George & Martha are married!

I had a fantastic time photographing the wedding of George & Martha last weekend.  I have known George since I was young because our moms are good friends.  We were raised in the same church and circle of friends so this wedding was lots of fun for me.  It was supposed to rain all day but luckily it stopped long enough for us to get great photos of Martha who was such a stunning bride!  Here are just a few of my favorite photos.  Click on the title to see more photos from this wedding.  

Marissa's Senior Portraits

I LOOOVE the fact that senior portraits have changed.  Gone are the days where you have this beautiful full of life teen sitting in a studio in front of a boring blue or grey background with a fake cheesy smile hating every minute of their session.  I love that we are getting out into the beautiful world taking pictures that showcase not only their beauty but their personality and sense of style.   Here is a gorgeous senior I had the pleasure of photographing last week.  As always, to see more click on the title!   

Such a Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving, I sure did!!!!!!  On Wednesday night at about 8:30, while my husband, my girls, and I are laying on blankets in front of the fireplace all cozy and warm I get a phone call from my brother.  "Hey Suz will you Mark and the girls come over to moms?"  "uh why? it's 8:30 at night and it's cold and we're cozy"  "Just come over as a favor to me, don't ask questions"  "well, you can ask Mark"  So I hand Mark the phone and George convinces him to head over.  As soon as Mark hangs up he says to me "they're pregnant"  and I immediately think the same thing.  So we get the girls dressed for the horrible cold outside and we head over.  I am so impatient that I can't bear the 7 minute drive to my parents not knowing for sure what it could be so I call my mom and she has no clue.  So I then call my sister and neither does she.  UGGHHH I can't wait!  So we get there and I walk in saying "someone better be pregnant or have won the lottery around here"  Note: Do NOT surprise me I hate them (unless I don't know I'm being surprised)  lol I'm such a control freak I know.   So George in his strait no emotion face is just standing by the table and Julie is walking down the stairs with a little christmas box in her hands.  HA it's a pregnancy test (gross I don't know why I thought that) or a winning lottery ticket.  So George gives a little speech that I can hardly remember because I was trying to solve the puzzle before he revealed it and then Julie hands the box to my dad.  He opens it and WALA we're right Ultrasound pictures!!!!!!  We're so smart.  So I quickly take a look at the ultrasound picts because I've seen a million and they all look the same and I notice something and say "hey what is that, another baby?" nobody answers so I don't give it another thought.  So I just walk away and congratulate George & Julie.  And then I don't remember who told us to look closer but when I did it said something like "we're twins"  OMGOSH!!!!!!!  Talk about excitement I can't remember anything after that but think I started jumping up and down.  I wanted twins soooooo badly when I was pregnant and didn't get them so this was super duper extra exciting for me!   So on June 12th (or close) of this new year  I will become an auntie to TWINS!!!!!!!!  Oh my camera will be working some major overtime.  So that's how my Thanksgiving went how was yours?  

Candace

Beautiful girls!  Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing these four beauties.  It was lots of fun and a little messy (we had to walk thru this yucky field) but worth it because I just love how these photos turned out.   A while back I met Candice on Facebook (that sounds so funny) she is actually a childhood friend of my husbands but like most people do they lost touch after school.  Luckily, Facebook is good at reuniting old friends ;)  Candace asked me to do these months ago so it was fun to finally meet her in person!  As always, click the title to see more!
