Abril and I had been in contact for several months trying to find a time to get her pictures done. First for maternity, then birth story, but finally we were able to make the magic happen at a in-home lifestyle session with her husband, toddler and newborn baby boy.

This Location + these people + that sunset. It was a fool proof recipe for a magical shoot!

Liz + Matt. Engagement along the Mississippi

Liz and Matt were such a great couple to work with. As is normal, they went into the shoot like a lot of my couples admitting they were "not good at taking pictures" and just hoped "I could get a few good ones"

Ummmm, As you can tell from these pictures, they were clearly wrong! Seriously ALL their pictures turned out great!

I was so stoked to have been asked to take some speaking photos of Pastor Larry. If you're not sure who he is, or you haven't heard of him, you should 100% check out him website and ministry by clicking here.  Granted this opportunity only actually came to me because Bethany Church's normal photographers were all booked, but I was honored all the same!

It was a beautiful day for some garden style maternity and family shoot with Carla and Oliver. We just recently moved to Louisiana from Baton Rouge, and Carla recently relocated here with her family from Peru. Love the way these dreamy pictures turned out!

Roni has been one of my dearest friends since the first day we met, when we ere blindly set up as freshman roommates at ORU. This wedding was everything, and I love the pictures almost as much as I adore the couple!

I had so much fun shooting this lovely preggo and her toddler Fiona! Judah and Fiona are only a day apart in age also, so thats fun. Not only is Melissa a great friend and awesome pastor, she is also a phenomenal harpist.... as in she's-literally-played-for-royalty-in-England good. 

She was also so patient while I practiced indoor and low light shooting - something I am still very new at, but so far love!

This lady is unbelievably gorgeous and photogenic, but as pretty as she is, it is pale in comparison to how beautiful she is on the inside. She literally has dedicated her life to sharing Jesus and loving people, and it is the true definition of beauty. Also she just got married, and if you can, you should take a look at her weddings pictures (I didn't take them. but I am a huge fan!) 

Colleen + Nate

Colleen + Nate

The not-so-typical international love story. Both were in South Korea teaching english, and they met because of mutual church involvement. It was so fun going downtown Daegu and shooting some pictures of these lovlies. We had a lot of curious Korean onlookers, but that only added to the charm.

Sweet Zurey was only a few days old when her mom asked me to take some garden pictures of the two of them. I'm in love with that evening golden glow... and that sweet baby of course!

Daniel and Anna's Engagement sesh ended up being a stormy and rainy afternoon in Mosier. We considered rescheduling, but man those clouds were just too pretty to pass up. We all may have gotten a bit wet and cold, but all for love, right? :)

This shoot was from quite a few years ago, and was my first engagement shoot ever! I was so nervous but the subject were thankfully my brother and his finace, and they were so much fun! This shoot was in the PNW, right outside of Mosier in the Columbia Gorge. SIDE NOTE: If you ever have the opportunity to go to Oregon, you realllly should. it is stunning.

Josh + Anna || Columbia River Gorge Bridal Shoot

They MAY have gotten married a few weeks prior in Tulsa Oklahoma, but we all decided it was well worth it to put the bridal regalia back on and snap some "wedding" pictures in the gorgeous Columbia River Gorge. If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times. you MUCH visit the Gorge. I am convinced it is the most beautiful place in the entire world.

I have been beyond grateful for these two people, professionally (I took their engagement photos and their wedding photos!) but especially personally. I've know both these guys for years and they are the best, most genuine people out there.
