Indiana Conference and Bridal Shoot

This week has been crazy. Monday I flew into Chicago for a conference in Indiana. I arrived and drove 2 hours to pick up my sister-in-law in Michigan and then 3 hours to go to Indiana. The last couple of days I have been shooting with some amazing photographers and learning some great techniques!! It has been fun. Today we finished up and I drove another 3 hours to Chicago where I am going to pick up my husband tomorrow for a wedding we have in Michigan this weekend... it has been nuts!

On Tuesday we did a Bridal shoot and found some great spots. Below are some of my favorites from the shoot.

John and Shelley

Yesterday we were in Sedona at L'Auberge Resort. What a beautiful location! I LOVE shooting in Sedona; the creek, mountains, and greenery just make for such an amazing background! I couldn't be happier with how the pictures turned out! Shelley and John were such a fun couple! They even got into the creek for some pictures, some fun, and to cool down! They are so down to earth, in love, and so kind. You could tell that their family and friends love them so much and they are really special people! I was so blessed to be a part of this day! Below are some of my favorite pictures from the day. If you want to see a slideshow of some of my favorites please CLICK HERE.

Cindy and Adam at the Wright House

This weekend I had a wedding at the The Wright House in Mesa, AZ. Cindy was so excited to see Adam. The pictures turned out great and we got some really cute shots of the kids there.

Thanks guys for allowing me to photograph your wedding!!

If you would like to see a slideshow of the event click here .

Below are some of my favorites.

The Dress



Cindy had a single earing from her grandma that she asked Adam to have reduplicated so that she could wear them for her wedding. Well, when the earings came back they actually did a whole set, so she took the original earing and wore it as a necklace. It was beautiful.


The Bride


The Groom


These Kids were great... watch as the moment unravels...

PreDesigning Albums

I'm so excited! We are starting to do pre-designs of albums now and I am loving it! Basically we are choosing our favorite images and pre-designing the album. The couple can then make any changes that they would like, but this way they have an idea of what the album could look like! I really think it's going to help those who are just getting so frustrated with having to choose their own images!

The last predesign we did was for Samantha and Peter - this is straight off the press!!

If you would like to see the album please click on the image
