Laney and Liberty

Oh, what fun to be 7! These little girls are inseparable. They already have built a strong friendship and I foresee them being friends for life. They imagine themselves as sisters and try to spend all of their time together.  One of their favorite past-times is singing Taylor Swift songs. I, personally, got to hear them sing one of their favorites, "Why you gotta be so mean." I chimed in for a few phrases myself. They brought smiles to my face with each shot and their free soul and playful attitudes were contagious. They reminded me to live, laugh and love!

Hunter



Hunter had the sweetest smile and great sparkly eyes...well, I added some sparkle to them, but it helps when you have something beautiful to work with in the first place! He did such a wonderful job for being just shy of 2 years old. He was especially interested in the little waterfall he came across. 2 year olds seem to LOVE when they find water. He put his hands in a few times and looked closely for fish. His absolute favorite thing to do during the shoot was to play with the blue balloon I brought along. Children love balloons! I must say I think they are pretty cool myself. I may need to schedule a "balloon" theme shoot sometime in the future. Anyway, Hunter chased the balloon, tossed it, caught it and...watched it blow away. Dad tried to save it, but the wind was just too quick that day.  I loved shooting this darling little boy. Again, I had a really hard time deciding which were my favorites!

Colt

Colt loved fishing! He was so excited to get a hold of the fishing pole and put it into the pond.  He did such a great job for only 2 years old! I especially loved his posing he did for me. He was posing like a senior all on his own! He started to get tired toward the end and decided to take a rest on the tree...too cute!

Max

Max was FULL of personality! He made my job so much fun. Max loves his tricycle and his lamb, so we decided to take a few shots with them. We originally planned to do some shots in overalls, but the frigid weather that day did not make it easy on us. Max held nothing back, which I absolutely loved. His outgoing personality gave me too many favorites to choose from!

Vickie & Dustin

When Vickie first contacted me about taking her wedding pictures, I was thrilled! Vickie and I went to high school together and spent time together in volleyball and dance. I hadn't spoken to Vickie in years and was excited to catch up with an old friend. She was the same girl I had remembered...kind, outgoing, and full of life!

Vickie and Dustin were married at St John's Church in El Dorado, KS on Saturday, April 30, 2011. Her dress was incredibly beautiful and she wore it well! When Dustin and Vickie saw each other for the first time on their wedding day, I could feel the pure, simple happiness that they shared.  There were many hugs, smiles, and happy tears. The ceremony went extremely smooth and the wedding party did a great job,  including Vickie and Dustin's adorable son, Evan.

Thank you to Vickie and Dustin for inviting me to be part of your wedding day!
