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! 

janelle + nathan

I had the pleasure of taking Janelle and Nathan's engagement photos. It was a great fall day with sunshine. Sunshine is something we could use a little more of this fall.  I can't wait to take their wedding next summer. I am sure it will be a blast!

adam- st. henry high school

Adam wanted fall photos and that's what he received. I really enjoyed Adam's session. Both his mom and dad were present and really showed their support. It was great getting to know his family even though I already worked with Adam many times.  Adam does videos for weddings so I see him at many of the local weddings.

Thanks Adam! 

amanda + matt- 9.26.09

My favorite photos of the bride and groom!

The shot by the grape vines is amazing. I love how it is back lit by the sun. 
The colors and pose really make everything flow here!

I had to throw in a serious shot. They both look great! 

It was a beautiful fall day.  Everything was perfect and we had a blast photographing their wedding. Matt and Amanda were the perfect bride and groom. I am so happy for them and wish them the best. Thanks guys!

kylee- 18mths

Kylee was an angel.  She sat and smiled, and for any 18mth old that is hard enough! I really had a great time photographing her. We let her do her own thing, and all-in-all, we really captured some great smiles and true personality. 

I always think that a good portrait is a must in every session. 

I think that these hats are amazing and Kylee just made them more cute. Look at that sweet smile.

Fun and Funky!

I love this image too! Kylee looks adorable. So Sweet! 

Thanks!

emily- ft. recovery high school

So, on Wednesday the sun did come out and I had a great time taking my sister-in-law's senior photos. We checked out new places and I had a awesome time bonding with my new little sister. 

Emily is super pretty and this photo just prove that I am not bias. 

 I love the fact that it shows off her cute shoes.... and her french horn. hehe

Cute & Sweet!!

This last image is just FUN. 

You rock, Emily and enjoy your senior year!!! 

Love, Julie

angie + corey e-session

brrrrrr....... Angie and Corey were real troopers. They met me for their engagement when it was a chilly 50 some degrees. However, while my nose ran, we got some great shots. I am super in love with this first image. It shows their pretty eyes. 

You guys have a great sense of humor and know how to make a cool situation a good time.

Thanks Angie and Corey(Scott*)

* Sorry about the name thing too! hehe
