Praise the Lord for a beautiful evening!!!!  Madi & Boston had to reschedule at least 4 times to get this session in on Tuesday.  BUT with a little patience, we got the most beautiful evening!!  The sun had the most beautiful golden hue to it!

I had so much fun getting to know these two!!  And loved that they took me to the golf course in Antwerp where Boston works and where Madi visits often 🙂  And though I only spent a little over an hour with them, its apparent how madly in love they are with each other!  Boston, the quiet one of the pair (at least around me), opened up and showed so much love and happiness throughout the session!  And Madis smile stole the show!!!!

 I cannot wait to be a part of their August wedding! ❤

6-10-17; the day I gained my 4th sister ❤

Everything about the day was pure perfection.  We are blessed to have Bri as part of the family and are so happy that Thomas has found himself such a suitable partner!

Some wisdom from Ephesians 4:2; Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love…. Remember to forgive; 1 Peter 4:8;  Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

To Thomas, Ephesians 5:25; Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

To Bri, Ephesians 5:22-23;  Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.  For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.

The world will tell you a great many things… BUT Remember to seek the Lord through everything.  The struggles, the trials, the joys and happiness.  He is there through it all.  Trust in Him and keep Him at the center or your marriage always!!!  ❤

Lifestyle newborn sessions… my new obsession!!!!!  An in home family session with your new little one!  Nothing is better than authentic memories and beautiful images!!!

I was so happy when Renee a fellow photographer from Woodburn asked if I would take her newborn pictures!  I was even more excited when she got on board with my new lifestyle adventure and allowed me to come to her house!!!  I LOVED being there to capture their new addition and the beginning of new adventures for them!!!  May the Lord be with you and your family always Renee!!!!

It’s hard to believe that I met Steve over 8 years ago in some little bar/concert hall down in Columbus.  Little did I know I would one day be marrying one of his band mates!!!!

Fast forward to Steve’s wedding… The day started off rainy and wet!  The sun looked as though it would never return.  But just as we started pictures, the clouds started to lighten and the sun appeared!!!!  We were so fortunate to get absolutely stunning weather, gorgeous sun and a perfect evening!!!!

So happy that I was able to spend the day with Missy and Steve!!  I wish you both the best of luck and happiness!!

The day was full of laughter and tears.  Hugs, smiles, prayers and blessings!!!  I haven’t teared up that many times during a wedding since my own!  🙂

The day started off fast pace, running around with last minute touch ups trying to fit in as many photos as we could before the ceremony started…. It was my first time ever doing a First Look between Father and Daughter and it was absolutely beautiful.  The love and closeness both Holden and Gabby have with their parents is something I can only hope for with my own children.  The love and respect is genuine.  The thought of leaving their parents behind terrifying, yet exciting…. Another first was having the families do prayer circles together.  And it was amazing as well!

The gifts given before, were out of a movie… Holden, putting every man to shame with his over the top thoughtfulness left not a dry eye in the room.  After each received their gift, you could see the look of anticipation and “let’s do this!” grow!!

I had expected Holden to cry when he saw Gabby (sorry Holden), but he held it together, looking ever so handsome awaiting his beautiful bride.  Her elegant walk leading her up to a new husband, a new last name and the beginning of a new family.

The pictures in between were nothing short of memorable either.  A quick red light, me running out with change of location, ended up being a miracle!  Sprinkles turned to down pours, with tornado warnings close by… But through it all we were blessed to get some beautiful photos of the happy couple!

Holden and Gabby I want to thank you for having me be a part of your special day!!!  I cannot wait to see how your relationship grows and matures!  Tim and I love you both and hope to have you guys over soon for a bon fire 🙂

I had so much fun last Saturday with this amazing couple!!!  It has been wonderful to watch them fall in love, grow and prepare for their wedding day!!!  I absolutely adore Holden’s family and cannot wait to see him branch off with Gabby and start their life together as husband and wife!!

May the Lord always be in your hearts.  Strive to follow His commands, be quick to ask for forgiveness, be quick to forgive.

Do not follow the ways of this world, find out what a husband is to be in the eyes of the Lord and what a wife is to be….

Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.  For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church.                                                                                                                                                                 – Ephesians 5:22-23

Three things will last forever–faith, hope, and love–and the greatest of these is love.      – 1 Corinthians 13:13

I can’t wait to be a part of your day!!!!

xoxo
