I hope you love your sneak Lora! I’m having a blast working on the rest of the images, I can’t wait to show them to you. :)

A quick reminder with these two photos – beauty is everywhere.  It’s all in how you see the world. :)

Happy Thursday!!

Now onto the images – beautiful light, beautiful location, and a stunning model – what more could a photographer ask for?! :)

 

Make that two beautiful locations….

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday!!

We did!!  As I’m processing this sneak peek, there is thunder rumbling out the window, but the light earlier this morning was fabulous to photograph this beautiful family.  Here is a quick sneak peek. :)

 

Check out Ms. Rileigh and her stunning peepers!  She is a camera natural.

 

 

And she reeallllyyyy loves her mama!

 

Have to have one of mom and dad together in the sneak. :)

Tabitha, I hope that you love the sneak and I can’t wait to get the rest done.  You have a gorgeous family. :)

After a little time at this awesome barn,  these Cards fans changed into some baseball appropriate clothing and we made a quick visit to the baseball field. :)

Finally, we took advantage of the awesome sky and headed to an overgrown field for some nature portraits. :)

Nikki and Brandon – I hope you love your sneak!  Thanks for being awesome sports, and I can’t wait to show you the rest!

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!

Finding the perfect dandelion is serious business!

Can you find Violet??

There she is, showing off those stunning blue eyes!

Henry had to check on Violet. :)

I would like to say that we positioned Lucy by the swing in this photo, but can take no credit.  She did it all on her own!  Puppies need camera love too. :)

Be sure to leave these cuties some love in the comments! :)

Carl and Juanita will be married twenty years tomorrow, and while I obviously didn’t know them twenty years ago when they married, I can’t imagine that they could have loved each other more than they do now.  I think that they are a great example of love getting stronger as time passes.  It was an honor to spend time with them, watch them make each other laugh, and to capture the fun. :)

A big thanks also to Alice from November Rain Photography for assisting with this session!

 

Carl and Juanita – Happy anniversary!!!  Thank you so much for choosing me to document this special event for you.  I have many more images, and I can’t wait to show them to you!

Enjoy the images! :)

What’s this? A gift??

Seriously the best cake ever – if you ask nicely maybe I’ll share the recipe. :D

Checkin’ out the map!

How fun is she?! :) Check out those earrings!

Such an adorable couple :)

Happy Monday!!! :)
