Wedding: Anthony & Ryann

by

Anthony and Ryann’s day was so much fun!  As a photographer I rank this day at the top!  I mean who can beat a bride willing to take pictures with temperatures in the 20s and snow on the ground?!  It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!  Cold, but beautiful! 🙂

I think this time I will just let the pictures speak for themselves to tell you the story of their day…

Senior: Janelle {Class of 2014}

Let me tell you a little about Janelle!  You see, Janelle is my youngest cousin (yes, I’m the oldest!), so I have had the privilege of watching Janelle grow up…literally right next door.  Janelle is outgoing, fun-loving, loves to sing, play basketball, and has a great desire to serve God…which makes me so proud of her!

When asked what her plans are after graduation this is what she shared, “I am hoping to go to college where I will major in Social Work, and hopefully sing in a worship group of some sort, or join the REACH program.  Most of all, I just want to do what God wants me to, so that I can bring honor and glory to Him through my life…that’s my ultimate goal.”

While our family was vacationing in Florida we were able to find some time for a senior session on Siesta Key.  What fun to have a new location and new look for senior portraits!

Janelle, the Lord bless you as you seek Him and serve Him.  Love you much!

Wedding: Kirby & Heather

by

Kirby and Heather’s day began early with breakfast at Sunny Street Cafe.  It was important to Heather to have lots of candid photos of their day and she wanted to capture a little alone time before the hustle and bustle of their day…what a neat memory for them!

Then we were off to the church where both the wedding and reception were held.  The natural beauty of winter was brought indoors with evergreen trees lining the entryway and as a backdrop on the stage.  The K & H Coffeehouse was a fun treat for the guests accompanied by a delicious lunch of soup and salad bar.  Kirby and Heather had a lovely day surrounded by family and friends.  They had a “sweet” exit to their reception…little snowflake candies were thrown at them.

Congratulations, Kirby and Heather!
