Brandy

Hi Everyone! Yes, it's been a while and I've been blog slacking but....oh well. Stuff happens. Anyways, you might remember Brandy from her wedding that I shot last May. She wanted to put together a surprise for her husband, so we got together. Here is a peak at the results. Sorry, the rest are kept under wrap!! Thanks Brandy!

Toni Mark and Allie

My best friend Toni came to visit this weekend with her long time boyfriend Mark, and her daughter (my god daughter) Allie. I grabbed a few pics of them and thought I'd share them. Both Toni and Allie were in my wedding almost two years ago. See below (Toni's my maid of honor in red, and I'm holding Allie's hand. Isn't she a beautiful flower girl! Also pictured are my closest friends as bridesmaids...Colleen, Kim (sister-in-law) Alexis (step-daughter), Reann (sister-in-law) and Denise.)

Here is a pic of Toni and Mark. I've been bugging them for a while to let me take a picture of the two of them, but they're so damn stubborn. I cornered them this time!

And Allie is a hoot. Half the time she's this ramped up version of hyperactive funny kid like this...

And then she's this sweet little girl like this...

I love them all!

Photography Contest

I recently entered a photography contest at work, and took second place in the Critters and Characters category. Here's the photo that won. It's my kitty Midas!

Baby Emma

Back in October, Gerogina and TJ let me share an afternoon with them and take some photos of their family expecting a new addition. Four days later, Emma was born.I got to spend an evening with the family, and see the bundle first hand. She's beautiful and precious and already dictating her own schedule. Here's a look at the evening. Congrats Georgina, TJ and big sister Ella!

Halloween with Graystone Photography

Halloween isn't just for dressing up and begging for candy!! I had a blast working with Erin and Kelly from Graystone Photography this past weekend before partying with them on Halloween! They dressed as 50's girls and we took to the street and did a shoot with them and a mustang! I think we laughed more than we shot photos, but it was worth it! The photos came out amazing, especially when they were processed and tinted to look like they were from the 50's. Check 'em out!

Here's Erin!

Here's Kelly!

Happy Halloween!

Georgina And TJ are Expecting!

Okay, so I have a million and one things to do, but I just HAD to get these pictures up. I had so much fun on Saturday shooting with Georgina and TJ, who are adding a daughter to their family in less than a month. Georgina is the sister of Michelle who just got married two weeks ago, so I'm sure Michelle won't mind if I delay her wedding pics by one day to post her sister's maternity photos!! Wink, Wink!

Anyways, we spent some time down at Muddy Run on Saturday and what a beautiful day it was! We had a blast, laughing and getting dirty. Even soon-to-be big sister Ella made an appearence in some of the photos!

Here are two of my favs from the day as well as a slide show of some of my other favorites from Saturday. Congrats you two! I can't wait to meet her. Stay tuned for new baby picks once she has arrived!!

Michelle and Michael -- September 13, 2008

Michelle and Michael became husband and wife on September 13. Rain was forcasted for the day, but luck was on our side as it didn't come! It was a little muggy and hot, but it was still a beautiful wedding for a beautiful couple. The ceremony was held at St. Joe's church in downtown Lancaster. The church was simply amazing! A small reception was held at Mazzi in Leola following the ceremony. I promised Michelle that I would post my ten favorite pictures for her tonight, but alas, I lied. I couldn't find ten....I found almost forty! Unable to cut them down to post the indivudal pictures, I put together a short slide show of them. Enjoy!
