This is one of my beautiful senior spokesmodels Kendra! We had so much fun out in the snow yesterday…
I can’t wait for her full session in the summer. She is graduating in 2014 and will be helping me to book her friends!



I wanted to show some different edits here. I like to play a little with color and lighting.

Ok when I say I had fun at this session… I’m not kidding! I hate being cold but it didn’t even bother me one bit. This family was cool with any idea I had. These kids are so VERY polite and funny. I hope to photograph them again some day.

So excited! My family, friends, facebook fans and people I’ve never met polled together and helped me win the 2013 Castle Farms Cover Photo Contest!! This image will be on the cover of the 2013 edition of the Wedding Planner (given to every Bride that reserves at Castle Farms) and the 2013 Grand Bridal Expo program. Yay!! Thank you times a million for every single person that voted, reposted and told their friends. I had a view people that really went above and beyond for me and it touches my heart more than they will ever know.

This is a little update post. We have had so many virus’ this winter! We almost get better and one of us wake up with something again. Hopefully this time we kick it for good. I have lots of updates and fun ideas to come!
In this post I have two little newborn boys. A lifestyle session at one my clients home. PLUS my bestfriends little guys. I love balloons lately. I saw this quote recently, “Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero.” ~Marc Brown It sparked the idea for their little superhero picture.

These are some friends of mine… I just love taking pictures of them. They are so fun, stylish, photogenic and loving. The kids did so great! When I was doing a parent pic Ambrielle kept wanting to join. I was cracking up!

I’ve been on a good role taking pictures of my little man this winter. I’m a little proud of myself. Last year he hated my camera so I would give up for periods of time. Today my sister and neice had an “ice day” from school so before my husband went to work we dropped by the studio. I’ve had this idea since last Valentine’s day. I had the kissing booth last year… this year I thought we would keep it clean and cute. Tomorrow I will post Elleana’s take.
