getting married?

2009-12-03T19:26:00Z

a couple of scheduling/availability notes:

*I am now booking 2011 weddings! At the moment I am only booking June-September, although more dates will open up as we get closer.

*While I am no longer photographing children/family/senior portraits sessions, I am still available for couples sessions. So....if you would like to schedule a couple session of any kind (engagement, bridal, unbridaled, "we just love each other so much and want to have pictures of us plastered everywhere to declare that love..." ) call me!

*Please note that I am now fully booked for 2010. Thank you to ALL of my clients: past, present and future. You guys all are super fantastic, and i am blessed to be a part of your special day!

this post will remain at the top for awhile, please scroll down for new picture-posts

back in....oh......the beginning of october, my friend alice and i went out and did a super fun vintage-y session just for fun. it was the midst of my uber busy season and i felt like i needed to shoot something JUST for me. we went to this AWESOME abandoned house. it was a super fun place to photograph. now i am wanting to go back with a couple or a bride. (if you are either and interested, contact me!) i am just now finally getting some on my blog.....and i have lots to share, and so i am going to spread it out a bit and only post a couple at a time.....since it is my slow {shooting} season right now.....and i want to give all my awesome blog followers something to see when they come here ;)

and uh...i guess "fun" is the adjective of the moment.....

more to come! Thanks to alice for being a super rocking model!

isn't it wild how fast this:

can become this?

i SO loved taking newborn pictures of the adorable Teag. Who, in case you couldn't tell is the son of my friend Dani. Seriously, it is so fun to do pictures with Dani and Jason. They totally "get" me, and are up for anything all the time. Jason was shaking his head and telling Teag "see, I told you they would make you do crazy stuff".

and i know i already posted to black and white version of this next one, but i honestly love it

and.....i know i am no longer booking family portrait sessions. BUT i have decided because I love newborns so much, if you would THIS SORT* of newborn session, please contact me, as I will take a limited number each year. Thanks! (PLEASE NOTE: I am taking NO more sessions in 2010. Also, I only shoot newborns in the first 14 days of life, so you will want to contact me BEFORE your baby is born to be sure to get a spot on my schedule)

*sleeping baby, no fussy outfits, natural light, complete trust in my vision ;)

As the holiday season draws near I am trying to help teach my children that giving is more important than "getting". One way we are doing this is by joining with my dear dear friend Anna and her family as they support a very cool program. Anna lost her baby girl, Sarah, almost 2 years ago due to severe birth defects. To honor Sarah they are supporting the The Pajama Program....... Anna says it all much better than I, so..........

ok, i lied.

yep, i know i said i would keep up with my blog in my bit of "downtime" between weddings. but as some of you know i am STILL catching up on my editing and finishing up the weddings, portraits, and albums I need to so I can have some REAL downtime ;) I did have an amazing trip to Chicago this past weekend and will post pictures from that very soon. I also have pictures from a couple of the last few sessions I have done, and some from a personal shoot I did for fun back in, october was it? that i have been dying to share, but haven't had the chance yet. SO, I will be posting more......just not right now ;)

for now....another from kyle and nicole's wedding that i found while i was finishing up editing their wedding....

I know I promised I would post in my mini "off season"......but I am working like a maniac to get you all your pictures, so blogging is lower on the "must do" list. i promise that when I am all caught up, I will post some more new things...............

also, i am out of the office from Thurs-Monday...I will return phone calls and emails when I return.

jenn and zac

after two weather-related delays, we were finally able to squeeze jenn and zac's engagement pictures in last week. and then......as we were taking the pictures it started to rain fairly hard and we had to cut them short. even though we didn't have great luck with weather, we were still able to get some good shots, and jenn and zac totally rocked. they didn't let the nasty weather dampen their spirits. and i LOVE jenn's style! i know your wedding next year will be fabulous, guys! and thanks for a fun [cold!] afternoon.

i am sure you all recognize this hill....as i am obsessed with it---yep we took these photos around my parent's farm....

isn't jenn's ring GORGEOUS. i was totally drooling over it!

in the blink of an eye.....
