Congratulations Frank and Lauren

Lauren and Frank's wedding was seriously one of the cutest weddings ever :) They are such a cute couple, and so happy together! I loved seeing their smiles throughout the day.

Lauren is actually completing a family of four: Kristen, Evan, and Andrew are Frank's kids. I am guessing this shot is a pretty accurate glimpse into family life :)

Frank and Lauren were going to be spending their first night at a little bed and breakfast called Port D'Hiver. From the outside it just looks like a few old buildings.. but once you go through the gate, it is beautiful! There are some little courtyards with fountains, trees, a footbridge, etc. So we headed over there before the reception for some pictures.

Then we went over to the beach...

I love this shot!!

Then over to a nearby park.

This is another favorite!

All the girls had their hair done at Essentials Spa - I highly recommend them; they do beautiful work.

Their reception was at Djon's Steak and Lobster house - it was a unique venue for the party.

Frank's youngest son turned out to be quite a dancer! I asked Frank if he got it from him, and he said no. But, I believe the pictures tell quite a different story. I'll let you make the call :)

And here's their slideshow!

Congratulations! I hope you love the photos!

Chris and Sarah are Engaged!

Beautiful couple, beautiful weather, beautiful location.. does it get any better than this??

I was so excited to shoot Chris and Sarah's engagement session, for a lot of reasons. They are a precious couple who love the Lord, for one. They are getting married next week at my church, Covenant Presbyterian, and I can't wait for their wedding! I know it will be a fun and sweet day.

I hope you love the pictures as much as I do!

Are they great jumpers or what?!

Congratulations Ein and Becki!

When I first met Becki last year, I knew her wedding was going to be really pretty, as she had chosen an "enchanted garden theme. And she did not disappoint! All of her bouqets and boutionneres were handmade and purchased on Etsy.com, and her centerpieces were made of paper flowers - so creative! (and green!)
Not only was the decor unique, but Ein and Becki are as well - in a good way! They are a fun and outgoing couple, and everyone had a great time at their wedding.
I hope you love the photos, and the slideshow at the end...

Their cake was gorgeous!

This is one of my favorites...

I love the movement in this next one.

Congratulations you two!

Jeff, Jonathan, and Kristen: A Mother's Day Gift

As a mom, I can imagine no better gift than a photograph. The best gift I got this year was the card that Chris brought me home from preschool, complete with a pink construction paper heart and blue crayon scribbling - and a photo that his teacher had taken. So I loved it when I was asked by Kristen to photograph her and her brothers for a Mother's Day gift for their Mom.

Kristen used to babysit Chris for me, but then she went to New York to finish college. She just graduated, so she brought her cap and gown for a few shots. And her brother Johnathan just graduated from highschool, and is entering the military.

This picture makes me laugh - and terrifies me at the same time!

Thanks so much for hanging out with me :) I hope your mom loves the photos!
