Ellen and Tyler ~ Engagement

Ellen and Tyler are getting married in October and I am the lucky one that is shooting their wedding.  We met up to discuss all of the wedding details and then spent some time walking around downtown Columbia chatting and shooting.  I love getting to know my brides and grooms it makes the wedding day so much more fun!

Dennis Bullock: These are all so fantastic Ashley! Love the images near the tunnel!

Nikki Welch: Beautiful!!!

My boy

I am not sure what happened to my baby.  He has grown up so fast that I can’t stand it!  He just got his big boy bed this weekend and he LOVES it.  The transition was very smooth.  He wanted to crawl in it as soon as his daddy and Pa Pa Mike finished putting it together.

My sister and I are always trying to get pictures of our kids together.  We finally got some it only took a little bit of bribery.  Fruit snack and m&ms work pretty good but, aunt Amy standing behind me making funny faces helps too.

Elise ~ Senior 2010!

Senior portraits are just so much fun!    We had a great time running all over a golf course, trying not to fall out of the golf cart, playing with kittens and rolling out of the road when cars were coming. We found some really great places to shoot.  I love new and interesting locations and I think we did pretty good!

Susan & Marty~ Wedding Day! ~ Columbia, MO Wedding Photographer

Susan and Marty were married on August 1st and the day was perfect!  Lots of friends and family, tons of love and fabulous fun!  This wedding was extra special because not only were Marty and Susan joined but a new family was born as Susan joined Marty and his three beautiful children.

I have always loved the colors of these light fixtures on the outside of this church.

Susan chose to wear navy blue shoes to match the wedding colors.  So cute.
