Lincoln - '15

Mon, 26 Jan 2015 21:19:51 GMT

My husband and I have been fortunate to work with Lincoln in youth group for several years. He's such a great kid, and we had a great time during his senior session. We started bright and early at 8 am, with lots of mist and fog! I was up to my knees in mud by the time we got done, but it made for some great memories and some cool shots! Good luck, Lincoln!

Jarret - '15

Mon, 26 Jan 2015 21:15:15 GMT

The afternoon I spent with Jarret was my first senior session with an athlete. I had so many ideas bouncing around my head, and this young man was so patient and polite. I know spending part of your weekend posing for photos isn't at the top of most teenage with lists, but Jarret was a pleasure to work with. Plus we got some great shots! Best of luck as a college athlete, Mr. Cronin!

Kizer Family

I've had the privilege of working with sweet Hanah in Bible study for about a year now, and this fall I got the opportunity to hang out with her family during a great family session! We got tons of great shots of the whole crew, but I love this one of Hanah and Zach. These blonde beauties are so close, and you can totally see it in this shot. Thanks for a great afternoon Kizer crew!

Sybert Family

This beautiful family was such a pleasure to hang out with on a beautiful fall day. And all those baby blues?! Goodness! The boys were such troopers, and by the end of the session Makayla was giving me tips on locations and poses! I think we have a photographer in the making!

A huge thank you to Kelly for allowing me to spend a morning with her sweet family.

It was a chilly morning when we ventured out to capture these photos, but some quality time with one of my favorite families was well worth it. I can't believe how much the kids have grown up since our photo session last fall! A big thanks to the Griffiths for spending a morning with me - it did my heart good!

Chase '15

It's been a pleasure to watch Chase grow up over the past several years as a member of our youth group. He's always been such a talented musician, and it's been a joy to watch him continue to improve his craft! We had a great time taking his senior pictures, even though the wind was playing havoc with that "musician hair!" A big thanks to Chase and his family for allowing me to capture this special time!

When some of your closest friends call and ask for a photo session with their motorcycles, you just know you're in for a good time. I had a blast snapping these photos of my favorite biker crew between torrential downpours! Outdoor photography is always interesting, that's for sure!

Pearce Family

Nothing boosts a small business operator's self-esteem like a referral! I'm so glad the Pearce family decided to contact me after being referred by a friend. We had a great time on a steamy Sunday afternoon! These kids just couldn't be any cuter!

Schuelke Family

Some of my favorite experiences in photography have involved the opportunity to take photos of my friends' children. When I received a call a couple of months ago from a childhood friend about the possibility of doing photos of her family, I jumped at the chance. Sweet little Miles wasn't full of smiles, but when you have eyes like that you don't have to smile! We had a wonderful evening and I look forward to photographing these sweet boys as they grow!
