Oooh La La...

Melanie & Kyle made a trip to KC for an engagement session...

I've known Mel for years, but hadn't met Kyle before this,

but I immediately saw the chemistry between them.

Kyle adores Mel...but can we blame him?

They had tons of great images and it was hard for me to narrow them down to just a few...

But this one below is one of my favorites...

not much is sweeter than the look of 2 people in love!

Thanks for making a trip to KC guys...I can't wait to capture your big day!!

Meet Mr. Handsome

I can't tell you how much I LOVE the curls on Drew. How can you not? And look at those eyes...

Won't he make quite the business man?

Drew was full of smiles for the camera...

I just loved how excited he got...oh, how he'd move those arms and laugh!!

Time for some updates...

I just realized I never posted any of these photos from my photo shoot with the Kendrick family. It's not because I don't like them...I love this family, and thought they look pretty good all cleaned up :)

Here's one of my favorites!!

Ten little fingers, ten tiny toes...

the sweetest of smiles...and a cute little nose!

I couldn't just pick a few favorites after meeting lil Bradi. I immediately fell in

love with this sweet baby.

I love how the sun is shining in on Bradi in this picture.

Look at all that hair... Bradi with her amazing Mom & Dad...congratulations Beth & Eric!

Bradi wasn't camera shy at all- she was only 6 days old when we took these pictures

and she showed us her sweet lil eyes.

I love how she has her leg up in this picture...she just looks so relaxed.
And she started getting sick of our picture taking and decided to take a big yawn..I love when babies yawn!!

I don't love baby tears, but I still thought this was a cute picture of Bradi.

And then here is a body-parts collage...look at those tiny fingers and toes.

Patiently Awaiting...

the arrival of "Baby T". Until then, here is an album I made of Meg & Rob's Maternity Session...

My lil' nephew...

should be quite photogenic by the time he enters this world for us to meet. My sister, Megan and I have been visiting my studio frequently once she found out she was expecting. I wanted to share a few pictures with you...I'll have more soon once Rob & Meg both come in for a session.

This first one is Megan at 19 weeks. We tried hard to get her positioned so we could see that little bump..

And then this one below is when Meg was 33 weeks along...the bump has definitely grown a bit!

Seniors 2010...Book your appointment today!!

Mr. & Mrs...

Here are some more pictures from The Adams Wedding.

I love this picture of Derek as he is watching Kendra walk down the aisle..

And I can't say that I blame him at all. She looked amazing!And this picture below might be one of my favorites- you can see the love!!

Congrats Derek & Kendra. I had a great time working with you on your special day!

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Adams

What a beautiful wedding yesterday---I had to post one picture.
Many more to come later...

Oh BOY!

Talk about some handsome lil boys!!

The Quinn family met with me in Monroe City for some family portraits

and boy did they look good!

Daddy's boys...

You can tell these two are best buds...

Look at that smile...it's so true that smiles are contagious!

AND...look at those eyes!!

Here comes trouble!!

Thanks Jaymee & Joe- you have a beautiful family
and I had a great time working with you!

Timmy's 1st Communion

Timmy came over and we snapped a few shots of him all dressed up...

I love this silhouette of Timmy and how you can see the outline of the Rosary.

And here were some Thank you cards that I created for him...

A day at the park...

A beautiful day at Loose Park + An adorable blonde haired girl =

Isn't she too cute for words?

A Growing family...

Krystal and her family came into the studio for a family photo session. The lil' guy, Aidan was full of smiles. Here are some of the many photos that I loved...

I definitely think Aidan is Grandpa's boy...

And a group shot with all eyes looking at me, big smiles, and all eyes open..
(this can be a challenge with such a big group)

And then another...



Great job guys!!! You have a very loving and beautiful family and
I really enjoyed capturing all those smiles...
and I also believe a CONGRATS is in order as well
as I've heard that Aidan is going to be a big brother!
