Allison Cap & Gown | Senior Portrait

Time to take a break from my trip pictures and show you some portraits! 

I don't think I can say how proud I am of my baby sister! :) She is now officially finished with High School and is now starting college in the Fall! Congrats Allison!! So, SO proud of you!! 

I did her previous Senior pictures without her cap and gown and you can see those here. My Mom and her wanted some pictures of her in her cap and gown and I happily said yes! Anything for my sister! So we played around in a park and had some fun.

 

 

Thanks for looking! I hope to post some more pictures from our trip, another senior session and a maternity session!

Have a great weekend!! :)

The Downs Family | Family Portrait

This. family. is. awesome. Seriously.

I met them through my parents at their church. Right away, whenever they all gathered together, I knew that it was going to be an awesome time, as this family is really beautiful. And I'm not just talking about outer beauty (as they are all very beautiful in that way as well) but the beauty that radiates from their hearts is just so encouraging and..well...beautiful. :)

I had never photographed this many people for a family portrait before and it was SO much fun! I hope that you enjoy these pictures just as much as I enjoyed taking them.

 

What an adorable kiddo! I love babies! :) 

 

Thanks for looking! I hope that you have an amazing week.

I'll hopefully be posting a few more shoots on here within the next two weeks before we leave to go overseas. Be watching out for them!

Also, I hope to post pictures from our adventures overseas. I won't be, at this point, saying where I'm going - that info is simply FYI, also meaning that if you know where we're going, please don't mention it at this point on the blog.

Please leave some comments below - I'd love to hear from who is looking through this blog!

My Favorite Things | GAMES!

One of my favorite things to do is play games - not just any games, but specifically board games.

One game in particular that we got for Christmas was called, "Killer Bunnies." 

It's not your typical game. There are tons of rules upfront, but once you get them down it is SO much fun. Some friends introduced us to the game last year and we loved it so much that we decided to ask to receive it for Christmas.  

And then we got my mom hooked! :) 

So, I think everytime we go now, we will be play Killer Bunnies together. It's just too fun NOT to play!! 

So, if you are ever in the mood to splurge and just get a great game, get this one! It is loads of fun! :)

 

Happy Friday! Have a GREAT weekend!

Deitz Family/Shannon Headshots | Family/Business Portrait

The Deitz family is actually my husband's family. It was such an encouragement when Shannon first messaged me asking me to do her headshots.

Shannon is an inspirational speaker and travels all around speaking about different topics. I actually haven't heard her speak, but I know that she has a huge passion for people living free in Jesus and being released from hurts, habits and hang ups. She is a very authentic person who strives to live her life in the freedom that Jesus can give a person. You can check out her website here.

Since she is releasing a new book soon (CONGRATS SHANNON!) she asked me to do some new headshots of her to put on the back cover. How exciting! I can't wait to read the book.

After we did some of her headshots, we had the family come together for a few pictures. It was such a joy to hang out with them. I really love being a part of Josh's family.

Here are some of my favorites from the shoot!

This next one was BY FAR my favorite of the shoot. Shannon - YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! :)  

Now onto the family picures!

Thanks for looking - Leave the Deitz Family some love in the comment section below!

The Hartsfield Family | Family Portrait - Holiday Portrait

I first met Janelle at the church I went to while I was in college. It's hard not to want to get to know Janelle, as she is such a sweetheart. I know many people who would agree with me!

Later on, after Josh and I moved and began going to a different church, I kept up with her through her blog and watched her daughter grow up. She is the most beautiful little girl ever. That's the great things about blogs and online social networks. You can keep up with people that you could easily lose contact with when you move.

Anyways, Janelle messaged me on facebook a few weeks ago and we set up a time in the frigid cold to do a short session of her family. They were very brave. They kept telling Ella, "We're almost done!" (even though all of us knew that we still had about the entire shoot left as we just started!). It was cute.

  

I just LOVE this picture of Ella. She is so cute. 

 

Have a GREAT weekend!!
