturing some action shots of Carter at a ball field in a few years!

Jackson~6 months and growing!

Jackson's 6 month session was as flawless as a session can be. The image below is how he posed for a break in-between a change of clothes. After his short power nap he woke up ready for more. For a teething little man he was a trooper and offered a nice variety of facial expressions to capture. Thank you Jackson! I look forward to your 1 year session.

"MOM and DAD! I am hungry!"

The joy we receive from our children is...wordless.

When little ones are happy and teething they smile like this!

See you in July!
