Senior Photo Session - Tori

140B 

Meet Tori - a terrific young lady who is going to be a Senior this Fall.  We had a great time Tuesday evening shooting her senior photos.  She was so easy going and is such a beautiful girl - inside and out!! I have just a few of my favorites in the Class of 2010 folder on the left.   I will keep updating the folder as I continue to photograph seniors.  And just a little info. I have got several gals on the calendar for the upcoming months but no guys!!  Why is that?  I even have a brand new uber cool prop that I bought just for the guys and it ROCKS. But I guess you won't see it for a while. lol. 

Have a blessed day and THANKS Tori for the great session.

Andy and Deby tied the Knot!

114 

Yesterday I promised that I would blog more about Andy and Deby. So here goes:  I am someone who believes  that God has a plan for our lives before we even make an entrance into the world.  So to hear how He orchestrated Deby and Andy's meeting  reaffirmed to me that God has a plan for all of us.   Deby is from Bern, Switzerland and way back in 1983 a family from Berne, IN hosted a Bern, Swiss student on an exchange program.  Over the years the previous student came to visit friends that she made here in Berne, IN.  Last August she brought Deby with her and one evening both attended a 6oth birthday party.  Andy was at the same party. =)

At that time in Andy's life he wasn't looking for love and was blindsided when he met Deby at the party.  He and Deby went for a walk later that week and he knew during that walk that Deby would be his wife someday.  Someday came very quickly. Deby soon had to be on a plane back to Switzerland but knew that her heart was here in tiny little Berne, IN.  She quickly made arrangements to come back to the States knowing that Andy had stolen her heart!!  Now they are married and I couldn't be happier for them.

Throughout the day - during the ceremony, toasts etc. I heard one phrase over and over, "I've never seen Andy this happy before."  Deby makes him sooo happy.  It's just so awesome.

Deby was truly a princess bride. She was stunning and I loved her BLing!  She had the best jewelry and shoes. (You know I love shoes!)  Her bridesmaids all had gold shoes which rocked!  However, they confessed that their feet were numb by the time the ceremony was over.

I was laughing so much at the reception.  Deby and her sisters are dancing queens!  I loved meeting them and was even a little sad that they had to leave us to go back to Switzerland. 

Thanks Deby and Andy for having me do your photos.  I know that you've got a beautiful life ahead.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Shhhh sleeping baby!

146

So precious!! This is baby Samuel. He is the sweet son of one of my former wedding couples, Matt and Sarah.  He came this week for his first photo shoot. He is so tiny. I love it when babies are so new that they don't quite fit into their skin yet.   Sam was so good the entire time and didn't make a peep.  It was so great to meet him and to see Matt and Sarah in the role of parents.  Thanks guys. ;)

Have a great afternoon everyone. I have a consultation with a bride-to-be this evening and then I'm going to be working on an uber cool prop for senior photos. If you have been here in the last 2 weeks then you have seen it in my driveway. I really need to get it photo ready asap! It's driving me crazy sitting there. lol.

Much love to all,

Amy

James and Erin are Mr. and Mrs.

239 

It was a rainy 4th of July here but it didn't put a damper on Erin and James' wedding!  It was a fun wedding from start to finish.  I can't say enough about how sweet this couple is.  Erin is a Sheriff Deputy which made for some fun, playful photos at the reception hall! (Don't laugh Kristin I don't like guns.) It also made for some great commentary during the toast from her twin sister Kristin.

There were some really fun moments throughout the day.  One being during cermony.  When the couple kissed during the wedding the attendants had some 4th of July noise makers.  Everyone jumped of course... me included.  Yikes! 

I've got some of my favorites from the wedding on now and hope you enjoy looking at them.  Have a blessed night.

Sweet Baby Jaden

142 

I had the sweetest little family here last week.  Josh, Rosie and Jaden came for his 3 month photo shoot and a few family shots also.  He was such a good baby and has the sweetest blue eyes. I'm partial to blue eyes because I have them and so does my little Izzy.  I've got a few of my favorites on the left side in the baby section. Thanks Josh and Rosie for coming down from Fort Wayne. I look forward to doing more photos in the future with the horses.   Enjoy your sneak peak of the session and give Jaden a hug from me.

Here is what else I am working on today.  I've got to get Erin and James awesome wedding posted for you - plus a teeny tiny baby, Samuel.  I'm hoping to get some editing done this afternoon before I have my session with 3 year old Meredith. Check back soon for more photos.

Have a great afternoon.

Lisa and Derk at Minnetrista in Muncie

I love doing engagement photos!! They are so much fun and I love it when I am introduced to a fresh new location.  Derk and Lisa met me at a beautiful place in Muncie on Thursday. It's called Minnestrista.  I have a wedding to shoot there later this month so this was a perfect way to be able to see the grounds.   Thanks Derk and Lisa. I had a great time with you guys and am looking forward to the wedding next Spring.   I've got a few of my favorites on the left in the engagement section.  Enjoy.
