I'll be back....

To those of you who have checked this blog out from time to time- I must apologize. I haven't made any posts in a couple months, and it's definately not for lack of anythign to post about! Quite the contrary, I have been overwhelmed with awesome customers! I haven't had the time to post any updates because I have simply been swamped. But.... change is coming.

Over the next month I will be redesigning my blog (as well as sharing some big news) with you guys. And one of my new year's resolutions is to update this thing more.

So stay tuned...

Won't you be my neighbor?

Okay- so Mr. Rogers isn't around anymore. But I made it into our local newspaper in the Know Your Neighbors section last night. Check it out! Click to see it bigger.


A local reporter seen me putting up a display at Northland Mall in Sterling, IL. He interviewed me for the section. Since we're on the topic- here is the display. If you're in the area, go check it out (BONUS - there are $20 Print coupons on the display!)

Senior : Isaac

This kid was awesome. He was very laid back and easy to work with! Thanks Isaac.

This is one of those happy accident pictures. I forgot to turn off the flash that I set on the ground.

Family: Hermeyer

The weather was perfect- thank goodness because these guys had this planned for awhile. And getting this many people together takes a bit of pre-planning!

Fun group!

Portraits : Andi and family

I've done Andi's pictures a few times now. She loves her dogs- and I love that she loves her dogs.
I think the one god is finally calming down a little- she was a bit of a nutball the first time I met her! I hope to have many more sessions with these guys in the future!

Blitz - the spaz

Max - the calmer, much easier one to photograph

Family : The Moreno Kids

The kids are bundles of energy. I won't lie- photographing a couple kids together this young takes a great deal of patience... and bribery.

Kristen + Curtis : Married

These guys have an awesome story. They met while on vacation (she's from here and he's from Alabama). They fell in love and some time later- the wedding day! The chemistry between these two is amazing. The had a wonderful wedding and beautiful reception. I hope you guys are settled in down there in Alabama!





That's a penny taped in her shoe

Karen + Rob : Married

These 2 were married on their farm- and they had such a nice setting for it. The day was beautiful (although the night brought a nasty storm!)
Here's some favs








They are also expecting a baby soon! Congrats!
