Chris & Hope are the cutest couple I've seen! Usually during my sessions I have to pose the couple and as soon as the photo is taken, they stand and wait for my next instructions. With Chris & Hope I found myself having to keep my camera trained on them because as soon as I told them the shot was good, they'd do something even cuter! Their love for each other just emanated from them - it would have been impossible not to photograph it. You can just see their love for each other in their photos.

Chris & Hope - You guys are great! I wish you the best in your marriage!

We did a photoshoot the other day of an awesome senior!  Ashlee is a very fun, outgoing, and beautiful young lady, inside and out.  I spent a few hours with her for the shoot and it felt like I've known her forever.  If you have a chance to get to know Ashlee, you should - you won't regret it!  She is also into photography as well - go check out her stuff here!

I got to take photos of a very cute family the other day. We got a couple really good family shots, but very soon after the children were anxious to be done. Luckily we had picked a location with a playground - so as soon as they got fussy, we all went to the playground to let out that energy. It was very hard to chase the kids around on the playground, but I managed to get some shots of them playing. Then we got a few shots of the kids, a couple more of the family all together, and then some more of Lucas - it was his first birthday photos. Enjoy the sneak peek!

















I just had to include a couple funny photos! These were too cute!

Stacey and Bryan have been friends of my family for a while now - so much so, that their son calls my mother "grandma".  I was there on their wedding day in 2005 and I still remember thinking "they have got to be the cutest couple ever!".  I finally got to photograph them with their entire family, along with their 2 very cute boys.  We were going to do some photos outdoors at the fountain near the Edwardsville Library but it was homecoming night and there were a lot of teens there in suits and dresses - so we postponed that shoot for another time. I still had fun taking their photos, even if we had to cut it short. Enjoy the photos everyone!
