This will be another short one, I have so much to catch up on. Cory & I just got back from Las Vegas for a much needed vacation celebrating our 10 year anniversary. We had a blast & I have so many pictures to share. I also still have more to share from Crystal & Nate’s E-session a few weeks ago, so look out for those. For now I thought I’d share the first few picks from Jessica & Lance’s engagement shoot yesterday. I’m so happy the rain stopped for these, we’ve had some bad luck with rain the last few weeks. I hope we’re done with it.

Cory took the adorable shot above, they look so cute together!

Here’s the whole crew!  These two sure made some adorable little guys! Can’t wait to see them all dressed up for the wedding in July!

Just a quick preview before I head to bed.  I want to thank Crystal & Nate for being so good humored today!
Thanks to my good friend &  photographer Shannon Colgan from Shaze Impressions for helping me out!

More to come

This Saturday Jenny & Ben had a gorgeous ceremony at First Presbyterian Church in Davenport with a reception at amazing The University Club.  We were so lucky to get to share in their special day.  Jenny & Ben were so sweet & we had so much fun working with them.  Here’s a few of my favorite pictures from the day.


Jenny looked so beautiful!

Love the back of the cake topper! LOL. Cory took this one.

Now for the goofy stuff!

We set up a photo booth for Jenny & Ben with some crazy props! I had my friend Teresa Ousely of Wiz of Oz Photography help me out & run the booth. She sure got some crazy shots!

I guess table 12 was the place to be.

What a cutie!!

I don’t even want to know what that was.

Cory took this one of Teresa & I right before we tore everything down.  We’re bringing sexy back. Scary.

I want to thank the DJ from SAS Entertainment for helping us out with announcing the booth. Also thank you to The University Club for helping me get the space figured out, they’ve probably become my favorite reception hall, EVER!

I’ll finish up with something pretty!

More to come…

I’m so happy for her! Heather & Brent seem perfect for each other, and they’re super cute together. I’m happy she’s got someone else to look after her, since she’s been looking out for me for as long as I can remember. She’s one of the most caring people I know.

I feel a little bad, this was probably one of the most difficult e-sessions I’ve ever had.  Sunday was gorgeous all day, and about 5:00 I’m driving to Heather’s house & the sky starts looking a bit dark. By the time we get to her house we have to change plans to try to beat the storm.  We made it down to the river for a few minutes before it started pouring.  Then we stopped at Lavender Crest Winery & the owners were nice enough to let us, even though they were closed!

You probably can’t tell it, but it’s pouring outside of the gazebo and the wind was whipping all over the place. I’m glad they were willing to brave the weather though because in the end we got some great pictures & I wound up experimenting a lot more with off camera light a lot more than I would have. I love a good challenge!
