the wagar family

last week i had the opportunity to photograph the wagar family. they have recently had a little one and he is a pure miracle since he was born 2 months early and weighed in the 4 lb. arena.



since it is around the holidays, we had to do some christmas photos and who can resist a sleeping baby in a santa hat?





while mom and dad were holding baby, i could not help but think of my little one. was he ever this small with such delicate features?





lately, i have really been excited about storyboards. i love how they tell a story. i love the layout and i love how the colors pop against the black background. as i was taking photos of the wagar family, i could not help but get excited about their storyboards. [of course, i do not have one for my own family but hey, that is a different story all together!]



and just mom and dad.....



thank you wagar family for allowing me to capture the beginning of your family. it was a delight to be a part of your holiday season.

tim & lynn

i was very fortunate to photograph tim and lynn a couple of weeks back. i can definitely say that their love for each other is so evident that a camera was not even necessary to see the bond the two of them share for one another. even though there was some serious shots, this photo shoot definitely has to be one of my favorites in a long time. we were all relaxed and the laughter was abundant.

thank you tim and lynn for letting me spend a lovely fall afternoon with you.

on father's day, i had the opportunity to photograph sarah and grant. an adorable couple. deeply in love. surrounded by so many people who love them. standing firm in a foundation of faith.

it was beautiful. it was heart warming. as a matter of fact, during the slide show at the reception i even got all teary eyed and i hardly even know them!

so. here is to sarah and grant. may your hearts stay one forever.

thank you.

there is one thing i believe i love more than photography and that is bartering.

hmm...weird statement to put under a photograph of a beautiful sleeping baby girl, huh?

let me explain. i work with this amazingly, talented and friendly woman who is just purely gifted behind the sewing machine and once i found out i was pregnant with cooper, i knew that i would love to have dark brown and lime green baby bedding. well. as you can imagine. these colors are not that easy to come by so....

i made a deal with my co-worker. handmade baby bedding in exchange i would take photographs of her new one-year old granddaughter.

and even though her end ran a bit smoother than mine. i am so pleased with this photograph that i believe it was all worth it.

plus. it is just fun being near those babies!

just as jeremy and i celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary this year, so did the wegner's. the wegner's, however, celebrated by renewing their wedding vows.

the ceremony took place at a charming home in the outskirts of lawrence. it was a cozy setting with close family and friends and their two children as the best man and the maid-of-honor.

thank you for letting me capture this beautiful moment for you and your family. may you have 10 more years of love and happiness.
