A few years ago – Nate asked me if he could shadow on a few weddings. He was interested in photography and wanted some experience!
He’s been coming to weddings with me for the past 2 years now – I think – and people are starting to REQUEST him as their second shooter!!
BECAUSE HE IS THAT GOOD!!

I asked him to take a few family shots for us at our FAVORITE place!!

THIS IS MY FAVORITE SHOT from our whole session!!
I wondered how the horse head mask and the raptor hands would fare in a family photo session – and they did NOT disappoint!!

Our second favorite place!! The property where Jared and I met (kinda) – got engaged – AND got married.
SOMEDAY (when we win the lottery we don’t play) we will build a house here!!

Jared’s mom asked if they could join us for the end of our session – so we got a FAMILY silhouette shot!!
