more from that “rainy day”…

Ok, so yes I am a running to the max here these days it seems!  The weddings have been in full swing this past couple of months and this weekend marks the wedding of Erin and Steve.  The weather is supposed to be perfect and I am sure the gardens are in full bloom.  I had to add a couple more pictures of my kiddos so that the grandparents can see some recent pictures of them! Now back to proofing…

shauna and doug a few more…

I am about to finish up proofs for Shauna and Doug and wanted to share a few more.  I find myself smiling as I am getting them all in order remembering details of the day and that’s exactly why we take photographs… to remember the days!  It was a great day and I am not sure if I will ever have that many motorcycles in the same place at the same time for another wedding so thanks to my assistant we have some great images to share with them.               

rainy day = beautiful memories for me…

Well this mornings light rain caused me to reschedule a session… but of course the sun would then have to shine brightly this afternoon which turned into an afternoon spent with my  3 girls.  I really wanted to get some images of the girls outside before things got busy with school starting and my next two weekends full of wedding travel.  I couldn’t pass up a day like today and I am glad I didn’t!  Today was meant to be as  ALL 3 were great and full of animation!  Here are just a couple that I have looked at and I will add more of the others later.  I look at these and can’t believe my Haley is entering 1st grade this fall… time has flown and she seems to look a lot older than she is in these pictures.  I have truly captured her beauty as I look as these because I can only grin and smile.

miss jessica…

As promised Jessica a few pictures from today!  I hope you enjoy and have a safe trip back to WI.  I’ll look forward to seeing you again sometime, you’re a beautiful girl! ~J

PS.. Thank you for showing us your cartwheels and handstands!

The House…

Well we are into week 10 of construction of our new home and it has been a wonderful experience so far!  The framing is done, the plumbing and wiring are complete and the windows are almost all in. This week saw the completion of central vac (yes, I am VERY excited {thank you Doug}) and the wiring of surround sound on the main floor and outdoor patio area.  The insulating has been started and rock will start once windows are doors are in.  Those late nights viewing HGTV has come in handy with the decision making process!  It will be fun watching it all come together inside and then completing the outside areas in the spring.  We are excited to get the patio done and add a little concrete stamping and acid washing to the mix. Now that there is a little more substance to the house than just the foundation I will have to post a couple of pictures.

Kaidence…

How could I not post pictures of this sweet little girl!  These pictures were done back in June just before it started to get HOT outside.  Jessie, you win for the quickest order ever placed!  Although we finished up back in July… I had to look back at these again and post some of my favorites.  Gotta love the expressions of the little ones… 

Hunter+Calahan=ENERGY

Yep a couple more boys to show off!  The boys have energy and lots of it!  Now I have 3 girls that keep me busy, but I think 2 boys would out do my 3 girls!    One request to get a picture that is “tile” worthy and keep it simple.  We had fun and I hope the boys enjoyed the tic tacs.  

boys and more boys…

Yes, they are adorable boys… Dark hair, long eyelashes and great smiles…and twins on top of that…it’s photo session heaven! I can’t wait for the next round!

    

more kids…

A few from a session a few weeks back… yikes!  I am trying my best to keep up with the business this time of year brings.  It’s fun to see how much the kids have changed in the last year, especially Gracie!  We had fun and the kids were troopers in the heat!  I love this group shot of the kids….the subtle color and texture is “sweet” and I like the look it brings to certain images…Thanks Sheila for the opprotunity and to Kendra for your help!  I hope you find this image jewel worthy and a few close ups to wrap around your wrist.

      

princess jada…

How cute is this precious one!  I have been photographing Jada since she was a tiny little newborn.  Each session we do is more and more fun!  She is a very curious little girl which makes for some great expressions! Here are just a few teasers before proofing is finished.  Enjoy Cindy and Kevin and thanks again!
