Finally have time to update! Senior Portraits: Robbie Mast & Wedding Portraits: Joel and Bethany

Okay friends I’ve been crazy busy here this summer and not everything made it’s way to the blog. Well, I’m finally somewhat feeling more on track, and though it’s after 1am, I found this is the only moment I have to update a few,  so here they are.  Let’s start with Joel & Bethany…

Joel & Bethany had the most beautiful day of sunshine for their “homegrown” outdoor wedding in Bethany’s parents backyard. It was a lovely day filled with friends and family … some old, some now new. What a joy it is to photograph the wedding of someone you knew when they were only a child! They were such a fun couple to photograph, because they so freely expressed the passionate innocense of their lovestory. Ahhhhh….  my kind of couple!  So here’s to Joel and his beautiful wife Bethany! May you be ever so richly blessed as you share and express your love, showing others the way to be consumed with love and cherish it so tenderly as to hold onto it’s innocense. You two are truly an inspiration and I was honored to capture these moments of your love story. To  Joel & Bethany!

 

 

Next up is Robbie Mast. Robbie is the son of my bestest friend ever and I had such a great time on this shoot! Well, how could we not have fun with Robbie’s dad along? Tim, you crack me up, you crack your son up, and I love the images I got of him trying hard NOT to laugh. So glad you came along for the shoot, but next time, let’s all just skip the pancakes, deal? I really can’t decide which are my “favorite images” because there is so much I love about so many of them. But the absolutely beautiful contrasting colors of some of these win my heart.

Incidently, Robbie has just been nominated for Homecoming King! Congrats Robbie! Hope you win!

Engagement Session: Mykel and Jacob!

what a beautiful day it was for this session. My clients picked an amazing venue for their portraits and i’m so honored to be shooting their wedding in November as well!  I hope you enjoy the images we’ve gottten here.

Senior Photos: Senior Rep – Evan Day

Things have been crazy busy here at CWP with a lot of out of town work, too much to show it all at once, but I do have some updates for you all! First is our senior rep Evan Day! Evan is a an amazing golfer and we’ve had to squeeze his session into two parts to fit around his golf schedule, because he’s been in several tournaments over the summer! Look out Tiger Woods! Here’s a few from his session.

Wedding: James & Angie Mills

Many things can go wrong on a wedding day, but probably the most feared is rain on the outdoor wedding of your dreams.  It took a lot of faith to keep believing for sunshine as we stood holding umbrellas over our heads on July 11th! But faith prevailed and the sun shone brightly, it was a beautiful wedding indeed.  i have a  few sneak peeks for everyone..

Engagement Photos: Bethany & Joel

Bethany and Joel are about the sweetest couple I’ve ever met! I just loved working with them..  they weren’t shy about kissing in front of the camera for great romance images and I LOVE THAT!!!  I can’t wait to shoot their Wedding in September!! Enjoy a few of their favorite images….

New “Go Live!” Galleries are up!!

I just had to try it out with this senior too. (thanks Melanie for being such a great test subject!)

Thanks for checking out Melanie’s images! Be sure to leave her a comment!

Crazy busy!!!

Sorry it’s been forever since I’ve updated everyone. It’s been CRAZY BUSY around here. So many out of town clients! I LOVE destination shoots! Nothing so far that needs a passport, but I’m about due for a new one cause I can see the day coming for one of those awesome “destination weddings!”

With that said, I haven’t been able to post everyone’s images to the blog, but will be trying to update the actual website after I have a few fixes made to it with my host. For now, in keeping with the “crazy” that my life and world has been lately…. Here are my FAVORITE crazy shots with Melanie Seeley. She came just last night to finish the 2nd half of her senior shoot cause we ran out of time the day we did location work. A brave willing soul, she let me try some new things… here are some results:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Arrgghh!! Is there a techie in the house?

I just realized that not all of Amy’s photos loaded….  my apologies….  AGAIN.  Sigh.. Some days are just more  frustrating than others and after all this, I think I need an asprin.

Amy, you were such a patient model as we tried to get this shot,  I had to make sure this loaded for you!
