She said YES!

Whitney is a friend from highschool, and we lost touch for a few years. We were reunited through Facebook and she asked us to take her engagement pictures. I'm so excited for her! I met up with Whitney and James on a beautiful fall day at Albertson's Park. The fall day was a bit chilly, but had the most beautiful colors. We walked through the back parts of the park to find exclusive spots and I love how they the photos turned out. And can I just say what an adorable couple these two are!

Whitney and James met during a theatre production. They both are stars! And they are so in love.  James and Whitney were so cooperative and fun to work with. What a beautiful ring too! Not only are James and Whitney getting married, but they are also having a baby soon. How exciting to have two events coming up so soon. These two are so in love and are perfect for each other. They kept smiling at each other, and were naturally romantic posers. We are so excited to have the honor to take their wedding photos in June. We can't wait to celebrate their special day with them. Congrats Whitney and James!

(I just had to include this one, shows how perfect they are for each other.)

(I love this photo, how romantic they are).

What do you get when you add red with black?

The Polisso family! For Halloween they decided to have a color scheme and match each other that way. Very Cute!
Andrea was Red Riding Hood
Mary was a vampire
Amber a devilish angel
Maria was a devil
Alexis was a ladybug
and Gabriel was a vampire.

We went up to the train depot with my fun red and black chair (to match the theme) and did some fun fall photos. All the costumes were great and everyone was having a good time.... except Gabriel. Gabriel was not wanting his picture taken that day. Poor guy. Alexis was such a ham and was constantly posing. What a little star she is. Overall a great photoshoot and we even got a few half smiles out of Gabriel.

The cutest bug I've ever seen

Annabelle..... what a cutie. Need I say more? Katie brought Annabelle out to the Old State Penitentary in her halloween costume for fall and halloween pictures. Annabelle was the cutest lady bug I've ever seen. Katie and I treked through the grounds of the Old State Penitentary to find this beautiful field of .... dead grass. Yes that's right yellow crisp dead grass. Well after searching and carrying all of are props everywhere we didn't find it. hahahaha. So we settled for the foothills which I must say provided a great back drop. Annabelle was so smiley and happy unless she had to sit in her stroller. What a precious angel she is. We parked our butts in the middle of a hiking trail.. but Annabelle got a lot of compliments by the hikers trailing around us.

We then changed Annabelle to her fall clothes and went to the Bishop's house. Annabelle was so excited about the chance to run around. Katie is such a great mom and loves her baby so much. If Annabelle started to cry we sang "Itsy Bitsy Spider"... which I had forgotten the words to for a bit. I think we sang that song 10 times to make that little girl smile in the end. And let me just say it worked.

Congrats to Claire and Jeff

Congratulations Claire and Jeff!! Claire and Jeff got married on October 8th at the beautiful Club House. Claire and Jeff were instantly gracious and friendly to us... made us feel like we had known them forever. They were both so accomodating and cooperative throughout the day. I must say that Claire has two of the cutest boys I've ever seen. Caleb her oldest was very friendly and has a little model in him. He was very excited for his mom and loved on her all day. He was very cooperative in getting his picture taken all day. Caleb is also a great dancer. He even ballroom danced with the little girls. Claire you better watch out you got a ladies man in the making. Carter is a cutie as well. Carter is her youngest and it was fun watching him run around and play with the balloons. Claire and Jeff couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day or a better group of people to spend the day with.

Claire looked amazing! Her dress was gorgeous, I loved all the beading on the front and back of her dress. Claire and Jeff's colors were pink and black. Claire's dress matched perfectly. Her dress had a black sash that also had the intricate floral beading from the front on it and it split down the middle in the front. In between the split there was a black panel. Very classy dress and Claire looked fantastic in it. All the bridesmaids wore black dresses but got to provide their own flare with the individual styles they wore. What a fun group of people! Everyone involved was having a great time and knew how to party. Claire and Jeff are very lucky to have so many people who love them. This wedding was full of love and excitement. Thanks for sharing your special day with us!

Quote from above pictures: When asked what I loved most about life, I smiled and said you.

Hope you two live a long and happy life together.
