My Beautiful Jessie!

This afternoon, I had the chance to head out with my
best friend from grade school, Jessie, and take
some amazing pictures of her! She just always has
this amazing glow, and manages to lighten my mood
just talking to her! <3 you Jessie

Track Day!

Ken's new thing is to take the bike out to Blackhawk Farms Raceway, in South Beloit. Aric and I joined him at the track over the 4th of July weekend, and managed to get some great shots!!!

Paul & Danielle's Engagement Shoot

This past Sunday I had the amazing opportnity to shoot some engagement photos for Danielle and Paul. I have known Danielle for around 10 or so years. Our aunts were best friends, so we hung out every summer vacation. Already being married myself, it was a blast to be a part of Danielle's engagement, and pre-wedding events!

Check out my top picks below!

Nothing like a little {Bubble Blowing} to bring a genuine smile to anyones face!

Atop the Ira Keller Fountain

We happened to walk past this clock in the park blocks at PSU,

so of course we needed to get some pictures here!

Danielle wanted to take some pictures in Powell's Bookstore, they both had so much energy throughout the morning, playing on the ladder was hilarious!

I loved the great location ideas Danielle came up with!

Paul even found this {AMAZING} billboard to use as a backdrop!

Frozen Falls

Today we drove out the Columbia Gorge, to take in the natural beauty of the frozen waterfalls.

One of my favorites, the way the path is paved you can walk right up to the fall itself, and get some amazing shots. Today the entire path was a slippery sheet of ice, so I couldn't get too close, but it was still beautiful!

The Columbia Gorge

Jayme & Joe

Last July I was lucky enough to take some photos of my good friend and her husband while he was home on leave from Afghanistan. Here are my two favorite shots with some basic editing:

Norris Lake, Tennessee

This past week we went on vacation with my husbands family to Norris Lake Tennessee. While most of my shots were of family doing crazy things behind the boat, I managed to get one great shot of this sunset.
