I had a great time w/ Tyson & Mandy for their engagement pictures.. Miss Mandy is a former high school senior that I’ve photographed. I was thrilled to hear of her engagement! They were true sports, and really had fun w/ their session. I love when couples put their trust in me when I tell...
One of Ashley’s questions before their engagement session, “Would a red coat look okay for pictures?” My answer: ABSOLUTELY! Pops of color are awesome, especially when the surroundings are more neutral this time of year.. Hope she agrees after seeing the images, that it was a perfect choice Brian & Ashley first met on the...
It always seems that once we’re married, have children, etc. pictures of the parents always get pushed to the back burner. I was so happy when Deb called me about surprising her husband of 30 years, w/ a portrait session, just for the two of them. Marriage should be celebrated w/ pictures too! I hope...
There were special circumstances surrounding this engagement session.. Let’s just say the weather wasn’t always on our side, BUT, the wait was definitely worth it, in my opinion.. Even though their first session only last about 10 minutes before a rain storm came in, we still managed a few beautiful shots… Then after several reschedules...
I feel like it’s second nature to photograph these two.. That’s a good thing! lol Honored to do your engagement session, Leeann & Jason.. You might recognize them from this session. We had amazing weather the day of their pictures. I always enjoy laughing & spending time photographing you guys! Best wishes on your...
I knew from the first time I met w/ Matt & Angela that I would have tons of fun w/ them. They are both so kind-hearted, love to laugh, and they absolutely compliment one another. It’s so sweet to watch them together.. When they kept smiling & laughing through their engagement session in the midst...
I would say that Quentin & Jennifer’s wedding day couldn’t have gone better.. It was relaxed, had great weather (even w/ a brief storm coming in and quickly clearing), and everyone enjoying themselves. They both have super sweet families, and friends that like to have fun. Their ceremony took place at the Illinois Wesleyan Evelyn...
When Kindra mentioned wanting to do her & George’s engagement session at George’s family farm, I thought it was a great idea.. I love when couples want to make their engagement session a true reflection of who they are. This was a perfect setting for this down to earth couple.. George & Kindra, you are...
The baby boy that was in this tummy is going to be FOUR soon! Time flies!… One of my favorite HS Senior pics…
I was looking forward to meeting w/ this couple for their engagement session.. They traveled from up north, and I was crossing my fingers that the weather would hold out for us.. While it was WINDY as all get out, Steve & Sarah were such great sports, and so sweet together. I am super excited...
I was sooo looking forward to getting outdoors to shoot this engagement session. Little did we know that it would be FA-REEZE-ING and snowing sideways w/ crazy winds! BUT Matt & Ang were absolute troopers, and I hope once they see their pics, will agree that it was so worth it! The love that these...
I was so honored when asked to do this couple’s engagement session… My husband has known Mark’s family for his entire life! Ashton & Mark are high school sweethearts, through college, and now onto a marriage! Ashton has also become a familiar face in our home, and babysits our girls… Needless to say, we are super excited...
This sweet couple have been friends of ours for awhile now, and I’m so glad to have met them. We weren’t able to make their wedding in India, but I was honored when I was asked to do a portrait session for the two of them. You can see their love for one another, and...
It was such a pleasure working w/ Greg & Sara.. They have such a sweet, sweet love about the two of them. You can really see that spark for one another in their eyes.. I love that! It was soooooo freezing cold on the morning of their e-session, but they were the troopers and kept...
Great weather, great couple, great fun! Adrian & Tricia chose to have their engagement session near the Riverfront in Peoria, IL so I was definitely thrilled by their choice! Such a great location, and it was a beautiful August evening for it too.. I love the sweet, romantic love between these two.. Thanks for a...
