Thank you for stopping by!
Lifestyle, our passion...that is how we describe what we do.  It's the day to day, remember when, wish I could have been there type of moments.  It's real life captured forever...not only in a photograph, but in your hearts, your minds, your souls.  We truly are thankful for this role God has blessed us with.  We look forward to sharing these moments, along with our journey, in this crazy place called life.

Please use the tabs above to help navigate your way through the blog.  Current clients can find their images under the websites tab.  Over time, I will be sharing moments that inspire us to do what we do.  Feel free to grab some coffee and stay awhile...

I had such a fun time getting to know Jon and Ashley during their engagement session.  It is evident that they are the kind of couple who would do anything for you...in a heartbeat.  We had some good laughs and enjoyed sharing life with one another.  We can't wait to celebrate with them next summer...it's going to be a beautiful day! ;)  Hugs to you both...

I'm a bit embarrassed at how far behind I am on my blogging.  It has been non-stop shooting around here.  The few minutes we have had at the computer are consumed with editing, emailing and ordering.  I have so many sessions along with Rob & Kati's amazing wedding to share with you soon.  Keep checking back...

As for Danny and Sabrina, if you follow our blog at all then you have already seen their exquisite wedding.  We did their session 2 days before their wedding which didn't give me much time to edit and share beforehand.  Thankfully, they have been enjoying everything from the wedding to this session for quite some time.  Now, it's your turn.

I just love these two to pieces.  We had such a great time getting to know each other better.  I guess you could say that the camera liked them...loved so many of these.  Again, I love what we do!  I am so thankful that we are able to do something we love while giving these memories to others in return.  Such a blessing...enjoy!

One of the many perks of being a photographer is not only capturing moments for those you have had the pleasure of developing a relationship with, but also for those that you have known for many years.  Chandra happens to be one of the latter.  We have known her family for about 8 years now and we just love them to pieces.

You will soon see that both Nick and Chandra are absolutely adorable together.  We couldn't be happier for the two of them and know that they have many amazing years ahead of them.  We are so excited to capture their wedding day...it will be perfect. ;) Love and hugs to you both!
 



A big thanks to Nick and his family for letting us use so much of the "family" property for their session.  I guess you could say that Nick's family is in the farming business...made their session perfect!

Loved the pictures--Melody, especially loved the little tiny baby first on the blog. So sweet. The wedding and senior pictures are good too. Where is the barn they stand by?
