I had the opportunity to photograph a fun family ~ the younger kiddos were cooperative and the older were obliging... so, we managed to get some "real deal smiles"... I love that! Maybe it was all the kissing... kids kissing mom, mom kissing kids... You can imagine the giggles and eye rolling going on. But then we even had kids kissing the dog -- not even my idea, but theirs! Anyway, we all had a good time and got it done. Thank you Sue and kiddos!!

Michael and Meredith-- congrats!!!
Erik and I had the privilege of photographing this very special couple. I LOVED every minute of capturing the love between them! During the ceremony he kept looking at her in the sweetest most tender way -- it was blissful to capture! After the ceremony we all headed over to the Tower Theater for the reception. All the dancing made for some really fun photographs (the bride's uncle even pulled me out on the dance floor- Erik caught it -- maybe I'll post that later!) :)

Congrats Michael and Meredith! We were honored to be a part of your big day. You are so fun and obviously so in love. May God bless your marriage in his safety, comfort and joy for the rest of your lives!

Let's celebrate this little one! What a joy she is. From what I have seen from the 3 occasions I have had to photograph this little one is that she never cries, has a happy disposition, is full of joy and it is truly catching (her Mom and Dad may disagree that she never cries, but I have yet to see it)! I had the pleasure of photographing her baptism at St. Francis. She had to amaze the priest, because she only smiled during the water baptism and then fell asleep in her mother's arms after her big debut. What a JOY... see for yourself.

I had a great time at Megan's house for a portrait party... the kids were all in great moods and we got some fabulous images. I only had to bribe a handful of them with my arsenal of candy! I think they all had a good time playing with me. I know I did! Take a peek at a few of my favorites...
