Fun in the Sun!

Every labor day weeknd my home church goes up to Green Lake, WI for a few days. We always have a blast. Lots of lates nights, fires, roasting marshmellows, laughing and lots and lots of food, haha. We also have a tradition on the last night that we are there (Sunday night). People work together and put on skits or videos, we call it no-talent night. haha! We all have a great time and it is definatly one of the highlights of my year. But before I leave tomorrow...I wanted to get these photos up, of another fun time!

I shot this while down in Kentucky visiting my girls! A friend from church, her three kids and her brother also came down. We went to a place in the downtown area of Henderson called, The Fountains. Lots of laughs and water!

Vacation!

Wow baby! It's been a along stretch and no post. I have some fun pictures I want to put up but haven't had time (or internet) haha. I think I definatly have taken my internet for granted!

I am in the cute little town of Henderson, Kentucky, visiting my dear friends Melissa and Bekah. We have had blast so far! Lots of talking, eating, crying, laughing, movies, music, praying and singing. I can't remember such a relaxing and fun time.

Pictures to come!

James and Brianna

On Saturday, I shot such a beautiful wedding! It was a gorgeous sunny day, the bride was glowing and the groom was beaming. Brianna was such a beautiful bride and James would just look at her through his big, brown, adoring eyes. I have never know a couple with such a deep and all-encompassing passion and love for each other and for their God.

I think what I loved the most about them is that they had saved their first kisses for each other. It was so precious! I thought he was going to eat her at the alter, and I couldn't stop giggling as I was attemping to photograph it!! I know brianna was hoping that there wouldn't be any awkwardness at the reception with all the clinking glasses and the kissing, since they had just had their first, but they both looked like they enjoyed themselves quite a bit! lol!!

Here are some of my favorites!

Brianna looked stunning, and her father, Mark, looked so proud as he walked her down the isle. I was teary as they walked past me.

These flower petals were, apparently, way to fun to leave in the basket!!



Enjoy the slideshow!




James and Brianna, I'm so excited that you invited me to be a part of your day. I know that the Lord is going to bless your marriage and use it in a powerful way. You're in my heart. Blessing and love to you both in your new journey!

Lindsey and Jared

I have known Lindsey, I think, for forever. Haha. We have gone to the same church since we were both small. We were never close friends (which I feel sad about now) but I loved that she invited me to be a part of her day!

Photobucket

She looked absolutly beautiful, and had such a sweet and positive attitude the whole day. The day was planned to be all outside, but sadly the weather had other ideas, two rain showers and lots of wind.

I felt so sad as she was looking out of the dressing room window at the chaos outside in dismay! But she just turned from the window, and said with a smile and a sigh, "Whatever!" haha! She was such a trooper!

Here are some of my favorites.

Just about to walk down the isle with her dad, who also married them. It was very touching.
Jareds face absolutly lit up when he saw her at the end of the isle.
