Wedding: Evan & Amanda

Evan and Amanda’s mid-September wedding fell on a very bright and sunny day, which was perfect for their plans of an outdoor reception.

The reception was simply beautiful…beside the Little Darby Creek where Evan grew up.  The details and decor were unique to the setting…a canoe to hold the gifts, large tree stumps as the entryway, and the natural tree canopy provided by the woods with lights strung throughout.  Here’s a little glimpse into their day…

Wedding: Mike & Sarah

Mike and Sarah had an absolutely beautiful wedding…not a detail was missed!  When I think of words to describe their day a few that come to mind are: elegant, simple beauty, and country.  I’ll allow the pictures to tell the story of their day…

Engagement: Sheldon & Rebecca

The location of Sheldon and Becca’s engagement portraits holds many special memories for Sheldon.  His grandparents have passed away and their farm has since been sold, but the day of their session they obtained permission to use the farm for their pictures.  You’ll see in the pictures his grandpa’s old tractor and the unique tree that has been growing in the Big Darby Creek for years.
