i am so proud of these two and they reflect God in their relationship... i cannot wait to watch them grow together in the years to come... so until december, here's their engaggment shoot... you should know it was HORRIBLE trying to decide which ones to show... they are just that good looking...

okay... so i am a HORRIBLE blogger... i admit it... but don't hate me... in addition to changing jobs, photoshoots, etc... i also took two weeks to go visit family... thus my disappearence on here...but i am back and have lots to share... so bare with me while i play catch up... here's a teaser from the oh so fabulous gretchen's shoot...

lucy's baby belly ...

the first time i met lucy i liked her right away ... she is one of the sweetest people you will ever met... she is also a soldier who has fought for our freedom overseas...i was thrilled to shoot her baby belly shoot last week... here she is with her precious little boy and little gianna in her tummy...
(i should confess here the only way little isaiah would touch her belly is because we had goldfish in lucy's hands - whatever it takes right?)

lucy- thank you so much for allowing me to capture this moment in your life...

but more importantly... thank you for helping us stay a free nation - i am proud to know you.

omi's ring...

from what i was told my grandmother bought this ring for herself... appartently her husband my step-grandfather thought it was too much money... i smile when i hear how she got it... and it is now one of my most treasured possessions from her and while on the bachelor party shoot i used an old barn to capture it...
