Jessica & Chad

This sweet couple is getting married next month and I am really looking forward to their wedding. Jessica LOVES Normandy Church (how could you not...it's gorgeous) so we decided to start their engagement session there just incase the weather won't allow us to make pictures outside the church on their wedding day. I love how Jessica has such a warm smile and then two seconds later she can glam it up for the camera with her beautiful serious look. Thanks again you two!

Libby and Tim

A few weeks back we photographed Libby and Tim's wedding in Dayton and it was such a great time! Holy Angels Catholic church is one of the prettiest in Dayton and we had such a blast with the wedding party! In case you have noticed, I've sort of taken a break from adding a rhyme to each post. Well part of the reason for this is because I know I need a lot more work in that department. Libby's sister Heather gave a speech was a poem she had written for Libby. O M GOOODNESSSS! Libby was crying, over half the wedding party was crying, I was crying, and I think half the room was teary eyed! Needless to say I could use a few pointers from Heather w/ my rhyming!!! Thank you again to Libby, Tim and their famillies for such a wonderful day!












Sorry Tim.... I couldn't resist....and remember you asked me to take your picture!!! :)


Monogram lighting on the dancefloor provided by Party Pleasers, it's such a nice touch!




a little photobooth fun

Lia Sophia

I was asked to do some promotional pictures for a few members at the Dayton Bridal Connection
Kristin of Lia Sophia jewelry supplied the beautiful jewelry (ladies you should check out their stuff...it's great)
Price Stores and Linda's Bridal and Formal provided the attire, while Elite Hair Designs did the hair and Pearls and a Black Dress applied the makeup. Here are my faves from our shoot.

Meet Gloria & Family weekend

This post is way overdue as I make my way to being caught up on this blog!!! Way back when we did Corrin and Dan's wedding up in Norton Shores Michigan we were able to visit some of my family who live 20 minutes away. My nephew Devin recently got a new pet and named her Gloria! Isn't she pretty?? I got to hold her and she liked my diamond...LOL! We also got to meet my brother Kevin's new dog Lilly! For those of you wondering...I do plan to put the slide show up from our trip to Oregon soon.
