Boys, Tractors, Dirt & Dogs…

We’ve had a totally great weekend – no photo sessions for me after Friday evening – which made for a really relaxing couple of days with my boys!  Josh and Ty can’t hardly stand to be indoors for any length of time, especially if there is a perfectly good tractor nearby.  This weekend, I’m pretty...

August 1, 2007 - 9:48 am Megan - Great shots! I love pictures of boys just being boys. And, your dog looks just like our dog, Buddy. Is he/she a black lab?

Jentrie and her family…

I was priveledged enough to photograph this little gal on her 2nd birthday!  She was a total cutie and had some of the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen!  For me, this was an especially fun shoot because Jentrie’s mommy is an old friend of mine from high school who I have not seen in a...

July 29, 2007 - 10:46 pm Heather - Hey Shannon! Cute pics! That one on the bridge (#9) is soo darling! Great capture!

the BIG one…

Apparently, I don’t know the difference between the BIG fish and the LITTLE one…  It has recently come to my attention that I posted the smaller catch from the deep sea fishing trip – I’d better get the BIG one posted, right!!!  So, without further ado…

I’ll be posting more later today…
Happy Thursday to you all!

Los Cabos – part two

Well, I said I’d do a part two that’d be coming "super quick".  Somehow, "super quick" turned into "quite a while".  HEE HEE!  Sorry about that…  Here are some more from our totally awesome trip to CABO!

These next two are of Josh’s deep sea fishing expedition.  He and Rick went two different days and caught...

Kyle… and his family

Believe it or not, this is another one of my past students.  It’s hard to believe they’re all graduating this coming year.  I’ve been doing a ton of senior sessions – it’s so strange to see so many of my past students all grown up.  Some of them, I hardly recognize.  But, not Kyle.  He’s...

Burke Family

This family is one I’ve know for years.  Destiny, the georgous sister wearing the little black shirt in the picture, has been a best friend of my little sister’s for as long as I can remember.  She’s even been on a few vacations with us throughout the years.  So, this session was extra-special to me. ...

Swimming with dolphins…

if you’ve never done it – you really should.  My life is changed because of this one instance.  These creatures truly are unique and special.  Our dolphin was Ricardo.  Ricardo was rescued from a net and brought to this facility to live out his days swimming with folks like us.  Kristy and I had the...

Wedel Family

While we were vacationing with the Wedels, Kristy and I thought it’d be a perfect time for their family photos!  Of course, the boys thought we were a little crazy.  We didn’t give them much choice though!  Here are some great shots of  Rick, Kristy, and Bella!
