Kothmann: Family

Photobucket

Not only is this family totally gorgeous and photogenic, but they are one of the sweetest families I know! I was so excited to take their family photos! They have a gorgeous home that they recently renovated, so they opted to take their photos around their home where they are most comfortable. We took several formal portraits, like my favorite below, but the rest of these are my favorite candid shots from the session. I had so many favorites and that I had a hard time narrowing them down, so here's a whole bunch! Enjoy!

After we shot in several locations outside, we headed into Kyle and Melissa's bedroom and all the kids piled onto the bed. I love these because they looked so natural hanging out on their parent's bed!

I took photos of each of the kids in their bedrooms. Katherine and I had a little too much fun in her adorable bedroom and bathroom!

I love this series of Kyle and Melissa! I couldn't pick just one favorite! I love all of them!

But if I had to pick, I think this would be my favorite:

Sarah: Senior Homecoming

Photobucket

A couple weeks ago, Sarah and her mom asked if I would be willing to take some photos of Sarah in her homecoming dress. I was so excited because Sarah was on the homecoming court and we all knew she would be the homecoming queen! Sarah is not only a model student, but a gorgeous young women of God that is truly an amazing role model to all girls her age of how to live and lead a Godly lifestyle. I am so happy that I was able to document this special day for her!

Simply Scrappin' Class

Here are the pages from the Simply Scrappin' class that I taught at the end of September. I had a ton of fun designing these page. It had been quite awhile since I had scrapbooked and it felt good to get some pages done. All of these pages and cards were made using one Stampin' Up! Simply Scrappin' kit.

Amy: Trash the Dress

Photobucket

After Amy and Jared's session, Amy went and put on her one year old wedding dress and we headed back out downtown to capture some shots of Amy looking gorgeous! Here are my favorites.

This shot is awesome! We went back to shoot at a spot and this worker was out taking a smoke break and we begged him to stay for a photo. It's really different, but I love the contrast!

Amy + Jared: Couple

Photobucket

A few weeks ago, I got the wonderful opportunity to photograph Amy and Jared. These two have been married for a year and wanted to have some photos taken together! Aren't they so cute!?! I really enjoyed getting to know them and hearing their story. All I can say is that God totally put them together! Amy and Jared will be taking an eleven month long mission trip...or I should say excursion, around the world next year. I am so excited for them! Here are a couple of my favorites from our afternoon together.

Harvest Tour Day 1

Sorry about the lack of posting lately! I have been so busy with last minute projects and have had no time to sit down and edit any photos. A month ago, Clint and his band, Lifted went to Abliene to play worship at his cousin, David's Harvest Tour. It was an awesome two nights of worship, preaching, salvation and healings. God did a great work in the people and pastors that attended. Here are some photos of the the set-up, sound check and first night.

I designed the Harvest Tour logo and badges. My badge said "Photographer" on one side and "Drummer's Cute Wife" on the other side.

Harvest Tour Day 2

Here are photos from day two of the Harvest Tour. Although this was mainly an all guys trip, I still had a ton of fun getting to know the guys better. It was an awesome bonding time for all of them.

During sound check, John and I were having fun looking up people's names on the Urban Dictionary iPhone app.

In the convention center, there were these HUGE coffee filters that they used. The guys each took turns wearing one of them. It made for some really silly pictures.

We stopped at Whataburger for a late dinner before heading home. We all had an awesome time and I am looking forward to many more Harvest Tours next year.
