Kirk Cameron is cool...check out this video...

Chore Duty.

We have quite the little helper.
We find that if we have her clean things she is happy.
I'm not sure the driveway really needed to be cleaned...
but who's going to argue? Not us...

A Beautiful Day.

A few weeks ago I had the privilage of shooting a gorgeous wedding in Wichita.
The Church was perfect.
The weather was perfect.
The bride and groom were fun.
It was such a pleasant day...all NINE hours of it!
Yes, it was a long day and i was exhausted when i got home, but i captured so many beautiful pictures that it was well worth it to add to my portfolio.
I had a hard time choosing which to post, so if you really want to see more, you can head to my Facebook business page.

(*pictures are not in order, so i'll go backwards...)


The reception was held at the Crown Uptown.
Let me just say BEAUTIFUL.
Collin and I even had time to sit and relax and enjoy a WONDERFUL buffet of yummy foods, cake and punch. Collin is my 'grip' (photographer's term), which basically means he carries my bag and hands me things, so i think he was more than excited for a BIG meal!



We headed to the Wichita Downtown Park after the wedding.
Can you guess what we rode in to get there? (scroll down)





The Bridesmaids.



The Groomsmen. Aren't they a studly looking bunch? :)



Meet the Groom.





The PARTY BUS! And yes, i got to ride in it...
An interesting experience for a 8 month pregnant woman ;)




St. Thomas Aquinas was the church. Beautiful!


The Bride.













This is one of my favorite pics.
And there you have it. A busy, but rewarding day! I think the best part of being a photographer is seeing the images after they have been finished and knowing what has been accomplished. Today the mother of the bride specifically called me just to say waht a wonderful job I did.
So sweet.
That makes it all worth it :)

Craftshow.

This past Saturday I went with a friend to the Hillsboro Craftshow.
This is officially only my second year to go, but i can guarantee you i will be
going every year from now on if schedules allow!
I think i like the browsing more than the buying.
My favorite booth from last year called 'Vintage Details' was there again, so I bought a couple of items to add to my 'red' collection. Give me a booth that has unique & stylish antiques and the colors black and red and I'm there!




This is actually a framed chalkboard. Love it!!!

Very Cute!

Encouraging Word.

I came across these verses today in my quiet time. They encouraged me and I hope they encourage you...

"As for God, His way is PERFECT
The word of the Lord is FLAWLESS.
He is a SHIELD for all who take refuge in Him.
For who is GOD besides the Lord?
And who is the ROCK except our God?
It is God who arms me with STRENGTH and makes my way PERFECT"

2 Samuel 22:31-33
