Preg Session: Megann + Andrew + Baby

I hope everyone had a beautiful Holiday. My DH and I hosted the Christmas Dinner in our new house and it was great to sit back and relax afterwards. Our Holiday movie to watch was Batman- The Dark Knight. My DH couldn't wait to watch it any longer! I made him wait till Christmas to open the movie. lol. I gotta say, it is an awesome movie. Anyways, back to work... meet Megann and Andrew + Baby

Aren't they a beautiful couple? They are expecting their first at the end of Jan. So, stay tuned, because you'll get to see the first photos of their new bundle of Joy right here. I know what they are having but you'll have to come back and see for yourself. I love how he is resting his chin and nestling into his lovely wife... can we all say "Awhh" together?


My FAV


Enjoy your Sneak Peek!

NEWBORN: Meet Mister L. - 7 days old

He was such a cutie pie. We had to give him his nookie a few times and then take it out right before I took the shot! I can tell his parents (first time parents) are so enraptured by him - as they should be. Thank you for letting me capture these moments and memories! Enjoy your Sneak Peek!

Children's Session: Mister P - 6 yrs old & Mister J - 6 months old

I had the pleasure of photographing 2 handsome siblings. I love the pic of Mister P and Mister J together. I love the way little J is looking at his older brother. Enjoy your Sneak Peek!


It worked out that when I arrived Mister J was still sleeping- so I snuck in some sleeping shots and I have to say they are my Favs.

H.S. Senior and BFF Session: Courtney and Samantha

This was sooo much fun for me and I have to thank you girls for braving the weather. It was probably 45' degrees and WINDY and here they are modeling for me in short sleeves! Aren't they stunning? They were naturals in front of the camera but I think it also helps to have your BFF there with you to help make you laugh and relax. These girls have been friends since 1st grade, right? Don't let their beauty fool you though. These girls are smart and hold jobs. One will be majoring in Dental Hygiene, yeah!,( b/c it's my FT job) and the other will major in Chemistry + Chemical Engineering. Enjoy your Sneak Peek! More to come... I'm in the middle of {3} jobs right now and trying to catch up!

Engagement Session: Audrie + Kevin

Audrie and I go way back to 6th grade middle school. Our 10th Reunion is this year already! Kevin is such a nice guy and, I know, guys don't really want to hear that! I wish them all the best.



Something a little fun and different. Audrie had been searching for this car for awhile now and it was only fitting that it be the Star of the Show for one picture. lol!

Children's + Urban Family Session

It was a beautiful morning and so we started out in town where I found an old green garage door and the building was boarded up. My friend was like we are going here? To the photographer- an abandoned building makes for an incrediable backdrop. We than headed over to a beautiful park with stone walls and a covered bridge. The green wall will be posted later... here's just (2) to hold you over.

I love to get a shot or two of Mom and Dad. When was the last time you had a picture of just the two of you?
