Things to Come...

My maternity leave is going by so quickly!! Even though I haven't been taking session appointments, I haven't been completely off work. We have been working on some new backgrounds and updating some things at the studio to improve your experience with us! I am very excited and can't wait to share these things with you soon!

They Change So Fast!





Here's little Noah at 5 weeks. He is doing something new everyday. He is staying more alert during the day and has starting giving us a couple of smiles!! He grunts ALL the time. It's hilarious! Ashton is loving being a big sister and has started to hold him some since he is getting bigger. We are enjoying this time. I hope everyone is doing well and is enjoying the beginning of summer.

Our Son...Noah






Here he is!!!! Our new blessing and joy...Noah Shane. He arrived on April 19 at 2:02 am. He weighed 7 pounds 1 ounce. He ended up arriving a week before my scheduled C-Section and almost two weeks before my actual due date. When it was all said and done, God was definitely watching over us. We had a great team of physicians and nurses taking care of us at the hospital.
Ashton is loving being a big sister. She loves to kiss and hold him. It is a joy to watch them together. It is surreal to finally have him here! I will definitely post more images as he grows. He has already changed since these images. He was six days old in these. I hope everyone is doing great. Take care and God bless!

A Beautiful Addition to Our Family...



It has been a busy couple of weeks. My sister-in-law and brother had their baby girl about 3 weeks ago, and we just had little Noah on the 19th! He decided to come early and with a little drama too. I'll post more on him in the next couple of days.
Miss Addison came a little early too. These were some of her first images. Many of you know Rachael from the studio and were waiting for this post! Miss Addison is a beautiful little baby, and we are so overjoyed with her arrival. This is such a happy and memorable time for our family. We are truly blessed.

Another Beautiful Senior









The weather finally decided to cooperate with us, and we were able to finish the outdoor portion of this senior's session. It was just beautiful the day we shot these outdoor images. I am so glad it is starting to feel like spring!
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your senior year. You are such a sweet girl. I hope the rest of your senior year is amazing. Best wishes for all your future dreams!

And thank you for the baby gift - it was so thoughtful!!!

Second Senior Session






Last fall we shot the majority of this senior's portraits, but we still had a few more image ideas before her senior year ended. So, we battled the wind for these outdoor shots! Thank you for being patient with me as I waddled around getting these shots!! :)

Congratulations on an accomplished senior year! I have been so happy to be a part of it. You guys are a lot of fun, and it has been great! Best wishes for a great college life and basketball career.

THANK YOU!

Thank you to everyone who was able to make it to our Easter Special last weekend! We had an amazing turnout. It was pretty strange to be photographing Easter portraits with it snowing like crazy outside! :) Thank you again!

Sweet Baby Boy







This is such a beautiful family! They were blessed with their first born baby earlier this month, and how precious he is! We did his mother's maternity portraits a few months ago, and it is amazing to meet this miracle. I am so happy to do his first portraits. It will be great watching him grow up! I hope you love his portraits as much as I do!

Crowder Senior!














It has been a whirlwind of seniors around the studio the past couple of weeks! And it's been great! Girl...you did an amazing job during your shoot! You are very photogenic and a lot of fun! I have the best clients ever! :) I know you guys have been waiting on these, so enjoy! It was a tough selection for the blog. I saved several of my other favs as a surprise for your family and friends.

Fun Senior!













We had a blast on this senior's photo shoot. I love it when seniors have a special location that is meaningful to them to shoot some of their portraits. It helps their portraits even be more special. The wind was blowing like crazy this day, but we still managed to get tons of awesome shots. Thank you for trusting me with your senior portraits! You have accomplished so much during high school, and I know you will do well in everything in life!

Sweet Shelter Babies












These guys and gals were the sweetest babies ever!!! They were so well behaved and lovable. We are working on a project with the Pittsburg County Shelter, and we were lucky enough to photograph these babies this week. Animal adoption is something I feel very passionate about. I encourage everyone who would love to add a four legged family member to take a trip to the Pittsburg County Shelter. There are so many wonderful animals waiting for a loving home.

Outdoorsman









This senior loves the outdoors, and it was reflected in most of his images. It is great when a senior brings those things which help define who they are as an individual. It makes for awesome portraits. Thank you guys for driving over for your session! I hope you enjoy your images! I will be in touch as soon as your first order arrives.
