HAPPY THURSDAY!

So you may have noticed a lot of frequent changes to this here little blog lately. Well! I am pleased to announce that I am finally done "style" searching and SATISFIED!! Praise God!

And I MUST give credit to a dear friend of mine: Marissa of Bella Muse Photography {shout out!!}, who designed the snazzy new logo you see there at the top of the page :)

... this definitely made my morning trip to the dentist way more enjoyable...

{and because I KNOW you are wondering, I would like to report a whopping ZERO cavities... YAY ME}

On this beautiful Thursday afternoon, I am one happy girl!

So bear with me as I get the website cohesive to this beautiful-ness.

SO, shoot me an email or call me and set up your session while there are still available dates :)

{dont know about you, but every now and then I come across one of these cards that just speaks to me and makes my day a little better}

{marriage retreat}

A few weeks ago we went to a pretty awesome marriage retreat and I was able to capture some fellow Ranger families. They're all pretty fabulous if you ask me :)

The amazing and awesome Marissa, of Bella Muse Photography, took these extra special photos for us :)

My Boys :)

So my little man, who I guess is not so little anymore, turned 2 last month!

I can still remember the day we brought him home from the NICU. I mean really, everything: packing up his things, carrying him out to the car, what it felt like to have him outside for the first time and (I dont think anyone could forget it) I remember Josh and I trying to get the car seat base loaded into the car... and wondering why we didnt do that very thing DAYS ago, haha.

Then I blinked. And now that "lump of a baby", as Josh like to call him :), is two.

AND he is going to be a big brother! AND we bought a house!

After weeks of feeling sick and tired, I got up the energy and motivation to take him out and try to get a few shots of my boys together.

raina {family}

This was the second time I got to shoot the beautiful Raina family and it was extra special this time as Adi's parents were in from INDIA! They only come every few years so I was honored when Arwyn contacted me to get some photos for them.

katie & walter {married}

I really enjoyed being a part of Katie and Walters day. They were intent on keeping things simple and really focusing on the importance of this important step in their relationship and their true love for one another. Isnt that what the day should be about anyways?

Katie & Walter, I wish you all the best and God's blessings on your new life together. I am truly honored and thankful you chose me to capture your memories.

I am also thankful that the rain held off so we could get some really awesome photos : )

May has been filled to the brim with traveling and marriage retreats and LOTS of great photos : ) 

Our first stop was Jacksonville, FL for our units Marriage Retreat. We stayed at the Sawgrass Marriott , also the PGA tour location, and it was so beautiful! We did not want to leave. If you ever are in need of a place to stay while visiting Jacksonville, I HIGHLY recommend the Sawgrass.

While enjoying our Retreat, I also had the pleasure of taking some photos for families and couples also in attendance. Everyone was so awesome to work with and took some fantastic photos. I seriously want to get some prints to hang in my own house... I just love them so much : ) 

While I continue to catch up on some editing and get ready for some future sessions, heres a sneak peak at some of awesome-ness from Jacksonville...

...MORE TO COME SOON...
