Stuart & Kiernan

I have the honor of photographing Stu & Kiernan's wedding in December so we went out tonight for their engagement session. Even though it was still 90 degree at 7pm, we ventured out to some of my favorite spots in town.

I just took a quick look and here are some of my favorites so far.

Thanks for the fun session guys, I can't wait for your wedding!

Braleigh

I had a session today with 5 week old Braleigh! Now our session got off on a little rocky start, not because of Braleigh but I got lost trying to get to her! I think her daddy thought I was crazy because apparently no one had ever gotten lost going to their house before!!!

Anyways, Braleigh is such a little cutie. I had to take a look when I got home and get some of her up here for mom & dad & for all you blog followers!

Andrew

I just got finished proofing a few images from my session from tonight. This session was a first for me and Andrew, my first male senior session & his first time having to spend 2 hours with someone pointing a camera at him while telling him where to stand, to smile, to not smile, to move a few steps this way or that way!

Having his senior pictures taken wasn't Andrew's idea but he had an "Okay time".

Thanks for being a great sport tonight Andrew here are a few of my favorites so far!

Meet Addie & her family!

She was a ball of energy for our session on Friday! Her mom and dad wanted me to take her two year pictures & a few family pictures but Addie had other plans. She loved to run in the opposite direction we wanted her to go and well she was your typical two year old - BUSY! Addie wasn't too interested in having her picture taken but she was more than willing to help me use my "click"!! She was a lot of fun and dispite what you think mom, I enjoyed every minute of our busy session!!

Jessica & Bob

This wedding had quite the story! The bride and groom had to move their wedding up a few months because Bob was being shipped to Italy. The day of the wedding it was a beautiful sunny day right up until the family pictures. A huge storm hit and the power went out during family pictures and remained out for a hour and a half. Jessica was such a trooper. The rain never seemed to phase her. The power came back on just before the ceremony. They had a beautiful wedding and Jessica was a beautiful bride! Bob was shipped to Italy 4 days after they were married.

I wish them all the best in getting their papers approved so Jessica can join her new husband soon.

Family Reunion

This past weekend, I had a family reunion at the camp ground that my family has been going to for as long as I can remember. There were 51 of us; 3 generations of family! We had a great day playing a variety of games - sack races and three legged races to name a few. We also had a boys vs girls shoe race!! You had to put your shoes in the pile and then race to find yours, some of the players cheated a little but I think the girls still came out victorious!!! After our games we all enjoyed what we like to call a "garbage supper" otherwise known as a potluck. A huge rain storm past through and some of the kids had a great time playing in the puddles.
Anyways, I wanted to share a few shots from the reunion here on the blog!

Taylor & Michelle

I had the great honor to go and second shoot a wedding with my very talented friend Christy Doyea in Grandforks last weekend. It rained all day so we were unable to go outside for pictures but these two are so gorgeous we didn't need to go outside to capture great pictures of them.

Here are a few of my favorites from their wedding.
