Bell family pictures

These pictures were taken at the Star Mill - an antique store with endless possibilities. Old barns, antique chairs and even this fabulous old bus!

As you can see, there were a lot of people in the shoot, so there are a lot of pictures here too! We got so many pictures that I totally love - this family was so patient and full of great ideas.


This little cutie was so tired... but she still had a few smiles left for us.





Thank you so much - this was an awesome shoot and I enjoyed meeting all of you!

Azlynn pictures

This lovely little lady is getting baptized and her mom wanted pictures with her white dress. The sun was going down in this beautiful orchard and it was an amazing setting. These are some of my favorite pictures (it was really hard to narrow it down!)







I put together this announcement for the baptism and I love it very much.
Thanks Aleah and Azlynn - you guys are seriously awesome!

Baby Fallyn

You may remember this perfectly lovely family from last year. Well they have a new addition!

For being only 6 days old, she was sure awake a lot. It was OK though, because she had such beautiful blue eyes.

Fallyn is so lucky to have 3 great older siblings - they were so loving and gentle with her.




And one of my new favorite pictures of all time...

Thanks so much Christel - I sure enjoy you guys!

Sudar Family Pictures


Even though we had equipment problems, this family were such great sports and we got some awesome shots of them. Never fear - glitchy camera problems have been solved! There were a lot of pictures of this family that I really liked and wanted to post here.

We thought the contrast of the fancy-dress outfits and the beat-down backgrounds would be interesting. I really like it! What do you think?




There were so many great backgrounds and photo-places in this little area, I can't wait to go back!

Jurgens family pictures

My latest family shoot was a blast - we had a lucky break in the weather and we went to this fantastic abandoned house where I have been dying to shoot. Brick walls, old sheds and even a few friendly horses made for some great backgrounds.

This family is adorable and I love them (they are friends of mine and live one street over). Their kids are so beautiful and photogenic. The boys were really interested in the horses but only from a distance.

Their baby boy is a red-headed sweet heart. And since he moved much slower than his brother, he was easier to get pictures of! ;)

The picture on the left is one of my all-time favorites - it captures their personality just right. Thanks you guys, I had a great time with you!

Jue family pictures

I loved this family, they were lots of fun. The kids had already had a really long day but they were so patient and just did whatever I asked them to. In the midst of all the rain, rain and more rain, we miraculously got a few clear hours and were able to get some great pictures.

Rob & Andrea engagements

This shoot was so much fun! We tried out this awesome abandoned house location that I discovered a few months ago. It looks scary on the outside but it makes a great background. I am really happy with it.

And lets not forget Rob and Andrea. These are their engagement pictures and they are a really fun couple. They were totally willing to try any crazy ideas. The only hard part was that Rob is probably more than a foot taller than Andrea... always a challenge.


By strange coincidence, Rob is the brother of Nick in the post right after this one. What a year of weddings for this family!

Beautiful, beautiful girl. Don't you love the random gust of wind? I wonder how I can work this out every time I do pictures...
