Couples/Engagement photos are some of my favorites. They are young, beautiful, and happy! What’s not to love?

I took these pictures during Brainwash with Lauren Clark. Lauren Rocks!

This is “Digger”. She has been a member of our family for ten years. She has been very sick. I knew that the day would come when she would be old and we might not have her but I was not ready. My son got Digger when he was 4 years old from Santa Claus. He was convinced that Santa “made” her in his workshop. They have been best buddies all this time. A couple of weeks ago when I thought we were going to have to put Digger down I took some pictures of her out in the front yard. Although it looks like she is “smiling” in these pictures she couldn’t walk at all. It was a very sad day but I wanted Landry to have something to remember her by. So I sat out in the yard feeding her a Happy Meal and crying all over my camera. Luckily our wonderful vet (Jodie Uptergrove if you need one) has been trying to get Digger well and back home to us. Today might be the day….I hope so. I miss her.

Here are a few of my favorites from Jana and Gilbert’s wedding. It was at The Morning Glory House in Christoval (and it’s where I got married!). It is such a beautiful place and the weather was perfect. I had so much fun with this couple!

The parents of this baby girl waited seven long years to get her here. I think she was worth the wait!

Here are some pictures of MY quarterback. It has been so much fun to watch and photograph him this season. (Go Cougars!) I have had some parents ask if I would go to their child’s sporting event and take pictures. OF COURSE! My only stipulation is it can’t be on Thursday nights because I have a standing appointment with #7. I am also available for team pictures and have several affordable packages available. Just call me for details.

This was a sweet military family.  They have this precious girl and a new baby on the way.  When I asked the dad if he thought he would be deployed he said that he might and that it was “just part of the job.”  I really appreciate all the sacrifices our military forces make to preserve our freedoms.

This senior had the MOST AMAZING eyes I have ever seen!  He was such a cool kid and I loved taking his pictures.

I get to do the wedding next week!  So excited!  :)
