Josh- HIgh School Senior

I was so excited to book a guy senior this year! Josh has so much to look forward too and will be so successful! He has a basketball scholarship waiting for him at whatever college he chooses(he's 6'8"!). He will be studying pre-med. And, he loves music, which you will see later! He was so relaxed and fun to photograph, such a natural. Mom and little sister came along and I got a kick out of lil sis trying to make him laugh by dancing behind my back!



















Josh, it was great to hang out with you for the day!

Happy Halloween!

I am soooo proud of myself because I am early for once for a holiday! I actually have my kids costumes ready for Halloween and not panicking the night before like I have done in the past. Who me? Panic? Well not really panic but procrasinate. BIG TIME. Well, not this year and I can hear relief from my mother as she is reading this! So here is my beautiful Tinker Bell and my handsome dragon! Happy Halloween!











Get me out of this thing!!!!!

Demi- LeRoy High School

As most of you know, Demi is my assistant and helps me on most photo shoots. She has been with me since the beginning of my business, always willing to be my model and help me out when I want to try new things. While I am so excited for her to venture out in the world of college (possibly Missouri or Kansas!) I will miss her so much! Good luck Demi!









I won a contest with this photo!

Labor Day Weekend

Anytime we have a three day weekend, we pack up the kids (and most of our house) and take off to Vandalia where Jimmy's parents have nice quiet place on the lake. We enjoy fishing, cruising on the boat, swimming, eating and of course good company. Some home madewine too! The first few pictures are of Connor and his grandma, Fran. Fran, along with Dean, have been best friends with Jimmy's parents ever since Jimmy was little so they are like family to us. It is always so relaxing to go to the lake, a nice little get away with babysitters! Who can complain about that?

Morgan, High School Senior-Tri-Valley High School

I was granted the pleasure of photographing Morgan for her high school senior pictures. She is just gorgeous and the camers LOVES her! I may be a bit biased, after all, she is my cousin! We had a lot of fun going to the different locations, especially the ones downtown. We were stopping traffic and cars were pulling over to watch us!

















These pictures caused a stir on the streets! I love how she rocked her red converse shoes!











My schedule is filling up fast, so please contact me if you are looking for a session this fall.

The Balloon.......

Papa Howard took Finley to Bloomington for an errand and came back with this beloved balloon. She had so much fun running around with it and watching it sail in the air. Sadly, shortly after these photos were taken the balloon went to balloon heaven in the sky. It was so tired from all the love Fin had given it and detached itself from the string and soared away in the sky.




I thought about labeling this an outtake, but it really isn't. This is my daughter, always clowning around. Yes, I will claim her!



Have a safe holiday!
