Cameron Barfield is 1!!

Happy Birthday!!

Here's a little look back at his last year of portrait sessions.

A favorite from his 6 month photo session....

... and our first meeting, when he was only 9 days old!

I can't believe how much he's changed, it's so much fun to watch.

The Goodwin Family

Mire is 6 months old, what a little man!

This was such a fun family, although apparently Mire wasn't as happy as usual, can you tell?! I think he did great! Babies are tricky, but we'll always get good photos. ;)

I think October is one of the best months to have a wedding. Perfect wedding date guys! You can't get lighting like this everyday.
We definitely took advantage of the day and spent a ton of shoot time outside downtown and by the lakefront. My favorite locations, I'll recommend it everytime! Some of my favorite shots of the year are from this wedding... so enjoy a sneak peak before they hit my website.

What a freakin' sexy ring shot! You noticed the rings... right?

Jessica and Carlos 8.25.08

The first of two weddings for Jess and Carlos, the first ever for me! The Quintanillas had a civil ceremony on August 25th, and this is something I have never photographed before. It was definitely a new experience... I wish I could photograph weddings on Mondays all the time! I'll fill you in on their next, larger more traditional wedding which takes place next June.

Jessica is also writing a blog called "Any Language Love" detailing her wedding planning journey. The link is on the blog link list to the left. Enjoy!

Ashleigh and Ryan 8.23.08

I am so happy for Ashleigh and Ryan, they are such a great couple and it was a pleasure being a part of their amazing day.

Check out this handsome guy, he's too cute not to have his own private session!

The whole party had a coreographed party dance that was so great! Talk about having entertainment at your party :)

Brittany's H.S. Senior Photos

It's amazing what we can fit in 2.5 hours. We went to 3 locations, got at least 2 looks from each and changed outfits more than 4 times. We got a really diverse session and I couldn't be more pleased! This fisrt location is my FAVORITE! I love the colors that we found in these props, how they worked with the setting and her clothes. How perfect.

Jane and Scott 8.16.08

I'm not sure I've ever been to a more laid beack wedding! There were great beachy details, colors that gave this beach house a real resort feel. Everything went so smoothly and there were so many fun details to photograph that everywhere I turned there was something I hadn't noticed before.

I love how creative Christi is. She was so fun to photograph because she knows what she wants and how to pull it off. And how cool are the places she chose to visit for her shoot!

Nichole and Donnell 8.2.08

Lately I've been obsessed with ring shots.
When nothing else is going on, you'll find me crouched down exacting the rings over invitations, flowers and even your shoes. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to have some fun with the camera ready kids at Nichole and Donnell's wedding!

This was such a fun wedding! So many suprises. Tina arrived in a white horse drawn carriage, butterlies were realeased, and there wasn't a dry eye in the audience!

What a gorgeous couple on such a beautiful day!




It was so fun watching them dance, they really put on a show.
