I had the honor of photographing Olivia's 3 Year-Old Session. It was a beautiful day out, which made for a great outdoor session at a park. It was a lot of fun photographing Olivia again, because she remembered me and wasn't shy during the session. Bethany had a lot of great props and ideas for the session which was so much fun to photograph! Thanks for letting me photograph Olivia's Children Session, I can't wait to photograph your family more in the future!
I had the honor of Photographing Jacob & Justine's Wedding May 21st. It turned out to be a very beautiful warm day after a rainy morning. This couple was great & fun to photograph because of their chemistry together. The wedding party made it a fun & interesting day! I was glad we were able to go to the Humboldt/Dakota Museum for some outdoor photographs. I love to photograph Weddings other than the Alter of the Church, however those are still very classic and always turn out amazing. Congratulations Jacob & Justine!
I had the honor of photographing Christian & Michelle's Engagement Session. I have been friends with Michelle since the 3rd grade, and was happy to be their photographer. I have gotten to know Christian very well this past year as the 3 of us are roommates. It was also an honor that our friend was back from Africa for a few weeks and could join us with the session! Michelle defiantly made the session fun and interesting , and Christian was up for anything which made it enjoyable. It was very windy in Ames that day but we made the best of it. I look forward to being the Maid-of Honor & the Photographer! Congratulations Christians and Michelle!
