Nic & Wade's Guest Book

This is the slideshow of Nicole & Wade's guest book, with their favorite photos from their engagement session. It turned out beautifully!

Wedding Bells!

Love is in the air.....We have been meeting with many beautiful couples recently who are planning weddings for this year and next. We have already had to turn clients away because dates were booked, so I would suggest a preliminary meeting as soon as possible if you are planning a 2009 ceremony. Spring will be very busy with portrait sessions, so if you would like engagement portraits, now is the time to book!!

We have previously used traditional proof books as part of wedding packages, but are now offering coffee table books, as well.  These are beautiful 8.5 x 11 hardcover books, with double-sided gloss pages and a heavy stock dust jacket.  Below is a slideshow of a sample book from Colleen & Preston's wedding.  We'll be happy to show you the finished sample.

My hero, Liz

We just watched KCTV5 news to see a special report featuring my friend Liz and her husband, Ryan. I passed her story onto to all of my friends with kids a couple weeks ago. Their little girl, Reece, was hospitalized after she broke out in a terrible rash. The doctors couldn't figure it out and it was a terrifying experience for them. They later discovered that she had a severe reaction to Carter's tag less clothing. The company was aware of the problem, but still keeping the items on shelves! I was appalled and angered, especially as a parent. Please pass this information on to any new parents.

Thankfully, Reece is doing great now. I'm relieved because she is a doll and her parents are sweethearts! Liz and Ryan trusted us to take pictures of their wedding and newborn photos of Reece with their son, Ben (which I haven't had a chance to post yet, sorry!). I was shocked and delighted to see one of the photos we took of Reece featured on the show. They said, "This picture of Reece is one her parents will always cherish...."

Then, we noticed that one of the wedding photos was hanging in the background during the interview.

After the segment, Katie Horner commented on the "beautiful picture of that baby", which is awesome because she is the ONLY meteorologist we watch! :)

I'm very proud of Liz because I know she was worried about doing that interview, but I'm so glad she did. I'm so sorry this happened to them, but hopefully this interview will save some families from having to go through the pain this family faced.

Colleen and Preston's Wedding

We were honored recently to be a part of Colleen and Preston's wedding day. They are such a fun couple and we loved the unique touches they added to make their day special.


Love the colors!
The groomsmen actually threw Colleen in the air! Luckily, they caught her, too!
