Here he is modeling the new denim looking diapers…

Hello bright eyes!!

With parents like these two Victor is sure to be a basketball super star…

Miley can’t wait for the new baby to arrive….

I had to bribe someone with a flower.  Sometimes I wish I was a kid again and someone would bribe me to work.  I like Fanny May mint melt aways.  :)

Only posted a couple pictures because there were so many different groups and my luck I will leave someone out.  At the end we just did a quick shot of everyone that was at the family gathering.

Here is Dixie and her hubby.  Dixie use to work at the nursing home where my great grandfather Jernas was at.  She said he was a sweetie.

It was crazy hot that day.  I am thinking 90ish.  But these girls didn’t let the heat bother them they had a good time enjoying the 4th of July weekend and their families…

Had a blast hanging out with Elisabeth and her mom.  Here are a few of her senior pictures….

these last 3 are my faves…

It was got dark fast Wednesday night, so at the end of the session I had to find some light from other sources.

Proud of this next shot, it was so dark my camera could barely focus, I am so bummed that I had taken my little flash light out of my bag when we had no power.

I also have some sports shots we took in the studio.  I am gonna make a cool collage but don’t have the time today.  I will get that done and posted early next week.

Thanks Elisabeth for doing so well, and to Judy for always having the comb ready!!  :)

Kyle just graduated from Knox High School and his mom mentioned that she wanted family pictures when her husband was back in the country.  I am so glad she called and got them done.  It is important to have family pictures taken when kids are older and not just when they are toddlers.  And if you don’t go to a professional photographer at least hand your point and shoot over to someone and get one taken.(done with my public service announcement)

Kyle…

Lauren…

Have a wonderful summer and enjoy time together!!!

Brandon met Allison the other day.  He thought she was pretty cute.

Carley came in for a photo session and brought her cousin (who happens to be 5 days older) in with her.   I overheard  Dawson whispering in Carleys ear, “Diaper backward spells repaid. Think about it.”  That silly baby.

Here he is… my last 2010 senior (well I think, unless someone else wants some really cool senior pictures and hasn’t had them taken yet)

Nathan’s girlfriend and her sister came with for the session.  We had fun.  Here is Nathan and Shalea (btw she is one of my 2011 super seniors)…

Thanks for doing such a good job Nathan despite the fact that you didn’t want senior pictures.  Glad your girlfriend and mom talk you into it.  See you Friday night at graduation commencement.

Lane’s parents, aunt and grandparents were in town for the Culver Academy Reunion weekend.  The session was a Christmas gift for the grandparents so this was planned back in November before Lane was even here.  I had a wonderful time with all of you, I hope you enjoyed your time in Culver and that you didn’t get too wet.  I am so glad we got the pictures done just in time before the rain came.  I hope to see you next year.

1st Grand child, can’t you tell….

Drew’s idea….

I have been busy and haven’t had a chance to post this so sorry for the delay, but a couple weeks ago Courtney Surma and Kelsey Minix competed in Florida with their  Indiana Ultimate All-Stars Cheerleading Squad and placed 11th in the World.  I seen their routine and it was AMAZING!!

Not only are they great cheerleaders, they are awesome students too.  I just seen them both today helping with the National Honor Society’s Mini Relay for Life at the school.  Both are so good at working with the kids.

Kelsey:

A friend of mine owned a small candle making business and had a scent called Monkey Farts. (Actually she was my also my very first paid photography session over 6 years ago anyways…)It is one of my all time favorite candle scents and once and awhile when I need someone to smile I just say “Monkey Farts” and they can’t help but put a smile on their face (plus I like saying Monkey Farts.

Well, I have alittle problem, someone else (also a friend) owns the company now and is making the Monkey Fart scent but she calls it Monkey Butt.  Well, Monkey Butt is funny but not as funny as Monkey Farts.  So I am gonna plea to her to change the name back to Monkey Farts.

So go to my facebook page (business one) and leave a comment saying to change the name.

CLICK HERE TO GET TO MY FACEBOOK PAGE (it’s my photography page)

And here is what the candle looks like right now as it is burning sitting on top of my desk smelling my home with the scent of Monkey Butt Farts.

PS  If you want some awesome soy candles call LeAnn at 574-225-2373.  (make sure you ask for the monkey farts scent  because it is the best.  Oh and the grandma’s kitchen one is good too especially for people like me that don’t bake. LOL)

If I get her to change the scent name I will buy someone that commented a Monkey FART candle.  I will pick the winner out of the list of people that help me.  So get on facebook and comment under the post to CHANGE IT BACK TO MONKEY FARTS!
