Gladson Gals


So here is another "sneak-peak"! I'm feeling like I can finally (maybe) catch up this week! =) These girls are beautiful...and not only on the outside...their manners were just impeccable! I had a lot of fun with this session, and I'm pretty sure the girls did too! My next several appointments are for girls...so I'm looking forward to some really great sessions! =)

the KELLY family! =)


This session couldn't have gone smoother...I photographed the Kelly Family a couple of years ago, so they were already comfortable with me, and expecting stupid jokes =) This session I had the pleasure of meeting "Grandpa" which was great because he's a really funny guy! At one point he had me looking for my keys (he had them in his pocket, and yes, I'm notorious for leaving them in the door!) I'm sure at times they wish I'd do less talking and more picture taking, but this family is just fun to be around! Besides, I took a ton of pictures as usual, I just talked A LOT while I was taking them =) This pic is actually the VERY last picture I took...I held the camera over my head being the goofball that I am, and it actually ended up being a great pic! =) Sorry it took me SO long to post this on the blog...your pics will be in soon!

McQueary Fam


The McQueary's were so much fun to work with! We started in the studio, and decided to head outside. I used to leave Fairland to use the RR tracks, but thought I'd see what we'd get using the tracks that run right behind the studio. Needless to say, I probably don't need to leave Fairland to get the RR shots anymore. It was a short walk and the lighting was perfect! This is officially a "sneak-peak"=) and I'm looking forward to delivering the rest of the proofs =)

The Schwedler's


With a new baby boy in tow, it was time for some new family pictures! =) There's no better way to commemorate a new addition to the family than a portrait...as fast as little ones become "big kids" it's nice to show how the family changes and grows! I love the Schwedler Fam, and was so glad to get to spend a Saturday morning with ALL of them!

McClusky


As much as I love the option of being in the studio...I still really enjoy taking outdoor pictures. They opted to combine indoor and outdoor pictures, so they ended up with a great set of both! Here is a pic of the McClusky Clan =)

The Dunn Kids =)


Here is a picture from the Dunn family session. This was actually another combo session that also included the extended family from out of state, so I'll probably post a few more...but I thought I'd feature the kids on the blog for now. =) I love this sibling pic! She definitely loves her big brother!

Lahrman Family


I feel very repetitive in saying how much I "love" sessions...but it really is no lie! =) I went to high school with both Jamie and Josh...so it was fun getting to catch up with them a bit, and meeting their adorable little girl! She has a lot of energy and really loved my M&M stash too! This session actually was a combo...we did family portraits, as well as maternity pics. I chose this pic because it was kind of both =) I am looking forward to meeting the new little sister within the next few weeks! =)

Baby Haehl


Here is a picture from my most recent maternity session! I really wish I would have had these taken, (x4) =) because maternity sessions are really fun and I think they are such a neat way to remember pregnancy. I am really looking forward to meeting Baby Haehl in the near future at the newborn session!!!....because if you know me at all you know I LOVE to photograph babies!!

Dustin and Jen


These engagement pics were taken a week before their wedding, so they are now officially Husband and Wife! =) Congratulations Dustin and Jen!

Catching Up


I love being able to showcase sessions on the blog =) Unfortunately, I do not have internet at the studio yet, but eventually, this blog will also serve as a "sneak peak" for all of my clients. Some of these have already been delivered..but I still wanted to show what I've been up to for the last couple of weeks! Enjoy!

This beautiful couple has been married for....62 years!!! They were so much fun to have in the studio...we laughed a lot! I'm sure they've shared a lot of laughter over the years =)

Celeste


I had so much fun working with Celeste...she has such a sweet little personality, and as you can see a beautiful smile! I love connecting with kids...and she was truly such a little sweetheart during the entire session!

Bradley


Meet Bradley! Thanks to a very patient Mommy, I was able take both indoor and outdoor pictures of him. This picture was actually taken in his own backyard! =) As much as I love the traditional black and white baby photos, I'm a huge fan of trying something a little different, and this baby ended up with the best of both kinds of pics. I wish I had time to post every photo (there isn't a bad one!) Looking forward to photographing Bradley as he grows. What a precious baby boy!

Aaron


It's been a busy few weeks for me! Sessions are really starting to fill up, and I'm anticipating a lot of Senior clients this year! =) I actually took Aaron's Senior pictures...and after graduating last year he decided to enlist in the US Navy. These pictures were taken to commemorate his graduation from basic. Way to go Aaron! Thank-you for serving our country, we're so proud of you!
