Married! Ashley & Alex

Wow, how bad am I at updating this blog? Pretty bad. I'm going to get better - I promise.

I have about 3 weddings to post - here's the first one.

I photographed Ashley & Alex's wedding about a month ago. Cheryl was my wonderful second shooter. We had a lot of fun together and were even mistaken for twins.

Ashley & Alex are a really sweet couple with a wild wedding party! The day was quite fun! I've got a lot of favorites from the day..

Here are some great detail shots that Cheryl got prior to the ceremony -







Love this one of grandma-









Normally I do not ask the girls to do the "jump" picture because of their heels and all.. but this was their idea. Turned out cute.

Engaged! Bunny and Art

Bunny and Art are a really sweet couple who are getting married next month! We did their engagement session on a very sunny day at Kiener Plaza. It was a lot of fun taking their pictures and getting to know them. They are so in love and so happy to be engaged :)













See you guys soon!

Happy Fourth!

My husband, son, dog, and I enjoyed a great Fourth of July with many of our close friends at a BBQ in Tilles Park. Mike and his friends have been gathering at the same spot for the last 10 years. This was my fourth year attending, and Jack's second. Jack had an awesome time. Last year he was just hanging out in his stroller, sleeping, the whole time. This year, he couldn't sit still.

The little area where we all hang out -

Buddha, our 3 year old pug, being cute -



Jack kept himself very busy.

He interrupted the volleyball game and then decided to just stand back and watch.. one day he'll be big enough to participate..





He pushed his stroller around..



Took long walks by himself..



Hung out with his best friend..



And every now and then he'd take a rest..



Family pic..



Playing with daddy's hat..





Last fourth of july -



And now -




We skipped out on fireworks because Jack was exhausted from the BBQ. And.. he's scared of them.

Hope everyone had a great day!
