Little Baby Reece

I photographed Michele and Randy's wedding in April of 06 and they have quickly become good friends of mine! I was so thrilled to find out that they were pregnant. Reece came earlier than expected, but is doing wonderful! I was over there 2 weeks ago and we were able to do some great pictures of this little man!!!

Isn't he cute? Congratulations both of you.... he is adorable!!!

The Reister Family

This is the last post until after christmas!!! I am about to put away the computer and enjoy my family and start getting ready for Christmas, my favorite time of the year!!!

But before I shut it all down I had to post a recent family session that we just did; Meet the Reister Family! Maria called me up awhile ago and said that she read an article in the newspaper about me awhile ago and since then has wanted to do family pictures! Sadly, I don't know what article she was talking about and I'm hoping to know someday, but it makes me happy that they called.

We did the session around the Chandler area and the pictures turned out great! Here are a few of my favorites.

I hope you all have a wonderful wonderful Christmas!!!! Enjoy your time with family!! I will talk to you all soon!!!

Aaryn and Mike

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Last Sunday Mike and Aaryn got married and I had such a great time with them! We started the day getting ready at the Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak. We then took pictures around there as well! We found some really neat places and just had a great time.

The ceremony and reception were at Aunt Chilada's Restaurant and it was a beautiful small wedding with yummy yummy food!!

We spent a lot of the day with portraits because Aaryn and Mike wanted a lot of fun pictures with their wedding party, we also had some special requests like the jumping picture and swing picture! They turned out great and I was very impressed with the bridal parties jumping abilities!!

We had a great time. Enjoy the pictures! This is the last wedding of the season for me and it was a great one!! I'm looking forward to next year!!

The Joiners and Allens

My sister has twins and her sister-in-law has twins as well, so we have a lot of twins running around! So we decided to do a family shoot of both of the families so their grandparents could have some good pictures of all the kids together! We had a lot of fun.

The whole idea started with this one picture.... my sisters father in law is a huge Redskins fan and they wanted to do a picture of all of them in Red Skins gear for him!

Melanie and Ryan

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

On Thanksgiving weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to photography Melanie and Ryan's wedding. This was a special wedding to me because i've known Melanie for about 6 or 7 years now and she is an awesome awesome lady! When she told me she was getting married I told her I had to be their photographer and they agreed!!!

The wedding was beautiful and filled with Love and God. They got married at their church in Arizona and the ceremony was at Freestone Park. Of course I cried, tears of happiness:):).

We started the day at Melanie's house. Melanie LOVES her Coffee, so I thought this shot was perfect for her!

I'm Back!!!!

Wow, what a week!!! We finally made it back from our cruise and it is good to be home! I admit I did get homesick, probably because I am so used to having internet access and phone, but for an entire week I had no way to communicate with the outside world! It was nuts!

We had a great time and had so much fun with our friends Mary Beth and Ryan Tyson.

I wanted to post a few pictures up because Mary Beth already put some up on her blog, so check out hers to see a few more!

Now, I have to let you all know that most of these pictures are with a point and shoot camera and are not good quality. There are a few good ones mixed in with the bunch, but just a pre-warning!!

On the Way to Miami and the first few minutes on the cruise boat!

A horrible picture with my point and shoot, but we are leaving Miami.

After the cruise we had a day to relax in Miami so we headed out to the hammocks at our hotel and made phone calls to our family. It was fun.

Being professional photographers, we don't really ever get pictures done of us, so for formal night we decided to get our pictures done. It was fun... MB scanned this in for me:)
