These two are really a sweet couple. I’m so glad we were able to find a farm to use for our session. It was a perfect day and we were able to get amazing portraits! The light was just sick. Sick means awesome here. So pretty and sparking! Michael is a great sport and Rebecca is so sweet. I hope Mom doesn’t freak out too much about all the kissing, er, snuggling… (inside joke!)
Thanks Michael and Rebecca for being amazing!

Being 4 is pretty fun. Especially when you are as pretty as Alexis! I had a great time photographing her and her lovely parents recently. I’ve been loving the beautiful spring weather!

One of the biggest excuses I hear about why people do not have family portrait is “We don’t have time.”
When is the right time? It’s kind of like what people say about having kids “If you wait until you can afford them, you’ll never have them.” Kind of anyway. What I am saying is that you never will have a right time to do portraits. But how would you feel tomorrow if you couldn’t do them? Unfortunately, that happens too often. People wait and someone is lost before you ever had the chance.
Take the Miller Family for example. This is my sister and her husband and in-laws. Her husband Jason will be leaving for Afganistan too soon. His sweet mom has had some health problems. So, despite all their busy schedules, and trying to coordinate lives of three households, we made it work and got this done. If they can do it, you can do it too.

I love meeting new people! But when people are as good looking, funny and creative as Theresa and Bryce it’s even more fun! When talking to Theresa about the engagement session I asked her about the things they like to do and how we can incorporate their personality into their session. Theresa explained that they like beer. Well, who doesn’t like beer, right? So, we started our session at my favorite beer joint, Monks House of Ale Repute. They have like 5000 kind of beer there. So, if you are a beer person, go there. Last time I was there, I partaked (partook? whatever…) in the Raspberry Ale, and it was delicious. A little too delicious. Oops.
Anyway, we started off at Monks. After a few photos inside and a few beers for Bryce, we headed out. It was a gloomy and cloudy day and I was worried all day it was going to rain. Well, Theresa had an umbrella. A yellow one in fact. Turns out Theresa and Bryce are huge How I Met Your Mother fans. There’s an entire storyline involving a yellow umbrella and Ted and Robin.. and it’s a long story, but you can read about it here.
And then there is a Blue French horn, another Ted and Robin reference. I only catch episodes here and there, but I am pretty sure I need to buy the DVD set now and watch it.
Here they are… So cute!
Anyway, Theresa and Bryce are super cute, super fun and I cannot wait for their wedding!
