My Girl, My Muse

No matter how busy I am with taking pictures of others, I always make time to take pictures of, well . . . my baby.  She’s really not what others would consider a baby, but she’s my baby.  Little Miss Kara is my 2 ½ year old daughter.  She is beautiful on the inside and out.  There is really no amount of words that could describe the love that I have for this child.  She’s my everything, and she has been my photographic muse, since the day she was born.

All Dogs Go to Heaven

Rachel and Cody have been together, since Rachel’s junior year, in high school.  At only 4 weeks old, Cody was a gift from Rachel’s parents.  Cody has been a dependable friend to Rachel for almost half of her life. So, a few weeks ago, when Rachel found out that Cody had a tumor on his heart and did not have much longer to live, she asked if I would take some pictures of Cody for her.  What a wonderful way to celebrate the life of a true friend and create some final happy memories together.  I was all too happy to take them.  Although, Cody does not have much more time on this Earth, he will spend the rest of his days being loved and cared for by Rachel’s mom, Diane, who has cared for him, since Rachel got married.  Thank you for letting me be a part of this very touching memory.

Post Engagement Pictures

Jen and Brian should look familiar, because I was lucky enough to be asked to photograph their wedding, this past September.  Jen has been a big supporter of my photography from the very beginning, so I asked Jen if she and Brian would mind doing some promotional “engagement” shots for me . . . even though they’re already married :).

Jen and Brian are just one of those couples who have fun together and genuinely enjoy each others company.  I had such a great time with them, despite the cold.  I think I was laughing just about the whole time we were shooting.  It wasn’t until I started editing the photographs that I realized that I had caught some really tender, loving moments between these two.  Enjoy!
