Lincoln's Two!!


Pure joy!



Two year old kids crack me up! If they don't like something, they're sure to express their feelings! Lincoln expressed his feelings about pictures. He definitely wanted to play with his friend Tracy not her camera!

Katie and Jeff Epix





















Katie and Jeff are getting married next July. We met for the first time earlier this year and right from the start they knew photography was very important to them. They booked me before their ceremony and reception venues! Which I think is so awesome! Katie planned her engagement session perfect! She had her makeup "test run" done the same day as our shoot. Nancy from Brideface did an amazing job! Katie also had her hair styled that morning as well. I tell my brides all the time, this makes the biggest difference in your results. For one, professional hair and makeup photographs better, two you feel good about yourself and when you feel good you look good! Katie and Jeff are beautiful people to start with, but adding the hair, makeup and right wardrobe choices brings the photos to another level!

Jennifer and Jim's Wedding








I love the back of this dress!!!






Jennifer and Jim were so comfortable in front of the camera. I joked with them during the day that they must have practiced since our engagement session. Though the engagement photos were great, I had to coach them more during that shoot. By the time the wedding day came around I felt like I had professional models! Great job to the happy newly weds! I appreciate the hard work! I also want to say they might have had the sweetest parents I've ever met! Sometimes I feel like I say the same things about every couple, but it's true, they were wonderful to work with, so in love and excited about their photography. I'm truly blessed to have such wonderful clients!

Kristen and Ian's Wedding!!
























Kristen and Ian were married in Fairborn Ohio, near WPAFB. What a beautiful day and couple! We had tons of time for portraits that day. Kristen suggested to go else where after taking a few at her parents house. I was super excited to hear this since it was not in our original plan. I see this way, if we have the time, we might as well. We decided to use a nearby nursery and it turned out awesome!

Raffi and Mina















look at that little tongue!



I was so excited to hear from this family again. I hadn't seen Raffi in a little over a year and this was the first time I met his little sister Mina too! Their such a wonderful family and I always enjoy photographing them. Just a few of my favorites!

Kathleen and Matt's Wedding







 









What a wonderful young couple! I felt so connected to them. Matt and I realized, not only did we attend the same high school, but we actually grew up just a few house away from each other! (What a small world!) Kathleen and I both have certain events that happened in our lives just before our weddings that made me feel so close to her also. Everything that day was beautiful and I wish them a lifetime of happiness together!

The Billboard



So, some people may already know, I did photography for The Beach Water Park in Mason last summer. This was my first big job with advertisement and I was excited for the challenge. This season they decide to use some of my images. This particular image in on a billboard located on 71 North and South near the Smith/Edward exit. Thank you to my good friend Jim Talkington for finding it! Please excuse the shot as I took it through my dirty car window!
