Macey and Paige preview

These sweet girls were a breeze to photograph. They quite obviously love each other very much and were happy to smile for the camera. Macey was a little poser. So, so cute. And then there's Paige's ever-present grin. Thanks Kristi and Jeremy for bringing your girls in front of my lens. Enjoy your preview!

2012 Vinton-Shellsburg Senior: Steph L.

I haven't been very good about keeping up on blogging lately. I've missed posting quite a few previews, but I thought I'd give the blog some attention with a senior session. 

Meet Stephanie. 

I have gotten to know Stephanie over the years as a member of our youth group, where my husband is the youth pastor. And I've gotten to know her even better this summer in a girl's Bible study. I pray that Steph's passion for Christ and desire to see others come to know Him would continue to grow as she starts a new journey outside of high school next year. What a great example of someone desiring to run this race called life for Him. 

Thanks for allowing me the privilege of taking your senior photos, Steph! You are truly beautiful.

Enjoy your preview!

Elliot and Maggie

I had the pleasure of taking Elliot and Maggie's photos while they were here visiting their grandmother all the way from Colorado. Thanks so much for entrusting me to take photos of your visiting grandkids, Stephanie! As always, just a small preview with many more to come!

Little Elliot got hungry mid shoot, so we made a peach a photo prop...

Boy, does he love peaches...

But Maggie was not too keen on the idea of her brother getting her sticky and dirty with peach juices. She kept her distance and a close watch on the mess. This photo makes me giggle, with the way Maggie is watching Elliot...

Can you see why she was a bit concerned about a mess...

And just a couple more, a few little smirks to end a fine session...

Ruby's Closet commercial shoot featuring Chloe

Here's yet another commercial shoot where my sweet daughter got to model hair accessories, skirts and dresses. This little girl, unlike her mama, loves to be the center of attention. So whenever I ask her to try on clothes and let me take her photo, she's more than willing.

I LOVE Ruby's Closet. You can find them on facebook here, and shop their beautiful little treasures here. The quality of these hair accessories and the clothing are stellar, and all the details made me swoon. Just lovely. Here's a sampling of some of the photos from this Ruby's Closet shoot. 9 hair accessories, 1 pettiskirt and 2 dress means a lot of photos!! So fun!!
