Austin and Bethany are the perfect match. She’s the calm to his world; well she is literally his world.  These two have been together since high school. They have weathered a few storms, and certainly celebrated lots of successes.  Their common backgrounds and work ethics make them incredibly compatible, and the love they share is […]

Samantha and Ryan. They share two beautiful children, and now they will share forever.  The celebration of this couple was one that warmed my heart to the core.  The amount of work that goes into pulling off a wedding is not for the faint of heart.  And this one was beautiful and sweet all at […]

Rebecca and Trey’s laughter is what I will always remember from this session. Almost from the first shutter click, their eyes were constantly lighting up, and their happiness literally overflowed and wrapped us all in warmth.  It made my heart know that Becca has found her true soulmate and the one who completes her.  What […]

How about this beautiful couple??  Katelyn and Joseph are about to tie the knot, and I mean soon…. next month. Last Saturday was a bit windy and the cold stung too, but we made it happen because we needed to capture this time in their story before the next chapter. And I know I don’t […]

Concord is beautiful any day of the year.  But it was stunning the day Abby married Landon. Who doesn’t love a Christmas wedding??  We are already into the feels, and when you add wedded bliss on top of that, it’s a recipe for smiles and joy for sure.  I’ve known Abby and Landon both for […]

Oh it was COLD last week when we decided to photograph an engagement session in the snow. The actual snow was beautiful, and took our breath.  In another very real sense, the WIND also took our breath.  It cut through our gloves like at knife and froze crystals inside our lungs.  I really didn’t know […]

Engagement sessions always fire me up, even when the weather pulls out every trick in the book to stop our session. The only thing left would have been a bit of snow.  Otherwise, last Wednesday showed up with the whole bag of precipitation.  And dumped it out all day long.  But Leslie said the show […]

Last Saturday was the perfect fall day;  the air was a bit crisp, we had a quick passing shower (well really a downpour, but it was quick), and color shimmered everywhere in the trees. It was the day I met my new friends, Anthony and Lauren.  And this is why I love what I do […]

In one day, last Saturday, I was blessed to photograph a couple I’d never met before, and also a couple I’ve known since they are running around the middle school. Alexis and Jordan were both Allen County kiddos, and they are perfect for each other.  I say this a lot, but it feels like just […]

Sierra and Noah lived within a few miles of each other for years and had no clue the other existed. But that small problem has now been remedied, and the future Mr. and Mrs. Shirley are busy planning a wedding these days.  It all goes to show that we simply have no clue what or […]
