bubp girls

The girls came over for there annual Christmas photos and I had a blast trying to bring out their inner divas. Alexis, Ava, and Audra, Thank you for the great session! Merry Christmas!

laurie + justin- to be

Laurie and Justin braved the chilly weather for their engagement session, however we had fun. We had lots of laughs and I captured some great images in the meantime! Thanks guys and I cant wait for your wedding in the spring.

sarah + kyle- to be

Sarah and Kyle were up for anything and all smiles. We started out trying to capture some of the leaves out at west bank and then moved into town for an urban look. Thanks for the easy Saturday and I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving.

Brent is Adam's cousin. I always thought that Brent has had this great personality. He is very laid-back. Even though the session was one of my shortest, I really enjoyed it.

Thanks!

lindsay + mike

Lindsay and Mike had a beautiful day for and engagement pictures and we made the most of it. First, we did their *blue*  outfit in-studio and down town. Then we did the *orange* outfit by the leaves and trees and railroad tracks.  Enjoy!

buddy- one funny pup

I came across this one when looking to see what I got from Buddy's Christmas session. I thought it was too funny. Plus he just looks like he knew he shouldn't be chewing on the ribbon. 

lars & lucy- it's a puppy thing

Happy Holidays! Yep. It's that time of year again. 

Lars and Lucy are my good friend Amy's puppies. After a LOT of craziness we created this masterpiece. 

Thanks for the fun afternoon! We'll have to do it again sometime soon and maybe in the future.... with kiddos instead! :)

julie + joe & family

Well, it's not easy working with a 2 and 1 year old but we did it. It was actually pretty easy. The little ones put up with a lot of direction and craziness. All-in-all, there were no red screaming faces and thats a major plus! 

Thanks for the great session, Julie

The cute and cozy family. 

I *heart* little guys in argyle sweaters! It just doesn't get any more cute. 

A cute, maybe slightly cheesy, but still  cute smile. 

The tots together.....

dan + emma

It was so very hard to pick my favorites from their session. Dan and Emma were just too good of kids. They were well behaved and listened well too. I know that Dan was getting antsy at the end but he held in there and the result; beautiful photos. These photos are something to cherish years and years from now. 

A classic photo. I think the color shows off their wonderful eyes! 

I know that this was definitely Dan's favorite part of the session. After throwing leaves nothing else was just quite as fun. 

Emma rocked this photo! I just love it. 

My little man Dan. He looks like he's up to something here. :)

Molly and family, 

Soon the proofs will be in and there are so many more great photos. I can't wait for you. 

Thanks Julie.. 

ryan- ft. recovery high school

Ryan is very much a go-with-the-flow kinda guy and I  like that. He was up for anything and getting good at turning the smiles on and off. I had a great time photographing Ryan. I hope that you enjoy your photos! 

Talk to you soon!

jill- coldwater high school

Welcome to Jill. She is my little sister's bff. We started out taking photos in her formal outfit  shown below. I really wanted to show off the touches of red so I did some spot coloring. I always felt that spot coloring is only good when done right on great photo. Sometimes its over done, however I think this photo of Jill really worked. 

I love this pose. It always so fun. 

Another beautiful serious pose. I am really digging the composition here. 

Jill and the beach. 

Jill and Sarah rocked out the RR tracks. 

Thanks Jill. I will be in touch. 

Tara's Family

On Saturday I met Tara's family at their home in Minster to take all kinds of photos. I started out doing senior photos of her brother Guy. He didn't really want to have his picture taken but I think he really enjoyed all the attention. We also did some engagement photos for her sister Megan and fiance. They rocked it out with their OSU jerseys. Last but not least, we took family photos which includes Tara's little baby boy. Saturday was a chilly day, but Taras' family was great to work with and treated me like family. 

Thanks guys

katie + jason

Yep, it's another engagement session! Katie and Jason met me at the beautiful Stillwater Reserve for photos. We tried many new poses, which Jason suffered though, however they turned out great. I am super excited about this session. 

Just capturing the colors....... a traditional photo. 

I love this photo. Kaites' eyes are captivating. 

This is a newer pose for me and I think they rocked it!

 
I really love the leaves in this shot.  Katie wanted fall and I think we nailed it! 

I wanted to include this shot in the post because it focuses in on Jason. There are so many times we forget about the guys. 

Thanks Jason and Katie! 

beth + kevin

Kevin and Beth were easy to photograph. It's kinda like working with family because Kevin was a second brother to me growing up. It is weird to think that he's all grown up and getting married. Even though he  is only two years younger than me, it just seems like he's too young to get married. Anyways, I really enjoyed their session and definitely give them kudos for putting up with the cold and chilly temperature. Thanks!
