Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to take a minute and say Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.... :)

And a quick reminder: I am taking off from email starting this afternoon until Monday to spend time with my family and get a few things done. I will be back bright and early on Monday morning if you can wait until then.... if not, feel free to call me!

Love you all!

Two of my biggest blessings....

The Alston Family

Now, here was a fun family... especially this little girl. She was a total firecracker... and I love that! She did photos on her terms, even though I think it may have driven her mom a little crazy. That's what most girls do, I think. But she sure is pretty!

Thank you Alston's for being wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! I am so glad that you found me. You are such a beautiful family - and I cannot wait to meet the newest member! Hope you enjoy the pics and have a great Thanksgiving - you are so blessed!

The Norwood Family

This family was so incredibly sweet - I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them. And oh my goodness, check out the mug on this little boy... couldnt you just eat him up?!!

Ok, tell me this doesnt look like fun... bet you are looking out the window to see if there are any leaves left for you to play in... :) Norwood family, thank you so much for letting me spend a little bit of an afternoon with you. I had such a good time and you are so amazing. Hope you enjoy the pics!

Gini & Matt - the wedding

I am so late on blogging this wedding, but cant rush greatness, I guess... ha ha... This was my first outdoor wedding and it did not disappoint - it was cold, but so worth it! Words are just not enough for this wedding so I will just let the pictures speak for themselves... except to say - oh my goodness, how gorgeous was the light for the "first look" - arent they absolutely dreamy. And for something different this time... Ill start with the details!

As always, click on the pics for a better view.

Thank you, Matt & Gini, for being so memorable... I wish you all the best!

The Shedd Family

Meet the Shedd family. They were the winners of the Hero Canvas contest I did in October. Arent they completely beautiful?!! And oh my goodness, they were so sweet to boot... I dont know how I get so lucky.

And I found out that they are both pilots! How cool is that - not one, but two.... and look at that big man's face? Couldnt you eat him up?!! Thank you Shedd family for being amazing and letting me spend just a little slice of a wonderful day with you.

The Minichino Family

I just love this family... no really I do! Amanda is one of my best friends - we were college roommates and she was in my wedding... and her son, Austin, is in my daughter's class and is one of her best friends... Dont you love that?! We had a gorgeous day for pictures so we took full advantage... we visited Riverwalk and some of the beautiful displays they had downtown.

Well, this has been one busy year... and I could not be more thankful! I have had some of the most amazing, beautiful clients. I am pretty much booked for the rest of the year and will be taking a much needed break in December to actually see my family - I think theyve missed me.... :)

Jessica

I dont know if Ive said it enough, but I absolutely LOVE senior girl photo shoots? They are pretty much the equivalent of a model shoot but without all the attitude. Jessica was a dream to photograph. She is gorgeous and complely open to whatever crazy idea I threw out there. I will admittedly say that I have so many favorites from this shoot that I didnt do a good job of editing them down so sit back and relax and get ready for a total picture overload.

That last shot leaves me weak in the knees I love it so much... :) If you havent already, you have to click on these individually to view them larger... you must!

Thank you Jessica for being one of my favorite subjects to shoot. You really should be a model.... you are completely beautiful and I had so much fun.... :)
