I had a last minute opening and Brooke was lucky enough to grab it!
It was NOT supposed to rain – but the rain was closing in quick!
The weather DID make for perfect moody photos though!!
We ALMOST made it without getting rained on!!
BROOKE!! Thank you so much for spending a quick – wet evening with me! Next year – we should do the creek again!!
Casey and I scheduled and then rescheduled and then rescheduled again – BUT – we managed to get together on a BEAUTIFUL October evening!
I love that you can SEE the joy and even hear the laughter in those last few shots!
A different take on the silhouette!!!
I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!!
Casey!! I loved spending the evening with you guys! I can’t WAIT to see you next time!!
I’ve been taking photos of Carie and her family for the past 5 years – I think!!
It’s been a WHILE since I last saw them – but we were able to figure out a time in October!!
Aren’t they just ADORABLE!?
CARIE!!! It was SO good to see you and your family!! Hopefully we each other sooner rather than later next time!
Jess’s kids go to school with my kids! I took their photos last fall and was SO excited that she wanted to schedule a session again this fall!
I LOVE THOSE SILHOUETTE SHOTS!!
Jess – I LOVED spending the evening with you guys!! WHERE WILL WE GO NEXT YEAR!?
I look forward to my session with Rachel and her family every year!!
SQUISHY FACES are the BEST faces!!
Rachel asked if we could get some shots of JUST her!! Because at some point it clicks – and you become comfortable and HAPPY with who you ARE!!!
I LOVE THAT ONE!!
RACHEL!! THANK YOU so much for making the trip to Mansfield!! I cannot WAIT for our session this summer!!!
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!!
CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS KID!? It seems like overnight he has changed!! Where is the giant-headed baby!?
AND THIS GUY!? They have both grown into such AMAZING people – I can’t even believe how fast it’s gone!!
THESE ARE AMAZING!!
THE BEST BROTHERS!!
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!!
HORSE HEAD MASK FOR THE WIN AGAIN!!
NATE – I love these photos SO VERY MUCH!!! THANK YOU!!!
I met Amanda and her husband last fall when I took their maternity photos!!
While I’ve seen photos of little *J* online – this was my first time meeting her in person!
Isn’t she so sweet!?
That sweet little smile!!
I LOVE THAT ONE!!
Amanda!! Thank you so much for spending little of your afternoon with me! I hope to see you again next year!!
I LOVE taking pictures with Kristi and her family!!
Especially her WHOLE family!!!
We had NO idea how bad the mosquitos would be that night – THEY WERE AWFUL!!
Which is the reason for some of the sad faces!!
I LOVE THAT ONE!!!
Kristi & Antonella – thank you SO MUCH for spending the evening with me!! Hopefully next time we won’t be eaten alive with bugs!!
I met Amber last fall! She used some of those photos to announce her pregnancy with this little guy!!
HELLO BABY GUY!!
OH MY GOODNESS!!
I ADORE THAT SHOT!!
THE SWEETEST!!
We are READY for the playground!!
THESE are my favorite photos to take of you and your family!!
I LOVE THAT SHOT!!
PERFECTION!!
Those two shots are my FAVORITE from our session!! They’re all in the frame – but no one is looking at me.
They’re just enjoying LIFE together. It’s EXACTLY what I hope to capture and give you!!
AMBER!! I loved spending the morning with you! I can’t WAIT to see you next year!!
I am SO happy that I get to pray with people. Dave & Courtney really wanted children. After our first session – she asked me if I would pray for them. I put them on the list!!
I was SO VERY HAPPY when she messaged me saying – GUESS WHAT!?
AND LOOK AT THAT SQUISH!!
She is VERY serious!!
She’s also a very HAPPY girl!
THOSE CHEEKS!!
SO HAPPY!!!
DAVE & COURTNEY!! I have loved getting to know you better over the past few years!
I can’t WAIT to see you and your girl again!!
