Shea Connor

I had the pleasure of shooting Trevin and Shawn's wedding last November so when I got the email that Trevin was pregnant and wanted me to shoot their newest family member I was so excited. Baby Boy Shea Connor was only three weeks old for these pictures but believe me this little man already has style and his poses down. Who knew they made tiny little button down flannels and corduroy's for newborns! I love it!

Now I have to say that not everyone looks this darn cute yawning! I just want to pinch those little cheeks!

It's really rare that I can get such a little one to look at my camera but Shea had a knack for finding me and striking a little baby pose!

I love this one of Mommy and Shea. They both look so natural and at ease.

And we can't leave out Daddy and his Baby Boy! I have a feeling that this little guy is gonna get tons of snuggles and kisses for a long long time.

Congratulations you guys! Hope to keep shooting this little guy as he grows up to be a big guy!

Vivienne

I meet Mark and Sara years ago and Sara recently contacted me about taking some portraits of their little girl Vivienne. Miss Vivienne just started walking on her own a couple weeks before our shoot. And I had no idea of the cardio work-out I was in store for. Walking was not on this girls mind but running sure was! But in between sprints I managed to get some great pics of this little cutie! What can I say this little girl will melt you heart with one look!

Have you ever seen eyes this green on a baby! Geez they were almost the same color as the grass that day! Gorgeous!

Oh that face! That's just all you can say when you look at this pic!

I love this pic of Mommy and Vivienne. It was such a sweet little moment when they really forgot the camera was there. And a little side story, they were both watching Daddy coming toward them with a bag full of toys to play with!

This is a great one of Daddy and Vivienne too. I love how she is holding on to his hand and her sweet little grin!

I had a great time with this little family and can't wait to watch this sweet one grow up!

Stacey & Ryan September 2009

I've known Stacey almost all my life (if I told you the actual years I'd have to kill you!). Stacey and Ryan have been together now for 5 years and decided to "tie the knot" in September. They had a quiet ceremony with close friends and family. Here are some of my favorite pics from their day!

I love this pic of Stacey! And for you all of you out there wondering, yes her eyes are really that green. No Photoshop needed on those babies!

This is a great one of Ryan. I was prepared for him to be camera shy like most of my grooms but he really surprised me and made my job very easy!

I actually wore two hats for this wedding: Photographer and Florist! I might have a second career if this photography thing doesn't work out!

Love their rings and there is something so nice about a masculine hand holding these delicate little treasures.

Congrats you guys! See you soon!
