Today was Kiera and Brian’s beach wedding in Florida! Yes I am in Florida now! We got to fly down and enjoy the weather which was perfect today! The bridal party looked beautiful and the colors were wonderful! Here are a few of Ryan’s amazing shots! P.S. I have tons of images for this post so watch out!

As usual I saved my favorite for last, you can’t go to the beach (on your wedding day) without a little romance and passion! This is just the perfect end to a perfect wedding day!

Kiera and Brian you two are perfect for each other! Everyone around you can see that and that is wonderful. We had so much fun and thanks for having us down to Florida for your big day! As usual leave comments everyone, we love to hear from you!

These are the Hamiltons. They are all going different directions this summer and they wanted to get a few photos together before they all took off! I had such a fun time with these guys, they are laid back and they like to have fun too! They kept me laughing!

That’s right, the winner of our Giving Back contest is this tiny bean Ava! She was awake almost the whole time and she could not have been more content! She really is beautiful and I had such a fun evening with her! I even got to hold her a little bit! Near the end she fell asleep and she was really out! We moved her all around and she didnt even stir! Here are a few of my favorites, it was hard to only choose a few!

I got to use our new diaper cover! She looks so sweet in it! If you are interested in one I got it here.

She was so alert! She was looking right at me! I told you she was a cutie!

ava on bench

Ava’s great grandpa made this bench and it’s been in her family for years and years! I just thought it would be sweet!

ava in a basket

Ava’s mom Ashley had these sparkly letters that spell her name! I love details like that!

She is just so pretty! 

ava and flowers

As always I saved my favorite for last! All the flowers were from her mama’s baby shower!  I just loved all the pink!

Thank you readers for all your entries for the contest and keep in mind we will do more! I had a ton of fun with little Ava today! We really do enjoy getting to know our clients and, in some cases, watch them grow!

 Today I photographed a place I have stayed at; The Millhouse in Grand Rapids, OH. My boy and I got to stay there and it is wonderful! It is so cozy, the food is awesome, and the hosts Ron and Kathy couldn’t be more hospitable! Every detail of this B&B is immaculate! I think everyone should stay at the Millhouse! Here are some of my favorites!

millhouse

It is so charming! Love the history!

millhouse sign

There’s the number, go book a night now!

garden room detail

I told you every detail was just right!

They have little guest books in each room, they get lots of love from their guests!

A cozy chair for naps or reading a good book!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the sign!

One of the paths in the garden in the back!

Look how cozy and beautiful!

I have to add one extra tidbit of information!  Kathy makes (and sells) the best scones I have ever tasted! If I could eat them everyday for every meal I would! My hub and I recommend The Millhouse for any couple looking for a romantic getaway!

I simply adore these two tiny dancers! They are so sweet, cuddly, and of course beautiful! I had a fun day photographing these two traipsing around the park in their tutus! They are the epitome of the girly girl! I have way too many favorites today so beware…this is a long post! I love tutus (if you can’t tell!) When I was young I loved anything that had to do with ballerinas, princesses or fairies! So naturally I love photographing little ones who are pretending they are the same! Here you go!

Grace and Faith

I told you they are beautiful!

Gracie on steps

Love the sun, the tutu, and Gracie’s curly blonde hair!

Faithie on steps

Faithie is so tiny! Look how cute she is!

Grace kissing Faith

These two really are snuggle bugs! I got tons of kisses and hugs myself!

Close ups

These are my favorites of each girl, I had to put them side by side! They make me smile!

Grace and Faith, back to back

They just kept giving me the best smiles!

Grace in front of water

So beautiful! I think these girls could model professionally!

Faith

This really shows Faith’s personality! When she laughs she throws her head back! So cute!

sweet girls

They really are sweet sisters!

Thank you for having me out today Tricia and Matt! I really adore your family and your girls are beautiful! I hope you enjoyed the images and I can’t wait to show you the rest! Anyone interested in tutus I got them here! Leave comments everyone, you know I love it!

Today I got to photograph this beautiful little one! She is super sweet and has the cutest little smile! She kept laughing and her mom and dad dressed her in the cutest outfits! Ellison is very dainty but also squishy and that is the best combo there is! Her bright smiles warmed up my day!

I want to thank all of you for participating in the giving back contest! We got some great entries and we truly love hearing from you, we love connecting with our clients! We had an entry sent in for the Mohr family by their good friend who thinks they deserve some family photos and some baby photos! Josh and Ashley Mohr just had a baby girl, Ashley was going to dental school when she found out she was pregnant and had to drop out due to dangers to the baby. She also had some hardships due to pregnancy and had to leave her job. The family has been going through a rough patch with the economy, (aren’t we all?) and their adoring friend Erin thinks they need some pictures of their new beautiful daughter! That is just what I am going to do! I will keep you posted on this family and when we get the images you know I will blog right away! Congratulations Mohr family, I will be in touch with you soon!
