Cote Wedding Teasers ♥

What a beautiful wedding to photograph. I was so excited to find { A } was interested in hiring me to capture her special day on camera, and we quickly exchanged information and booked the date.

Just days before the wedding { D & A } discovered the church also booked a funeral for the same day as their wedding, and only hours apart, which put a dent in the decorating, and added alot of stress on these to wonderful people, and their families. It was hectic afternoon pre-ceramony, but everything turned out absolutely beautiful, decorations and all. I was honored to take their photos, and help them in any way I could. I am so happy for these two as they embark a new life together as husband and wife, and I am sending them my best wishes!

Your photos are beautiful.

Sunshine, Smile, a Red Strawberry

My darling. Uftah! she is so beautiful.

The focus is a little off on this one, but I absolutely ♥ this image. It was a 'by chance' image as I was tickling her and having a tug of war over her tricycle while holding the camera trying to photograph the great smiles and laughter. It may not be perfect but as a mommy, this is perfect to me.

Little Miss { J }

In celebration of her 1st birthday { J }s mom scheduled our session, and we crossed our fingers in hopes for good weather. Thankfully it was perfect, and the sky was a little cloudy but no rain!

 Little Miss { J } Hvidsten was not the easiest baby to make smile, but pout or grin, she is absolutely stunning. Thank you to big brother { J }. You were a helpful hand when it came to running in to get our little model here, some snacks, or distracting her to get a good photo. Good job!

Thank you for letting me photograph your little princess.

A.A & S.R Engagement Session ♥

This was a super fun photo session for me because I was photographing a classmate, and his wife to be. I never was all that close to my class generally, but I still think of them and care about them as if they were relatives in my family. Its always fun to hear about what my class mates are doing now that we are all grown up and out of highschool, so to hear that Adam had found his wife to be, and was awesome! Better yet, knowing they were both loving and serving the Lord in their relationship!

 When I got an email requesting to take a few photos I was so excited! Shawna works in the line of photography herself, so she was of course a natural when it came to being the one infront of the camera lens. Adam did well too! Ha-ha. I had a great time getting to know Shawna and the truely wonderful person she is. I wish them well as they are preparing for their wedding, and future life together.

I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. It wasnt easy picking one photo over another!!

PLUS MORE Because I couldnt resist. Seriously...how could I?
