Happy Valentine’s Day!

TJ & Brieanna | after session

I had the distinct pleasure of photographing these two lovebirds on a chilly January day. Just the sweetest two people who put up with all kinds of woods-walkin’ and finger-freezin’. Such a special time in their lives and I was so happy to have been able to capture their relationship. Thanks again guys, it was a privilege to get to know you better and make some pictures with ya!

Bryan & Megan | engagement

These two lovelies ventured out into the snow with me for a perfect wintery engagement session. It really was a beautiful day! So happy to have gotten to explore the outdoors with these two.

The Zobrist Family

This was truly one of my favorite family sessions to date. Kristi is a fabulous photographer and knew exactly what colors would look beautiful on film. And that baby! They just don’t get much cuter than that

James & Chassi | wedding

What a sweet wedding day. The skies were grey and foggy and full or rain and mist but that did not stop these two from just radiating love and joy. I don’t know the last time I teared up at a wedding as often as at this one! Their vows to eachother were beautiful and their love so pure. Truly enjoyed this January wedding!
