I had the privilege of celebrating Sammy’s 25th year as pastor at Northminster Baptist on October 2nd.  What am amazing thing to witness….there were so many people who came to celebrate this joyous occasion.  Thank you to everyone who helped make the celebration a success, it was a truly remarkable event.  PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGESammy’s brother and sister-in-law surprised him and the family! PIN IMAGEThere were SO many people there to celebrate such a special occasion.  PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEAfter the service, everyone was invited to share lunch together.  Thanks to Shyndigz for the AMAZING lunch….and desserts!! PIN IMAGEThe theme for the celebration was sailboats, so there was a sail displayed that everyone could sign.  PIN IMAGEYUM! PIN IMAGESammy was presented with a gift from the Children and a dance was performed by the youth girls! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEThe images below are so special.  During the 25 years that Sammy has been pastor at Northminster, he has baptized (including myself!), married(including Jay and myself!), and dedicated many babies and children to the church(including Kaleigh!).  WHAT an honor! PIN IMAGEI love these images below.  This is Sammy’s family….they have been so supportive and loving to him and I know how proud they must be of him.  PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEThank you Sammy for letting me be a part of such a special day.  I am truly honored!

I look forward to “The Buckland Family Session” every year!!  This family is SO sweet and the kids are just precious!

When I started building my portfolio and before I had made a business of photography just two short years ago, the Bucklands were brave enough to have me photograph them.  I LOVED working with them during our first ever session which you can see here(don’t judge!!) haha!

If it were not for families like the Bucklands, who were willing to take a risk and trust me to be their photographer, I would not be here today, so THANK YOU Paul and Kasey! 🙂

This year, we had a new(and oh so cute!) addition to the family session and I was really excited to see how the family had grown from last year’s session.

I just want to say what an honor it is to be this family’s photographer.  Not only do I have the opportunity to know a WONDERFUL couple and their beautiful children, but I also get to share some of their most precious memories with them.  I know that these pictures will be cherished for many years to come and it touches my heart that I am able to give this gift to them.  I cannot express how thankful I am to bring them joy when they look at these photos!

Kasey, I know you must be about to jump out of your seat right now, so I will stop rambling!  Sweet Buckland family, it was a blast working with you all and I am already looking forward to next year’s session!!  Love you guys!

I love taking pictures of Kaleigh…..I’ve been doing it since the day she was born!  I contribute much of why I became a photographer to her.  From the moment she was born, my goal was to capture every single moment I could of her.  During her first year, I probably took more pictures of her than most people would in a lifetime!  I was a little obsessed!  I have since then become less “snap happy” but I do enjoy bringing out my camera from time to time and just shooting for fun….and it just so happens that what I love shooting for fun is my children!  🙂

Kaleigh is a pro when it comes to taking pictures….she should be though…she’s had seven years of practice with me!  And when she is in the mood to take pictures, boy, she can really put on that model face!  I have had so many people express that she should go into modeling simply because of how well she does in front of the camera…and I may be biased, but I think she is a beautiful little girl. 😉

I took these near the end of summer, and sadly, I am just now getting around to posting them!  We were at my grandma’s house in White Stone and I asked if she wanted to come out with me for a few minutes to snap some photos.  She was eager and we had a really fun time!

So here’s the last taste of summer for everyone and a tribute to My Girl!  Love you Kaleigh Marie!

PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEI just love the light in these photos….gorgeous! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEDid I tell you she knows how to work the camera?! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEOne of my favorites is the image below….this was actually an outtake and when I looked back through the photos, I can’t believe I skipped by this one! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEAnd absolute favorite image of the two of us to date….. PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEHope everyone has a great weekend!!  Enjoy the beautiful weather!

  

I have to say, Krystle and Robert are some of the nicest people I have met!!  They were SO easy going, carefree, and HAPPY!!  Each time I looked at them they had big smiles on their faces…I could tell they were truly in love.  And their wedding was nothing less than gorgeous!  I loved her colors and everything coordinating so well together.  I really enjoyed working with this couple on their special day, along with Beth Harris from Beth Harris Photography.

It was truly an honor! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEHow beautiful is this bride?! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEI just LOVE this church! PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEThe guys are looking sharp!
