Have you ever...
...looked at a building and imagined how much fun it would be to do a photo shoot there??? Or how many amazing ideas you could do at a certain area of town?? Or even thought about just taking your camera and just photographing random things?? Well I know you probably haven't-only if your a photographer do you think like that lol. Photographers really are crazy, I have to admit! Us, photographers once we see a spot we want to do a photo shoot at we have to do it, even if we don't have a model to photograph. It will just keep itching and itching at us til we finally do it. I know I am just rambling to most people, but photographers understand what I am saying (its kinda like we have our own language lol). Anyways, I said all that to say, I have always wanted to photograph someone at this old, rustic, charming, red brick, perfect, old church that is down the street from my house. It's so cute, I love it!! Its so tall and it has such character to it. It has vines and weeds growing up all around it and it sets an awesome scene for that kinda "Gangster/stylish/rustic/detailed/just all around cool" spot every photogapher likes to have close by, but sadly I didn't have a model so I had to step in and be the photographer and the person in front of the camera. Sorry, I would have had Grace be my model, but she was at work:(
I've been telling myself for like 9 months now that I want to go down to church and photograph someone. I didn't know I would get desperate enough to photograph myself, but what can I say I was desperate.
Pay attention to scenery around me, like all the vines, chipped paint, brush, the red brick and everything else that makes this building so unique and an awesome spot. Its my secret little building, in my little town. lol. Shh, don't tell anyone about it lol. Just kidding, I might share it if you ask lol.
BTW-The church was built in like 1850 or around there. It's an insanely old building. I have to give credit to Becca too, I was bossing her around during the whole time we were there telling her move over here, focus like this, click the bottom, lol. She was a great help!
Don't you just love the red brick and red chipped paint. Mmm...love it!
Notice the red door and the pipping coming out of the builing. Haha classic!!
Mmmm...more red brick!!
I deffinetly like this focal point better then the above focal point. lol.
See how the sticks are kinda making a frame around me. Thought that was kinda cool!
Did I mention I love this old building??? I do!!
The building still looks just as fabulous in Black and White.

Faith Noel: Close ups!
I know, I've taken waaaaayy to long to get more pictures of her up on my blog. I've been a slacker!! Please forgive me?? Anyways here are some of Faith that I took today, while I was babysitting her, and spending some quality sister time together lol.
Isn't she a little doll baby!!
Of course we had to take one with her best friend, her "pacifer".
She's slowly learning how to get her thumb. Aww
She just couldn't hold the smile in any long.
Ok..the smiles gone, but hey she still looks just as cute!! I am going to have to find out how she does that lol.
My favorite this may be my fav
I like this one alot too.

...what it's like having 8 brothers til you have 8 brothers lol. Some may say having 8 brothers is insane, it probably would be in most people's lives, but that's reality for me. I have 8 awesome brothers! Their so much fun to pick on and have fun with. Like having wrestling matches (lol of course I always win), Doing cart wheels in the living room (No lie lol), getting into big debates over what color my phone is lol, or if white is a color, or when they buy me expensive jewely (such as pink sapphire earrings lol). Those are not even scratching the surface of all the fun we have! Not only do I have fun with them they also look out for me. It's like I have 5 dads sometimes lol. Which I don't mind!
I couldn't imagine being an only child...I'd probably, most deffinetly, go insane if I was lol. For all those girls that don't have brothers, Oh boy!!! YOUR MISSING OUT ON SO MUCH.
Most of these are just random, candid shots of the guys, which I particularly like candid shots. But yes, these are all my amazing brothers. :) :)
John (youngest brother)
Luke. Typical "Luke" face. lol.
David. He is the birthday boy today. Happy Birthday David!
Timothy (on his 18th b-day)
Samuel (or Sammy boy, as I call him lol) This picture is SO "a samuel" picture
Daniel (second oldest brother)
Joseph (oldest brother) Sorry ladies, he's already taken lol.
Eric. He's the guy in the middle lol. Brother-in-law, so obviously he's married too lol.

Ellie's winter preview!
Not only was it below freezing for their winter senior session-Ellie had boots with heels on(how awesome it that). Come on, who is that talented that they can go hiking up and down hills (very steep hills, lol) and over rocks, ice, and fallen tree limbs etc..without falling ONCE??! NOT ME!!!! I could barely stay on my feet with normal boots on, lol. I was quite amused by how untalented I was at hiking in the snow lol.
Check out the preview! I will have the rest on the proof site in about a week.

You can see the snow in this one. Even though it looks like rain lol

Megan & Jason: Married!!
The first time I saw Megan and Jason get out of the car, for the engagement shoot, in the back of my head I was thinking "They are such a cute couple, and I get to photography them! yay!". Then when they started to tell me more about their wedding, I was so excited to be photographing it! Their wedding was so fun, relaxed, and everyone was so friendly:). I felt right at home, which makes photographing them alot more fun then it already was. Thanks for having me capture your day!
The rings!
Flowers..they were so pretty!
I really like the reflection of the dress;)
The detail on the dress was so pretty. I LOVED her dress!
The guys!
This one cracks me up. I love how the little guy on the left jumped up.
The girls! It was like 30 degrees for their wedding, and we still managed to get some great shots outside. Let's just say it was a very quick stop outside tho. It was FREEEEZZZING!!!
Jason!
Megan! Breath taking..
If you look close you can see the front of her, in the reflection. LOVE it!
The beautiful married couple!
