Shelley and Drew - Married

Spring is here! Wedding season has begun! It's just a great time all around.

First wedding of the year - Shelley and Drew. The wedding took place in Paxton, IL with a reception following in Rantoul, IL. I have been blessed to be the recent family photographer for this adorable couple. You can see their recent engagement and family pics on my website.


Shelley and Drew are always so much fun and so willing to try anything for a great shot, and this day was no exception. They had a fun, energetic wedding party that kept me laughing all day. Even battling spurts of rain, the party atmosphere just kept going. Their families were extremely nice and the whole atmosphere made for a total enjoyable experience for me, and I hope for them as well. The flower girl and ringbearer, the couples children, were too cute for words as you will see below. Check out some of my favorites from the day!








All of the bridesmaids were so beautiful! I have to give a shout out to my sister: the tan beauty in the front row. 









This has made my list of favorite all time wedding photos I have taken. I'm seriously in love with it!






I think he was done with pictures. :)






The poor flower girl passed out before the ceremony was even over.












Check out these awesome table centerpieces. One of the couples' uncles did this. I think they were spectacular!





Thank you Shelley and Drew for allowing me to be a part of this day. It was so great to see two hearts joining as one - and you guys were a blast to hang out with!

Dani - 6 month pictures

Check out this little princess! This was my 3rd visit with Dani. You can see her newborn pics on my website and her 3 months pics in the holiday portrait section of my blog. This time we decided to spice up this session with the girly theme and ended it with her John Deere wagon. I had so much fun and she was such a natural in front of the camera. :) I can't wait for her one year pictures. Mom and Dad promised me they would join in next time. Check out her adorable photos below!

Wedding Season has begun!

This Saturday is my first wedding of the year and I'm so excited. I have been itching to get out and photograph more, and looking forward to "try out" some of new ideas with such a cute and willing couple. Check out a few of Shelley and Drew's engagement pictures I took from this last fall.







Make sure to check back soon to check out their wedding pictures.
