Anna + Carlos!

What's this you say?  Am I open for business again?!  Not quite. ;-) Things are still temporarily(?) shut down for now, but I just couldn't tell my good friend no when she asked me to shoot her wedding!  Even if I am extremely rusty and made several mistakes... eek!

I met this amazing woman when she was working as an intern with me while going to school to be a Civil Engineer.  Let me tell you, this girl can do anything she sets her mind to, and was such a huge help to have as an intern!  I've seen her climb dump trucks full of asphalt to check temperatures, survey in a snow storm, and push a wheelbarrow full of concrete!  Yes, this girl.  The same beautiful woman you see below!

As I got to know Anna better, we found out that her life is basically exactly like mine when I was her age to a T!  It's like she has been born to live out my life again, only make better choices.  hehe ;-)  So glad I met this girl, and got to meet Carlos too.  He's such a sweet and humble guy, and I'm so glad these two kids found each other!  They go so well together.  Anna & Carlos, here is your wedding picture preview!  The rest should be done soon!  Enjoy. ;-)

Marley + Julia's Mountain Top Wedding!!

Hello all!!

I cannot belive I have not blogged since March! For those of you who didn't notice, the last few posts consisted of way too many oogly google photos of my little guy Eli. ;) What can I say, I'm partial to his squishy little face. I've been hiding out and taking a break for a while, and thanks to Julia & Marley I had the chance to get out and shoot a wedding!  Not just any wedding, a mountain top wedding at White Rock mountain....and the view from the top... breathtaking.  Even more breathtaking was observing just how much these two kids love each other.  Julia, Marley, you two are perfect for each other.  Congratulations I'm so happy for you two!

Well, despite a few random showers of rain, and sleet, we managed to have the wedding precipitation free!  Yay!! And let me tell you, despite the bitterly cold temps, rain, and sleet, these folks didn't complain one time.  I've never seen such compassionate, hard working and loving friends and family.  It was so great meeting everyone and I hope to see you all again!  Here's your picture preview!

W.O.W. Girl's Night Out

So I finally picked up my camera again after taking a long break with my new baby boy Eli.  He's Kept me busy the last few months and I think new photo jobs may still be limited for a while  But we will see!

It was really nice getting out and having some great fellowship with the women of St. James last Friday night.  A great way to transition back into my photography. I absolutely love being around these ladies who are always so encouraging and uplifting.  This event was hosted by the W.O.W. (women of worship) ministry at St.James. I have to say they did an excellent job planning . Everything looked, and tasted great! It was so nice meeting all of the new faces I saw, and I hope everyone enjoys their photos!  You can see them all if you click this link.

Tim + Andrea

This may be a long post!  So if you like to see lots of pictures, you'll like this one.  It's just so hard to narrow down pictures for a blog preview when it's a wedding!  Too many cute things happening I think.  And I can say, this is my very first Harley Davidson Themed Wedding I've ever shot, and Nathan and I enjoyed every minute of it! 

It was a very unique, fun, and laid back atmosphere (which for a photographer is very nice!) And I can't forget to mention the food which was made by two very special women who did professional catering for years and it showed! We had a great time, and thank Tim and Andrea for inviting us to share this special time with them and their friends and family. Hope you enjoy your picture preview and we'll be in touch when the entire gallery is up!
