I love, love this next shot…

Couldn’t get away without doing something humorous.

They had a photo booth, it rocked!  The guests loved it, I even got in there.

One of my all time favorite reception shots is this next one of Kate and her dad…

Late in the evening they brought out trays of McDonald’s cheeseburgers for everyone!

I so should have asked to wear the burger hat!  Dang it, why didn’t I think of it.

Kate and Adam are the ones that had a foggy setting when we shot their engagement session.  If you have time check it out here.

Thanks Kate and Adam for trusting me with your special day. You both have wonderful friends and family that were so good to us!

The cutest little cowgirl…

And her cowboy brothers….

I will be photographing a local preschool today.  I am excited.  I won’t be posting any photos on the blog or facebook but I will show you this one I took of my son Brandon.

I hope the kids give me lots of good smiles!!  If not I will just sing to them and that will for sure make them laugh which will result in a smile.  :)

Kierstynn brought her mom and dad to her senior session.  I love when both parents come.  Although I don’t recommend dragging dad’s to the studio, but I think it is neat when they want to come.  Kierstynn’s dad rocked.  He carried my stuff all over for me.  Thanks you three for a fun evening.

Grandparents!

And one of Vaughn.  He was at my studio August of 2008.  He lives in Indy so I don’t get to see him often.  He is such a little cutie and now he has a little sister.

If you want to see a couple shots from his session back in 2008 click HERE.

Thanks Jim and Susan for having me photograph your wonderful family!!

I met Jacob a few weeks ago at an event.  He kept smiling at me (yeah I have that affect on some people)  So his mom booked a session with me and I am so glad she did.  He was such a joy.  Jacob is one lucky boy, his mom loves him so much and is and she is such a patient lady.

And one last one… Jacob and his sweet Mommy!

Remember this little baby….

Well he is ONE…

Isn’t he so darn cute!   After the session I took him outside while his parents gathered up his stuff and I held him tight.  He reminds me of Brandon with that blonde hair and I just loved how he hung on me and how he giggled at Samantha.

Jeff and Abby you have such a sweet little boy, give him another hug for me.

Stunning sunset, stunning girl, and lots of mosquitos.  Luckily my clients are troopers and they don’t mind the heat and bugs.  Love u guys!

LOVE THIS SHOT!!!!

And here is Kassie’s family.  I loved how when we were done with family pictures Kip (her dad) and her little (yet taller) brother Kris stayed and hung out with us.  I hope it was a time that you all will never forget.  Kip- I was sooo close to posting the shot of you with the hat on, but I didn’t know if it was for public viewing.  You owe me!

I LOVE, LOVE this picture.  He was standing in the water with his suit on, how cool is that!

It was getting really dark out, but we just kept shooting.

Mark is Culver all the way.  He is in everything!!

Super duper fun evening with Mark, his mom and his brother.  So glad they will be back in a few years for his brother’s senior pictures.  Mark you will have to come with when I take those.

Enjoy your senior year Mark!!!

Mark’s mom was a great help, she had clothes ready to go so he grabbed and changed really quick.  It was great team work!  I even had his brother stand in a couple times so I could test lighting so when Mark was ready we just threw him in and snapped away.

I am going to start off  by sharing the last couple photos of the hot and humid evening with Courtney.  We were waiting for just alittle bit so the sun went down alititle more and all the sudden Courtney yells “RAINBOW!” so we scurry and grabbed a few shots before it was gone which didn’t take long it all.  It is pretty amazing there even was one last night because it only rained a few drops where we were.

Courtney brought her best buddy Megan… (yep the same Megan that was on the blog last week with the 4 horses)

Everyone has a friend that seems to be good at everything, well Courtney is that friend to many people.

First off, she sews.  The outfit she is wearing and the ones hanging on the stand she made.  Pretty cool huh!  She will be modeling the one she is wearing down at State Fair.  And then there are alot of trophies there in the picture from other 4H projects.

And she is one AMAZING gymnast.  Do you see what the jacket says there in the back…. “National Champion”

She is a cheerleader too. (I really good one!)  We are going to take her cheerleading pictures in the fall because she still has more medals to win in that category.

Huge thanks to Megan for helping with all of Courtney’s stuff!  I had so much fun with you guys, wish it wasn’t so humid, but if I had to sweat with someone I would rather it be you girls.  LOL
