Facebook!!!

So I now have a facebook page and will be posting most of my photography portfolio on there from now on. If you want to see it you can go there and find me:) I will be shutting this blog down though because I don't have time to do both of them:) I have loved posting on here and loved all of the amazing comments you all have made...you are all so encouraging!
God Bless!

Calamity Jane

 I have been volunteering at the Kansas Humane Society for a couple of weeks now and I finally got a dog that was there. Her name is Calamity Jane, but we just call her Cal. She is the prettiest thing you will ever see...even if she is a little lax on manners:-)

She is the perfect little lap dog...here is Anna holding her.

She is a designer dog called an Imo Inu which is a Sheba Inu and an American Eskimo mix. Don't you love that curled tail?

Look at that face! I love my Cal!

Ultimate Frisbee!

 So I thought I would share with you some pictures of one of my fav sports...Ultimate Frisbee! Thank you Rachel for taking these pics for me...I was playing and it's so much fun I couldn't even bring myself to stop and take a few pics:-)

 I don't know how Ben can jump so high...this was an amazing catch!

I'm not even going to try and name everybody. This game is so amazingly fun! And the people we play with are all just totally awesome!

Transparent Screen Allusion

Ok so this was fun! My sister's boyfriend James got this idea from the web and I needed a "framed" picture for my class so he helped me figure out how to do it. It took awhile, but we finally figured it out. I couldn't have done it without him...and it turned out so cool! Thanks James for the idea and help! It was tons of fun!

Melissa Photo-op

 One of my amazing friends asked me to take some pictures of her so that she could send some of them to her parents and family in Papua New Guinea. They are missionaries there and I know they would appreciate your prayers with the work they are doing there. Melissa stayed here in the states to finish her college education in Communications. Let me know what you think of these...which is your fav?

 She is so beautiful...it was pretty easy taking pics of her:)

 At the place she is staying there is a really cool bridge where we snapped some pics on.

 :)

 I love this one on the picnic table!

 The lighting was pretty good when you stayed in the shade of the trees.

I never did one like this before, but I thought it turned out pretty well...what do you think?

Kansas City

Our family went to Kansas City for a day trip to visit our grandparents...it was way fun! We played some Frisbee at a park and then went and hung out at my grandparents house for a while. I mostly just got head shots and close-ups from the whole day:)...don't know why. Well, let me know what you think!

 This is Razzie...my aunt Jo's little yorkie-poo. (you know, yorkie and poodle mix) Lol.

 Krista bought James this awesome camera for his b-day/Christmas present...and she couldn't wait to give it to him so she gave it to him the night before so that he could play with it on  the trip.

 

 My brother Joey is always way too cute!

A macro shot of some flowers.

 I love this one! It was pretty random, but it should be on a book cover or something...I want to know what it made you think of:-) (This is my beautiful cousin Hayley by the way. Lol.)

Wedding Misc.

 Here are a few more pictures that I got at Daniel and Amanda's wedding. Hope you like them :)

 My sister and maid of honor.

 The bridesmaids...Abby, Krista, and Elizabeth!

 Taking pictures of the photographer doing his thing.

 My sister and the bride.

 One of the beautiful bouquets!

And my personal favorite...even though they aren't even looking at me. Lol

Awesome Pic!

What do you think?!?!?!?!

Wedding Rehearsal

 Here are some pics of Daniel and Amanda's wedding rehearsal. It was loads of fun with lots of laughs and lots of food afterwards.

 Here is the choir that sang...they did an awesome job!

 Krista had to act as one of the grandparents who weren't there...awwwww, she thoroughly enjoyed hanging onto James' arm:-)

The bride and her dad

 At the rehearsal dinner.

 This was the best man at the wedding...at least that is what he called himself. Lol

 All of the bridesmaids...Elizabeth, Abby, and then my sister Krista was the maid of honor.

 They were trying to pose for me and they looked really cute, except that face that just had to pop into the picture...thanks Sam:)

 Little Ruthie thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate cake.

Needless to say, I think Daniel enjoyed himself very much...mostly because he was with Amanda though:-) Lol

Brandon and Ashlyn

 Here are the rest of the pics that I promised you! I loved how some of them turned out. Please let me know what you think.

 Ashlyn was the most beautiful bride!

 I loved her dress

 The groom...I loved his cowboy outfit!

 I love watching couples adore each other and praise God all at the same time.

 :-)

 It was a wonderful wedding and such an experience for me. My first wedding was nerve racking and exciting all at the same time! I loved it!

Ashlyn and Brandon Wedding: Teaser

I got to shoot my first wedding ever!!! It was awesome to be able to shoot second for a wedding...not to much pressure, but lots of fun. Mary B. was so much fun to work with. She gave me total freedom to do basically whatever I wanted to do:-) Let me know what you think of this one.

Daniel and Amanda...Engagement!

 Okay, this couple is so adorably cute together! I've known Daniel all of my life and I've known Amanda for several years. (But it feels like I've known her all my life as well:) 

I was able to take some pics of them after they were engaged and it was so fun! We went to this really nice park with waterfalls, brick walls, ivy, and beautiful flowers. Because it was so blazing hot here in Kansas right now, we went out really early in the morning. The lighting is a little different but I thought it was pretty cool. Let me know what you think.

 I love the waterfall on this one.

 Ivy!

 There was this really cool rock bench for them to sit on...making for some really nice pics.

 They are so cute!

 The beautiful ring!

 I love the lighting on this one.

Thank you Daniel and Amanda for letting me take your pics...I hope your wedding goes well and your life together full of happiness!
