Sometimes the stars just line up, and the leaves turn on cue.  That’s what has happened this year.  We are all aware that it is definitely still 2020, but we have also witnessed the deepest crimson reds, amazing melon oranges, and the prettiest yellows this fall.  I love it second only to a deep snow […]

“It’s a Saint Christopher pendant,” Addie told Ty with a hint of tears in her eyes. It was her wedding gift to him.  Saint Christopher is the patron saint of travelers.  On the back, she had engraved “May we always travel together.”   Ty gave Addie a beautiful pearl bracelet as her wedding gift.  Both gifts […]

Their wedding was filled with laughter, joy, and a few tears – all of them precious.  I did a mini session for Shenna and Kyle last year at the Christmas tree farm, and I just knew this day would happen.  Sometimes you can just tell.  Then, when Shenna messaged me to ask about a wedding, […]

I met them last fall when I photographed their engagement session. Their smiles and happiness told me that they were so in love.  Even though it was freezing cold, Grant didn’t complain, and I knew then that he loved this girl on his arm.  This has been a whirlwind year for them, including the purchase […]

Oh it was beautiful!!  Every part of Hannah and Austin’s wedding at Elkin’s Grove was just breathtaking.  And that included the cool sunny day, which plays such a role in how the day unfolds for an outside wedding. I remember the first time I met Hannah and Austin.  They were on the porch at his […]

Love, Fun, and Laughter, and just a little rain at the beautiful Dugas Park. That sums up Chris and Holly’s wedding. They are madly in love, and oh do they have a good time. It made the crazy rush with family formals and wedding party pics before the rain came in just a little easier, […]

This year has seen huge changes with weddings, and they have not all been bad. While nearly every person alive has had their typical lifestyle heaved into the wind, some pretty cool things have happened too. It’s not bad to have less stress and just more love.  The Uhls’ said “I do” in June, and […]

This session is proof of the power of golden hour – you know – that glowy, magical 60-90 minutes before the sun goes to sleep for the day. I try to schedule as many sessions during golden hour as I can, and I’m so glad we were able to work out this one. I’ve known […]

They had to change their plans once. Then twice. And I’m not sure how many after that.  Zoe and JD were supposed to say “I do” in May, and they actually did, but due to Covid 19, that May wedding had to be private.  They reaffirmed their love and promises before their family and friends […]

He’s about the most unassuming and easy going guy I’ve ever met. You know, the one who doesn’t cause waves, but goes around behind the scenes quietly getting things done. The kind of son any parent would be proud of – and sister too I’m pretty sure. Besides the fact that I couldn’t believe Ethan […]
