Stacy and Tyke's Wedding

You will not find 2 people more in love....feeling like they have their WHOLE lives ahead of them than 2 people getting married. Stacy and Tyke had a glow about them that was.....awesome and lovely and all was right with the world. They are incredible people who love the Lord and each other with such gusto...it was great to get to meet them and photograph their special day. I loved meeting the whole family and such GREAT friends. What a weekend for me and I was just photographing...I can only imagine how special it was for Stacy and Tyke. Thank you for being in love and sharing that love with the rest of us. Your both really lovely people and I'm blessed to have gotten to meet you guys. Congrats on the beginning of the rest of your lives together! Cheers!

Stacy and Tyke are hilarious! I had such a fun time with them...in the freezing, snowy cold. They are amazing people!

Thank you Stacy and Tyke for a TERRIFIC wedding!!!

Snyder Family photos!

I had the best time freezing in 17 degree weather to capture these moments for my dear friend Rebecca and her family. This is Rebecca who lives on the "Ranch". My favorite place to go in my area. It's sooo quiet and peaceful there. On this day...it was freezing and windy, but we stuck to it and got the shots...then got inside for hot choco!!! wonderful time!!! :) Enjoy Snyder family, I had a great time...thank you!!!

Sneak Peek

So, as you know, a BIG wedding post will be coming soon because my new friends JUST got married and I was there to capture it on film. Today, we went on a small outing to the streets of the 'boat' to do a post wedding/engagement/bride and groom shoot! I cannot TELL you just how much I like this couple. Thanks Stacy and Tyke for getting married in our tiny town. I am blessed to have met you and catch a small glimpse of your big/lovely lives! :)

Sneak Peek for the B's!!

I got to photograph good friends the other day in between my wedding responsibilities. It's sooo great when you get to photograph friends...an ease is present. Makes shooting 10x's more fun. We had a great deal of fun as you will see by further sneak peeks for the B family.

Thanks Debbie and Allen for letting me photograph you the other day. I had a great time in the freezing cold & almost dark conditions.... hahahahaha

Let the festivities begin!

I am shooting a wedding. Not just any wedding...Stacy and Tyke's wedding. They are the most adorable, fun, loving couple I have met in a long time. They are southern and I like it!!! Here is a small sneak peek into the start of their wedding week!!!

The Sabbath

So, let me just say that it has been maybe.....oh.....a million years since I took a sabbath. Who knows what a Sabbath is? Raise your hands high.....Anyone? Well, I am reading Tim Kellers book 'The Kings Cross' and chapter 4 is all about a Sabbath. Growing up the Sabbath was a day that I had to do homework. Jesus says it's a day of rest. Homework is NOT rest. Sundays anymore are a day to work while the hubs is home and I don't have to be the go-to person RIGHT when the kids get up from nap. It's a work day for me. At least that is what it has become. Well, not anymore! This gal is TAKING a Sabbath! :) That's just what I did on Sunday. I didn't work, even though I had a shoot to edit. I just sat, laid down with my daughter during nap time, played a memory game with her, drank hot chocolate and just....sat. I was tempted SOO many times to work while the hubs watched Sunday football, but...alas...I did not! Thank you, Thank you very much :) So, back to editing today :) Here is a little bit of what I did :)
