Tracey + Tanner | Engagement

There can’t be a much sweeter couple in the world. There is just a tenderness and authenticity with these two that just makes you stare and say, “Awwww!”
But first, I want to say thank you to Tracey and Tanner. There were several weeks where I was having a horrible respiratory problem and their session fell right in the middle of it.
I arrived and I know I looked like a total train wreck. I bet Tanner was thinking, “Where’d you pick this nut up from?” :P
But after our peptalk, we started shooting and it was just magic. Seriously, like Disney World magic or something. They totally got it and ran with it.
So, for that, I thank you guys. You trusted me on my worst day of the year. I’m just telling myself that you felt comfortable because you knew you couldn’t look worse than me. :D


We started the shoot at Bellevue Baptist Church, where Tanner works in the recreation department. Tracey loves to meet him for lunch and eat in the courtyard.
Towards the end we went to Minglewood Hall, the place of their first date. For everything else in between, I couldn’t be more happy with how beautiful and sweet two people are together. Congrats!! I can’t wait until June!

Fave Five 2011 | Expressions

To end the Fave Fives of 2011, I give you my favorite category.
Here are 5 of my favorite unexpected reactions and expressions.


Even with 40mph gusts of wind, something else managed to catch Rachel off-guard and caused an eruption of laughter. Rachel Daniel…


The final steps of putting on the wedding dress is always an expressive moment. Caitlin’s face is absolutely priceless. Caitlin & Luis…


Known for his funny faces and goofy nature, Allen acts up a little behind Chelsey’s back. Literally. Chelsey & Allen…


In the midst of all the hustle and bustle of getting ready for the big day, Kaitlin takes a deep breath of serenity. Kaitlin & Mac…


If I had an award for The Most Expressive, it would go to Cameron, hands down. Here Cameron pulls her blusher veil over her face and lets out a quiet squeal of excitment
as she’s just minutes away from walking down the aisle. And the last photo is Cameron and Eric’s fabulous and hilarious reaction to a funny comment made by the
priest. Cameron & Eric…


Was your favorite photo here? What did I miss?

Fave Five 2011 | Kids

5 or maybe 6 or 7 of my favorite kid photos of 2011. ;)
There’s plenty more than what’s here. What are your favorites?


There’s been several kids to show early signs of interest in photography. They kind of melt my heart. Jennifer & Adam…


This girl copied everything I was doing, even down to laying on the floor for one shot. It was hilarious. Jennifer & Brad…


Somebody gave me the stink eye. Jana & Scott…


After waiting for 15 minutes, the girls are finally told it’s time to walk the aisle. Christy & Cheslee…


No reception is complete until there has been a scream-off. Chelsey & Allen…


And the cutest smiles go to these two. There’s a reason these are close to my heart and are in my top 5 favorite kids this year. Chu Family…

Don’t miss the last Fave Five tomorrow!

At the reception at my daugher’s Wedding Brad and Jennifer Hansen Weaver my granddaughter Hannah was so funny taking those pictures. She can take better pictures than Terry or me
