Brad and Sarah Engagement = FUN!

We had such a great time photographing Sarah and Brad this past weekend from the beginning to the end. While pushing Brad to his limits Sarah worked her magic. Brad was a great sport, literally, from us pushing him around to making him tackle Sarah (which, I think was a big no-no in his very gentle mind) he obliged. We can see why Sarah fell for this gentleman. It was great to get to know you both and can't wait for our next shoot.

Buster and the Girls

 

 

 

I was so excited for my friend Lisa to have her third baby, for someone else to join the 3 club...any mother or father for that matter, will tell you it is just different when you are out-numbered. A new kind of "joy" is all I will say. I have come to realize I really like Lisa for more than just the fact our children get along, she is just as funny as me and she gets my jokes. A good start for a solid foundation for a solid friendship. Lisa, if you read this post I hope I have made you laugh and I hope I have expressed the joy your family brings you though these photos. Thank you for inviting me into your home.

The Crum Family

 

I had such a good time photographing the Crum family last Saturday morning, it gave me a chance to get to know David a little...I have already had the pleasure of getting to know Angela through a few playdates thanks to our daughters. We have been trying to schedule this shoot for a while but due to all of the wonderful rain and crazy schedules that families try to entertain we didn't get around to it until now. The plan was to do the shoot before Katherine (aka "daughter") lost her first tooth- missed it by a day, if you can believe it! Angela, your family is fun and have a nice easy relaxed spirit and I hope I captured that.

Christine and Matt

My little sister and her husband made the trip down from Detroit to Myrtle Beach and we were lucky enough to visit them for a weekend of fun and love. If I were to speak her language, I would say there was a really good feeling and presence in the room. It makes me sad that a whole year had gone by since seeing her last but we remain close. It was REALLY cool to see the transformation she and her husband have taken. Healthy, happy and moving forward. Keep going, Chris. I love you.

I love you Mama. I love that you have been there for my children for every birthday even though we live 700 miles away. I love that you have been here for one part of the Christmas holiday or another even when it's not "easy". Our children adore you. I adore you. You make our lives happy. Simply happy. Thank you. You are still and will always be my (terrible fake French accent) my Mama!

Chad and Ashley

Natalie and I had such a good time shooting Ashley and Chad. It's always fun to hear someones "love story" and get to know the couples we work with. All I can say is CITY-COUNTRY and it is a beautiful mix. It was a great shoot because they seemed to find a lot of comfort in each other...no awkward moments just genuine connections. We are looking forward to our next shoot with you Ashley, you have such a gentleness about you, it makes it easy to find a natural smile and meaningful expression.

Matt and Dana Album- New Style, Pacific

Thought we could share an album we recently put together for one our couples to give you an idea of what one could expect when receiving an album. This is a traditional album that comes with our packages. Take a peek.
