| Carly | Senior Class of 2017 | Decatur IL |

Check out Carly’s senior portraits! I was so excited when Carly and her dad came in to design her session and she started talking about what she had in mind for her portraits and wanting to feature a few things that were important to her like her church. Well what better way to feature that than to have part of the session at the church! GT church is lovely outside so it was a beautiful location for her session. And since she wanted a little water too we headed over to Rock Springs to finish out her session.

This lovely lady is currently in Army National Guard basic training so we want to wish her luck, hope it’s going well and thank her for her choice to serve our country!

| Jill + Danny | Southside Country Club Wedding | Decatur IL |

When I saw Ann (Jill’s mom) walking up to me at last year’s Bridal Show I was so excited!! I learned she was there with Jill to plan her wedding and was thrilled when they decided to have me be a part of another of their family weddings (I photographed Jill’s sister, Maggi’s wedding not long after moving to the Decatur area and went on to photograph the Stewart family growth until they relocated to Arkansas).

Even better, once we got into planning I came to find out that Jill’s step mom was my Mary Kay director, MaryAnn! It’s hard to believe we’ve already been in this area for 6 years but having repeat clients and ‘small world’ moments like this make me so happy we are really becoming a part of this community and I love it!

It was great to get to know Jill and her now husband, Danny and see many familiar faces on their wedding day. They planed a GORGEOUS sunset wedding at Southside Country Club.

| Burns Family Portraits | Decatur IL Family Photographer |

Are you guys ready to see two absolutely adorable little boys and their family?!?! I’m so excited that it’s time to share the Burn’s family portraits with you. Dana won one of our auction packages recently and she was so excited for some sunset portraits and though clouds literally rained on our parade the first day we had her set we were able to get her in one a beautiful evening at the Scovill Zoo.

I am absolutely in LOVE with the Nash Family’s Session! Not only did they invite me once again to photograph at their beautiful home and family land (with this amazing old barn) but we had perfect weather AND even included a spunky little piglet in the most adorable red wagon. Like what is not to love about all this?!?!

You might remember Rebekah’s senior session this year (if not, you can take a look at some of her images in our senior model post and our album design post). I think the time around senior year is the perfect time for family portraits before seniors leave the nest and set out on their own and change the dynamic of your home! This is sort of the last year they are under your wing in your home before embarking on their own lives.

And the best news of all…. I LOVE this pine tree lane SO much that we are planning our November fall/Christmas family Limited Edition sessions right there!!! How about red antique couch, adorable blankets and maybe even some Christmas ornaments hanging in those trees!?!?! It’s going to be awesome (but space will be limited, so we are already booking NOW).
