Candace {bridal photography}

For everyone that knows Candace don't freak out about not receiving an invite to her wedding.  I just had to ask Candace to get all dolled up for some bridal modeling.  Can you blame me? I absolutely love photographing her.  She has a gorgeous smile, bright blue eyes, completely flawless skin, and she looks absolutely beautiful without even trying.  So, I really wanted to see her get all done up and into a wedding dress.  Anyway, I was right, she looks AMAZING all in white.  Thanks again Can, love you!

The sun was definitely on our side for this shoot. I love how it peeked out in the photo below.

Again with the good light. The sun gave us the most amazing glowy back light for the next two photos.

I loved this building so much. Unfortunately, as you can tell from the first few photos, it was in pretty bad shape. Now where this crumbly building once stood there is nothing more than a dirt pit. What a shame.

I will end with my favorite photos from the whole shoot. The wind started to blow and  Candace remained looking absolutely exquisite.

The Martins {family photography}

We have been trying to get my husbands family together for what seems like FOREVER! My mother-in-law has been wanting to get these done for literally years.  So, after much planning and re planning, I am glad to say that we were finally able to get everyone together.  Now, I know I am a bit bias but these kids are do dang cute I can hardly stand it.

 

Just look at these kids.  You cannot tell me they aren't total studs.  I love the above right image; Tys is such a good big brother!

I would say 98% of the time that I see Bryn she is just grinnin'.  Except of course when we wanted her to for family pictures, isn't that how it always works out?

I love this little smile. I think she knew when all the family shots were done because that's when she turned into a total ham and wanted nothing more than to have her picture taken.

The only time this little girl gave us one of her amazing real smiles was when she could choke out her dad.  And, she can give some pretty intense hugs as you can see below.

I'm not really sure why but  the next image just makes me smile.  I love their "too cool" expressions.

And here we all are again. If you can't pick me out, I am the shortest one with the blue scarf on the left.  Thanks for such a great shoot everyone and Wan, your wall is going to look amazing!

Tatem {kids photography}

OK, I will just get it out of the way right now... I am absolutely in love with these photos!  It was so hard for me to sift through these images and make cuts for my blog.  So, when this happens, I just have to put a ton on.  Tatem was so much fun to photograph.  At first she tried to cover her gorgeous smile with her little hands.  However, her efforts were all for naught because this big old grin never really left her face and, after a while, it was impossible for her to hide it.  So finally she had to cave and I am so glad she did because it let her little personality just shines through out all of these photos.

Here she is trying her hardest to hide her cute little smile.
