December Sessions





































Today I went to Faust Park and the Butterfly house to shoot family pictures for a beautiful family, who tolerated me parading them around the park in nearly freezing temperatures. I hope you like the pics guys,you were all champs.

Christmas Pictures






















I just recently shot some pictures for Mary B (as I like to call her) and her very handsome family. They used these for their Christmas cards which turned out to be absolutely adorable.

I, love love love Animals, epically dogs. They have such distinct personalities and can express themselves without ever speaking a word. It's amazing to me how resilient they can be as well. They can be mistreated, abused and tortured by humans and still somehow have the capacity to love and trust again, and forge new beautiful lives with people with hearts as big as the bright blue sky. Well, at least this is true for Linda and her canines. These animals were all rescues, and are some of the sweetest animals I have ever encountered.

Jingle Jungle














































My girlfriends had a cookie bake/ pajama party for their neices, and Ava and Charlie of course. I had so much fun taking pictures of my friends and their kin, just kickin it holiday style.









Pachaeo's












I always have fun when I do photo shoots or else I wouldn't be doing them. This family however was an absolute blast! Their daughter has a more expansive vocabulary than I do, and we even joked that she would make a great babysitter for my son, as she throughout the photo shoot showered him with gifts as if he were baby Jesus himself. I could truly feel the joy in this home, and I am so grateful they invited me to come and play.

Santa Baby
















I just think my man is so much fun. I never in a million years knew that this age would be so entertaining. He puts up with me and the camera in his face 24/7 like a champ. My little santa baby. I just love him to pieces.

I had never photographed a wedding before, So needless to say I now have a whole new respect for wedding photographers. The people you see in these photos are my brother Cory and his new wife Amanda. They share a special connection and love for eachother that is very real. I enjoyed being able to capture this day for them.










Most recently, I had the priveledge of taking my girlfriend Amy's family pictures. The little men in her life are so strong and full of energy. I love this about them. She is such a beautiful mother. I went to her house on the first of December and it was suprisingly nice enough out to shoot the majority of photos outside.
