Here are a couple sneak peeks from the weekend. Rusty and Amanda got married in a sweet ceremony Saturday. They both looked great and we really enjoyed the laid back day. They're so cute together! Yesterday we met up with Jerry and Adrienne for their rad engagements. We've been looking forward to this one for a quite some time and it didn't disappoint. These two are fun! =) All of these guys helped us to have a great weekend!
Happy end of Monday!
Beautiful picture! I enjoyed watching you guys work, bet you are exhausted at the end of a shoot!

He is just the happiest little guy I think I've ever seen. He is SO smiley! Amber and David are amazing parents. They work together very well and life revolves around him...in a good way...the way it should. It was cool to see that.
Now, he wasn't too sure about us when we got there...but he quickly warmed up to me and in no time was flashing that good-lookin' grin my way. =) Dac on the other hand, poor guy, pretty much just got stared at until the last day we were there. He barely even blinked. It was hilarious! Dac thought it was his glasses...sure...that's it. =) He was mesmerized by something...that's for sure.
Anyway, while we were down there we HAD to get a few shots. He just happened to be 6-months! Here's a few. They're definitely not what we had hoped to to get but we had fun doing it.
David and Amber - thanks again for letting us stay!! It was good to catch up. Can't wait to do it again! T-man, thanks for being so fun and cute! =)
This weekend is a wedding weekend for us...which means not much else gets accomplished...including blog posts. But keep checking back, I promise we'll have posts again! We'll have two weddings, a bridal session, and a family to post. Then Labor Day weekend....look out....lots of sessions then!
Thank you so much for doing his pictures! I love them, the last one of this slide is my favorite! But thanks again. They turned out great!

Lindsey (along with her brother and sisters) literally spent months planning this special shindig for her mom and dad. She had everything decorated for a cool, elegant, rustic vibe, which I thought was just perfect. Her mom's family is from Germany so Lindsey had them take pictures of themselves with a note to the happy couple and those were framed at the party since they couldn't be there in person. Very cool. Everyone had a great time yelling surprise (and they really were surprised - how great is that!?!) and telling old stories. Lindsey gave a touching speech and I even found myself tearing up! Who knows what my problem was. Maybe it was my hurt leg. Yeah, that's it. =)
One of the coolest (and sometimes most awkward) things about photography is that you have to step into some of the most private, intimate moments in someone's life...and they let you! I'm in the dressing room as a bride gets her dress on and her mom adjusts her veil, we witness the very first moment the groom sees that beautiful bride, we hear family stories...sometimes embarasing (but funny) ones, we also see tears, and in this case we got to view a really cool slideshow she put together of their family's whole life together. =) It was pretty awesome and her mom is actually quite the photographer! Anyway, here's a glimpse of the night.
Told you. Cool family! God has really blessed us with these opportunities.
Wonderful pictures. Looks like a good time. I was there the first time..love the wedding picture. Congratulations Christel and Danny!

We had a great time doing this session out on Rusty's family land. It involved lots of hiking, knee-high brush, and several "stay calm Alisha, no snake is going to eat you alive" pep talks to myself. =) It was work but it was worth it for the cool spots we found. Check them out!
We are so excited for Rusty and Amanda's wedding over Labor Day weekend! It's at a quaint country church (a sister church to the one we go to to) where we just happen to have sunrise service each year. Anyway, can't wait!! These two are fun to be with!
They look so happy! The pictures aren't bad either..tee hee
