I brought my raptor hands to our session because I just KNEW that this guy would love them as much as I do!!

I VERY much look forward to our session each year!!!

Adrianne truly understands the importance of letting kids be kids while I photograph them!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!! This horse head did NOT disappoint!!!

These photos make me laugh SO HARD!!!

CAN YOU HEAR HIS LAUGH!?

PERFECTION!!!

OH MY HEART!!!

Such a good big brother!!

Adrianne – like I said – I LOVE spending an hour in the life of you and your kiddos each fall!!

I can’t believe we’ve been doing this for FIVE years!!

 

 

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!

Lindsey messaged me about photos with her husband and their dog – IF their dog would cooperate!!

We met on a BEAUTIFUL October morning!!

COOPERATION!!

Those might be my favorite shots!!

OH WAIT!! I LOVE THOSE ONES TOO!

My niece Rowyn was visiting that weekend and she was SO excited to show me her new camera! I asked my brother if she would be able to come with me to my session in the morning!

Lindsey was kind enough to say – YES!! So I brought here along!!

Those were her shots with her camera!

I’ll show you the ones she took with my second camera!!

Rowyn – I had such a great time with you! I am so happy it worked out to bring you along!

Lindsey – thank you again SO MUCH for allowing her to tag along!

I hope to see you again next year!!

INTRODUCING THE MARRIED COUPLE!!

Their first dance as husband and wife!!

The song they danced to – DON’T BLINK! I knew where her TARDIS notebook was – so I ran and grabbed it – it was a PERFECT moment!

A tiny break in the rain called for photos of the bride & groom!!

Jessica & Ben – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to spend the day with you!!

I hope married life is EVERYTHING you hoped for and more!!!

 

 

 

MR. & MRS. BEN FELTEN!!

Rain ALL day on your wedding day can’t stop the happiness you feel!! LOOK AT THEIR FACES!!

Those shots are some of my favorite shots of the day – especially that last one – even though it’s out of focus!

These are the moment I love to give you – the ones you didn’t even realize were being photographed!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

There was a small break in the rain – for just a few minutes!

GORGEOUS!!

I love a good moody black & white!!

I’ve got ONE more blog post to show you!!

 

 

 

I met Jessica at the ENDLESS MOUNTAINS BRIDAL EXPO in early 2020!!

They were originally getting married in October of 2020 but decided to postpone since 2020 was a dumpster fire!!

I could take pictures of Jessica ALL DAY!!!

SO HAPPY!!!

Isn’t she GORGEOUS!?

 

It rained their ENTIRE wedding day – THANKFULLY The Inn On Quarry Glen is BEAUTIFUL!!

SHE WROTE HER VOWS IN A TARDIS NOTEBOOK!? She’s my favorite!!

A first look moment with her dad!!

It did NOT disappoint!

He is SO ready to say I DO!!

HUSBAND & WIFE!!

Stay tuned for the rest of their wedding day!!

 

 

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!!!
