Meet little Corbin

Corbin was such a good little guy for his infant photo session.  Whether awake or asleep, he was so good-natured.  We started it with some lovin' from big brother, Cooper.






As an added bonus for me, Cooper decided he needed to vacuum my floors while I was taking photos.  According to Mom & Dad, cleaning is a favorite activity of Cooper's.


I love sleeping baby photos...so sweet.



 
Congrats again, Perryman family!  Thanks for asking me to capture these images of this beautiful new addition to your family.

Estle Family 2014

You've seen them here before, but I had the pleasure of once again capturing my niece's beautiful family in photos.  I've also said before that my opinion might be biased because I'm related to them, but I seriously think this family gets more attractive all the time. 


One of the reasons for this photo shoot was to commemorate Mason's 13th birthday.  Mason is becoming such a handsome young man, and I don't know of a nicer 13 year-old boy.
 




 Gotta love that golden evening light...and such a pretty girl for a subject.









Estle family, thank you again for this evening - it was lots of fun!

Cooper and his family

Life has a way of keeping us so busy that time slips away before we know it.  It's been an especially busy year for Dave and Alisha (moving to a new house, a daughter graduating from high school, new baby on the way...and all in a very short time! Whew!), which is why it's been a while since we've done a photo shoot with little Cooper...and we barely squeezed in Alisha's maternity pictures before Cooper's little brother decided to make his appearance. 
So let me share some of Cooper's toddler photos because before long I will be posting his baby brother's newborn shoot.
Cooper is sure a little cutie, but he's not really a fan of posing, sitting, or smiling on cue, so you pretty much just have to follow him around and try to capture the natural looks of curiosity and happiness.


Love this image of all 3 of you!





Our plan was to schedule another time for more maternity photos, but...well...baby Corbin decided he wasn't waiting for another photo shoot to take place.  Luckily we got a few photos to remember this pregnancy by!  Alisha, you always made such a beautiful mama-to-be.

Thanks, Dave and Alisha, for asking me to capture these special times.  Stay tuned for some adorable images of the newest family member.

Lindsey & Matt - Married!

Lindsey and Matt's big day dawned bright and beautiful.  You seriously could not have asked for a more perfect day for a wedding.  Which was really fitting for 2 such lovely people as Lindsey and Matt starting their life together!  It was a day filled with excitement, happiness, love, and warm-hearted support from family and friends who couldn’t wait to see Lindsey and Matt tie that knot.  It’s always an honor to capture photos of a couple’s most important day, but it’s extra-special when you can just feel that they are meant to be together…something I felt right away with these two.




 




Lindsey’s mom, Cindy, is a good friend of mine, so I’ve known for a while now how happy she was about this union.  Having recently been a mother-of-the-bride myself, I know the mix of emotions that come over you on your daughter’s wedding day.  Cindy, you were the picture of calm and grace all day long.  I love this image of beautiful mother and daughter.

 
Lindsey chose to have a first look with her dad, which turned out to be one of the most touching moments of the day.  His reaction to seeing his beautiful daughter as a bride was priceless. 

…which is no surprise since this is what he saw as he came around the corner.








Matt was getting ready in the other end of the building and was so excited to get this day underway.



Matt and his brothers have a very tight bond, but they adore Lindsey too and could not be happier for their brother.










Lindsey and Matt, it was a pleasure and an honor to photograph your big day.  I know you’re having a wonderful time in Hawaii and I pray that your life together will be filled with God’s richest blessings.  I’m confident that God has big plans to carry out both for you and through you.
