Katy.

Last week I did a shoot with the gorgeous Katy. As somewhat of a tomboy this was a far cry from the usual for her, but she was up for anything.  Katy is someone who you can spend an entire day with and not get the least bit bored.  She is laid back, funny, and as you can see beautiful, but without even knowing it...which of course makes her more so....hah.  I am so happy with what we came back with, and though someone may have left their keys in the Falls of the Ohio bathroom, lending to a 50 dollar cab ride (sigh) ...it was well worth it. Thanks Katy! You pretty much rock. :D

Courtney and Aaron

This week I had the pleasure of doing the engagement photos of my friend from work Courtney, and her fiance Aaron.  These two aren't your normal couple, in the span of a year they have taken on more responsibility than some do in a lifetime.  They have a beautiful baby girl together, Emmie, (whom i hope to take some pictures of very soon...hint hint ;)..and closed on their first house the day of this shoot!  Though mature beyond their years they still are young and have a fun relationship that i can see is based on not just love and commitment, but humor, and that utter silliness you only have when you can really be yourself around someone.  Wishing you a lifetime of happiness, laugher, and L.O.V.E.  Congrats!

Heh. 

The Bolton Family

What was going to be a maternity shoot for the lovely Emily turned out to be a bit of a family one; with husband Jeremy, son Brody, and highly anticipated Jake along for the ride.  After a morning of acorn hunting, guitar playing, and of course a few pictures being taken...haha....a possible conclusion came upon us; it just might be Emily's lot in life to be surrounded by men.  One which she is more than happy with.  Though that very well might change in the future, one thing is definite...it's Jake's lot in life to be surrounded by a loving and generous family, one which i'm sure he will be happy with as well. :)

Amber & Kaitlin; and all things Whimsy...

This week i had the pleasure of shooting two girls that i work with.  I admit, at first i found it might be a touch "creepy" to be asking two people i hardly know if i can take them out into the woods to take pictures of them...hah.  But, lucky for me, they were more than happy to and became my willing models for the day.  Amber is going to be a junior in high school this year, and Kaitlin is off to college! It was interesting spending the day with two girls so young.  Made me think back to when i was that age, carefree, and everything that happened seemed like a Possibility.  I had forgotten that feeling...glad i was reminded. 

Happiness is a direction, not a place.
