Summer Sneak Peeks

Hi All!

I’ve been pretty silent here recently due to the return to teaching at the end of July, but I haven’t stopped taking photos!  Here is a sneak peek of some sessions from July that I will be blogging in the near future!  I’m also excited to share my first maternity photo shoot with you from this month too.  More to come soon!

 

More posts from Mark and Katie's wedding are coming soon!

You may remember this little lady from summer past.  So fun to welcome her little sister into the photo shoot this year!

I can't believe my cousin's daughter is a senior!  It was an honor to take her senior photos.

I can’t wait to share more of these photo sessions with you soon!  As soon as I get my lesson plans and reading classes together, that is!  🙂

 

 


Sneak Peek: Mark and Katie Get Married!

I don’t normally shoot weddings, but my friends Mark and Katie convinced me to give theirs a shot yesterday and I’m glad I did.  How could I resist a wedding in an apple orchard?!  For a while yesterday morning, it wasn’t looking like the weather would cooperate, but our prayers were answered and the sky cleared just in time for a beautiful wedding and celebration at Wea Creek Orchard in Lafayette, IN.

Here are a few sneak peek photos of their day.  I look forward to sharing more with you in the coming weeks!

Final Post from the Wedding of Collin and Mollie: Pennsylvania Summer Wedding

Hello everyone!  I hope you’ve had a wonderful Christmas season and are excited to see all that is in store for you in 2013.  I thought I’d end the year with one final post of photos from my niece’s wedding back in August.  There were too many great moments to share them all, but here’s a final sampling of the beautiful day.  Click here to see the previous posts from the wedding and here to see their engagement photos.  I hope you enjoy another look at their wedding day.  Have a very happy new year!!!!

Here are all of my nieces and nephews plus he spouses... just missing the four nephews who are still in Australia!

Since it’s my blog, I get to post pictures that are special to me.  🙂  Here are all of my nieces and nephews plus the four spouses… the photo is just missing the four nephews who are still in Australia and then we’d have the whole crew.

Another photographer took outdoor pictures of the guys, but here's one I took so they can be represented here.  :)

Wedding Details: Mollie and Collin, Pennsylvania Wedding

You may recall a sneak peek I posted a few months back from my niece’s wedding or their engagement photos from last fall.  Though it’s been a while since that beautiful August wedding day, I thought I’d take the time to post some more photos of details from day.  Everything came together beautifully, as you can see.  Stay tuned for more pictures involving actual people from the wedding in the coming weeks! 🙂

Her shoes are sitting on top of a wall mounted coat rack that the groom made the bride as a wedding gift.

Great idea for a church without air-conditioning in August!

I took this in my sister’s yard that day. So thankful that the rain went away when we needed it to!


Sneak Peek- Mollie and Collin, Pennsylvania Wedding

I had the honor of photographing my beautiful niece’s wedding to a great guy named Collin on Saturday in New Wilmington, Pennsylvania.

Here is a sneak peek of what is to come when I’m able to share more photos from their joyous celebration.  Enjoy!
