I have a lot of favorite people in my life - I am so blessed!

Here is a snapshot of some of my most favorite people in the world taken last summer...


We are so thankful to live close to John's parents. What a blessing it has been to have them so close! We learn from them every day and appreciate them so much. They have taught us so much through their godly living - how to love unconditionally and accept everyone with love, kindness and generosity... to give mercy and forgiveness... to always be there for each other... they are perfect examples of serving the Lord and we are thankful!

Here are a couple shots of my boys with Grandma that are old but I love love love them...

Jeremiah getting spoiled at the pool...


Joshua getting spoiled at Christmas...


And me getting spoiled just to be in her presence...


We love you, Grandma, and are praying for you.

Just a few shots from my session with this cutie patootie...





Sweetest little bebe...

Found some rusty old screws to photograph while the kids enjoyed a unseasonably warm afternoon outside.







I didn't shoot much as we *needed* to take a bike ride up the street and have races around the yard. Thankful for surprises like beautiful, warm days in the middle of winter. The very next day was freezing again with biting winds that could knock the breath out of you. Looking forward to more sunshine this week!

Just look at the gorgeous families I am blessed to photograph...



Aren't I so lucky to have this much fun?




Most adorable little dolls ever...








*love*



This beauty keeps you hopping...

(and I loved it!)

While the girls played, we snagged one of mom & dad...


Until certain someones got jealous?


So we went back to chasing the little ladies...


I really did mean chase...






The sun was blazing strong that morning, so we kept to the shade. Little Miss was quite photogenic...








Thank you, H Family! It was wonderful getting to know your sweet little family!
xoxo

The first look quickly turned into this...










Lindsey, you are such a beautiful Bride...


Can you see the storm brewing? It was looming over us to hurry up with the pictures!



But I couldn't resist just a few more of the two of them out there...




Dapper Groom...


One of the last shots before the wind picked up so much we had to call it quits...


No worries, she was well taken care of!


A&L, what a joyous celebration! I am so thrilled for you both as you begin this journey together. Much love to you both! xoxo

Jeremiah gives a presentation each week and we decided to record some on video for his far away grandma to see them! Here is one he did about her:


And here is another one he wanted to show her. He did do this for his presentation one week but we didn't record it. So here he is getting ready for bed with his jammies on to record this for Halmoni...


Love this kid!

I was blessed to meet Rachel through her sister's wedding the year before. Now friends and family gathered together to celebrate the love between Rachel and Rick.

When I met up with them for their engagement session (HERE), I knew they were meant for each other. Rachel is so sweet and kind and Rick surrounds her with his love, engulfing her in safety and comfort. And they simply adore each other. Sweet bliss...

I love walking into the wedding day and seeing the dress that was so carefully chosen by my beautiful brides...


Surrounded by the people most important to her, Rachel prepared for her special day...


Another stunning bride...













The details...

Welborn Floral Co. always does a fabulous job! The reception was especially stunning! I loved all the amazing touches...








Love the first dance as husband and wife...
