A child fills the hole in your heart that you never knew was there.

Smiles, giggles and so many more expressions to catch.  Out of all of the stages in life, all the changes that have taken place in this very short year, have taken you to this birthday.  Bring on the second year because you've got this one mastered.

 

Oh El-bug!  You are so grown up.  So much energy and spunk for such a tiny package! What a gift you are.  You gave me a run for my money this shoot.  I hope daddy liked the camo session as much as I did.  You didn't like sitting in the boot much but you fit!  I must say, a girl who can tear into a cake like that is a girl after my own heart!  You have all the charm of dad and the quick wit of mom!  You're bound to be a lil rock star!  Happy 1st Birthday!

Love makes a family.

Nothing's better than seeing two people in love joining together to form a fantastic new family!  Weddings have always been unique and special to each couple and had their own touches of their relationship.  It's what makes their special day their own.  

I think your pictures say it all!  You are such a fun couple and family and your wedding demonstrated that.  You compliment each other so well and make such a wonderful pair.  I may be a bit biased but I think that from your very first date, I knew this was a perfect match!  Congrats to you both and your new, wonderful family!

Senior year is one of the most exciting and decision-filled years of a teenagers life.  The year is full of being at the top of the high school ladder and apprehension of things to come.  You're in for a great year!

What an adventurer!  Your locations and pink kicks set you apart from all the others!  I love that you showed your personality and your passions!  You stayed flexible and were even willing to climb up in a tree for some shots!  They made for lasting memories!  I hope you had as much fun as I did!

I've learned so much from photographing kids; they will keep you guessing, make about 20 different faces in a given sitting, and last about 1 hour before the breakdown happens!  But this beauty gave me a run for my money!  

You have so much spunk for such a little person!  What a blast getting to see your little personality and your goofy-ness!  All the little faces you make made for great photos!  Mom and dad have their hands full with you, Tenley!  Full of fun, full of energy and full of adventure!  You’ll grow up too fast and be breaking boys’ hearts in no time!

Now join hands, and with your hands your hearts.

The Wedding Day.  Months of preparation and planning all slammed into one day you will never forget.  The nerves and the excitement, the love and the hope.  So many plans packed with so many emotions and all captured in just a few photos.

Your wedding had all the touches of a long relationship that finally reached its big day.  I can always tell when a couple looks into each other's eyes on that day, when they first see each other in their wedding attire, the love, the knowing that this is the start of your forever!  You fit.  Every bit of being in your presence is comfortable.  And your knowledge and understanding of each other only has room to grow, from now until forever.  I was blessed to be a part of it!  Congratulations!
