Erin has such a cute and bubbly personality! I had so much fun photographing her senior photos! She smiled and laughed alot and that made my job so easy! She had fun and creative clothes and even came with some posing ideas she wanted so we could make her senior session really personal and memorable to her! Here are some of my favorites, I had a hard time choosing only a few (isn’t that a big problem of mine?) but here they are! Enjoy!

That is right, she climbed right into the water! Look, big smiles right off the bat! How cute is she?

I love this shot, so relaxed and the lighting is beautiful, but more important I just love that smile!

Erin has a sassy side as well! What a beauty!

There’s a little more of that attitude!

I LOVE the lighting and the shadows, this boardwalk makes for great photos! Theres that cute smile again!

This tree has the perfect shape for sitting in! Erin hopped right up there and we got this creative shot!

I love urban feel of downtown! I love how relaxed Erin is and all those stickers on that old lamppost!

Sparkly water! Yay! Also look Erin’s hair flowing in the wind! Love it!

Erin, I told you I was too excited not to blog these right away!! I am busy editing and I’ll email you when they are in your online viewing gallery! I hope you all enjoyed the photos! I really have a blast at my job!  Feel free to leave comments, it always makes my day!

Even though I am down in North Carolina this week doesn’t mean I’m not working. I have had two senior sessions this week as well as a pet session coming up! I had a ton of fun at this shoot because Kacie has a great fashion sense on top of having a creative flare so she was up for anything I suggested which of course makes a fun day for me! I had a hard time only choosing a few so there are alot of images in this post! Feel free to leave comments. Hopefully you have as much fun viewing as I did shooting!

I love hair and that sassy look she’s giving me! Her personality shines right on through!

I love how relaxed she is! She really got along well with my camera!

I LOVE the urban feel with the old train yard and the graffiti! 

We literally hit the streets of downtown and got some shots of her in this kicky dress!

She is beautiful, my job is too easy!

I seriously love formal wear in urban settings, so mod!

She found these old stairs across a creek and she had to have some photos, and yes she did wade through the cold water to get there!

I am having a love affair with the dress! Possibly my favorite shot of the day!

Please leave comments, I’d love to hear what you think!

For Christmas my hubby got me a Nikon D80!!! It is my dream camera and I couldn’t be happier! Needless to say I took tons ad tons of photos (beyond the usual) of Christmas with my family. I chose just a few to share with you. I wanted to share my family life! I hope you enjoy and I hope your Christmas was wonderful as well! I am down in North Carolina visiting my husband’s family now so if you email me I might not respond right away but please do leave comments!

This is our big yellow bucket that we use to transport the gifts. Apparently my nephew thought this WAS his gift!

My three favorite kids in the whole world! Now they sit nicely for me, even if they do make such silly faces!

My lovely make up artist! Never too busy for a little girl time!

All of us girls got Celtic rings for our Scottish heritage! I love my scottish heritage, beautiful!

The lovely Christmas dinner table my momma set for our huge group!

I love Christmas because it is the one day a year my whole family gets together just to play all day! It really is the best!

I have more blogging to do but this is all for now!

So being a photographer I really love to take photographs, even just because. The other day I took some photos just because I missed my camera, and there are some cute kids in my life! Anyway my point is, this little rascal just makes me smile and this was just for fun!

I hope you got as much joy out of this as I did

More family Christmas photos! These two are adorable (and adorable together!).  They were dressed in their Christmas best and gave me tons of smiles! Needless to say they made my job easy Here are just a couple of my favorites! Enjoy!

Here Karen and Jacob are checking out their Christmas gingerbread house!

A tiny angelpie! She sat like a little princess!

An even tinier angelpie! He is always smiling!

Thanks for the fun and the laughs! It was great! I have some senior sessions coming up pretty quickly here so stay tuned for more blogs!

So today my hubby and I got our first Christmas taken today for our very first family Christmas cards! It was really exciting and fun! My dad from Toledo Photography took them for us. It was sooo cold outside and we didn’t want our coats on so the photos would look nice and my dad did a great job and he did it quickly! We haven’t decided which one we are sending out in Christmas cards yet but I decided to post my favorites! Here they are!

This is my husband Ryan and I! Now you know what he looks like! He’s handsome isn’t he!

He always makes me smile!

I think this is my favorite! Notice the snow on the ground!

I love being married! After seven years of dating I can finally be his Mrs.! I just thought I’d share a little of my personal life with you all! I hope your holidays will be spent with your loved ones as well!

I got to photograph the Courtney family for their Christmas cards today! Even though it is snowing outside that does not mean I can’t get some great shots inside! Bekka, Mike and Ella are such a cute family (although I might be partial). Bekka is my sister! Now that my little niece is three she has gotten great at sitting still and posing for me! Although I’m sure she knows, if my camera is out, smiling gets her back to playing much faster! Here are just a couple of my favorites! Enjoy!

They are cheery!

So snuggly! Ella loves that Santa doll!

I told you she loves that Santa doll. How cute!

Ella loves her princess tree! It is tiny just like her and has Disney princess ornmanents all over it! So cute!

A close up of happy little Gabriella next to her tree.

A seriously cheery little one! They made my job so easy!

Merry Christmas Courtney family! Can’t wait to see the cards, you guys look great! I have more family sessions coming up so be sure to check back often!

I got the opportunity to photograph baby Joseph today! He is so adorable and I feel honored that I got to spend some quality time with him today, not many can say that! He is sooo cute! Ok! These photos are extra special because he has a set of grandparents that live in Peru and as a Christmas gifts Jeff and Maggy, his folks, wanted to send some to his new grandparents since they don’t get to see him too often. He really is a happy baby and such a joy to work with, and he made the best faces!!! Here are just a couple of my favorites, I have tons of favorites of course, but I can’t post a million! Hope you enjoy! Feel free to comment!

I love his sweet angel face, he also looks a little curious. I’m sure he was trying to guess what I was holding up!

This is Joseph’s first Christmas and we had to get a shot of him in his little outfit! Santa will bring him tons of goodies just for being cute!

A close up of his sweet face and tiny hands!

Everyone knows I love feet, but I especially love baby feet! They’re so tiny! Cutest little toes

Maggy holding the little one. He loves his Momma!

One of the first shots I took. He looks awfully suspicious of me!

I had the best time today! I got to photograph a tiny cutiepie and he was awake! How rare! I got to see those beautiful eyes and get the expressions! Thank you Maggy and Jeff for choosing Wellspring to photograph your precious memories! We are doing sessions now for Christmas cards so feel free to call and make your appointment! Christmas is going to be here before we know it!
