Squeezing in one last senior session

Here are a couple of my favs from a resent, very last minute senior session!

Yeah Nicole

So one of my favorite wedding photographers is Jasmine Star of Jasmine Star Photography. She is one of the top wedding photographers in the nation right now and I find her (along with many others), VERY inspirational! She is lives in LA and shoots incredible weddings and beautiful engagements all over the country with her very sweet husband JD. I follow her blog often and she periodically has all kinds of different contests. A couple weeks ago she had a contest to win a yummy gourmet gift basket of Italian chocolates thanks to Vita Dulce...All you had to do was nominate someone who you thought was deserving of some encouragement in the form of this scrumptious treat. So I thought for about a second and nominated one of our youth from church, Nicole. I shared her story and out of 306 nominations....dun da DA...She WON!!! (If you click on Jasmine Star's link above and scroll down until you get to Vita Dulce Basket Give Away you can read about Nicole and the comments others have left her). Here are a few pics of her I grabbed this past Sunday after church. Way to go Nicole for your selflessness and giving heart. YOU have inspired many people and I know God will continue to bless you!

My Little Man

Wow, it's been a little while since I've posted...sorry to those of you who frequently check. It's been a bit busy. We were out of town for a weekend and then the internet wasn't working....ANYWAY, here are a couple more pics of THE cutest little boy EVER....my son of course! These were taken with his Easter pics as well, I just didn't get the chance to post them until now. Hope you enjoy them and have a GREAT Friday!

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE

Christ Has Risen!!! I love Easter and the whole week that leads up to it known as Holy week! There are many reasons I love this holiday and time of year. The number one is the whole reason why we celebrate Easter; that Jesus died for us to pay our debt AND then He rose three days later conquering death! The grace of God is soooo sweet!
Another reason I LOVE springtime is the freshness of new life! New flowers, babies being born and fun new Easter outfits. So here are a few of my precious son Graydon's Easter pictures! Thanks for the awesome Easter suit Grandma!!! I hope everyone has a great and happy Easter!!!

Beautiful Baby Boy

This was my second newborn shoot this weekend. Don't you just love spring...warmer weather, wild flowers, and new life! I had the pleasure of photographing this precious fellow and his new parents who openly boasted that he was the most beautiful baby ever! As you can see from his photos I think their boasting is justified! Thank you again for inviting me to your home to photograph such a lovely family! Enjoy your "sneak peek"!

Beautiful Girls

I had the pleasure of photographing TWO newborns and their families this weekend. The first was a sweet baby girl and her beautiful older sister. I know my son is only 13 months but you forget too quickly how tiny these precious angels are when they first arrive! Beautiful beautiful family! This sweet sweet baby made me want another. Thank you for letting me come and capture a little love in a photo for you guys!

I love Senior shoots...

...especially when they have ideas of what they want to do to express who they are. This shoot was so fun and I loved the idea she had for our last set of shots! This beautiful senior holds a special place in my heart and I was thrilled to do her pictures for her.
Hannah, I love how your photos capture your inner beauty and grace, your artistic side and even your goofy side. There is a freedom that others notice in you when you are just being YOU. Thank you for allowing me to capture some of that. Hope you enjoy your little "sneak peek"!
