The Rush Family

Yesterday I got to take some photos of the Rush Family. We went down to Nathanael Greene Park early in the morning yesterday - thank goodness because it was already hot. We did the Rush family first and then took a large extended family shot as well. It was nice having the whole family there because they were so good at getting Miss Makenna to smile for me - and I think I got some great shots! Thanks guys for helping haul my stuff around as well!

Mr. & Mrs. Grose: Part II

So here are the rest of the detail shots from the Grose Wedding. Wish I could have taken more but I did not realize how busy I would be as a bridesmaid. That is why there are tons of pictures of her getting her hair done in the morning but not much after the wedding started. I was super grateful to have my brother in law & his girlfriend watch Caleb during the actual wedding ceremony. They were so helpful!

I must say their wedding cake - by far - was the best wedding cake I have ever tasted. And, on top of that it was pretty cool looking too. Check it out!



It had two separate layers - I only had the one that was chocolate with chocolate chips - and oh man was that tasty!

A girl after my own heart - CANDY BAR!!!




These were all hand made, and boy did I cut lots, and lots of paper :)







The Bride was a great multi-tasker: getting her hair done and writing thank you notes.

My Little Man Turns ONE!

Caleb turned one on Sunday! We cannot believe how fast time has gone by. It seems like just yesterday we took him home from the hospital. Being a parent is so much more fun than I could have ever imagined! Happy Birthday big BOY!







Thanks everyone for all of Caleb's awesome gifts! He loves them!

I did make the cake. This was my second fondant cake - it was so much fun - however it was tedious and very time consuming.



I was so grateful my Mom came in to help me with everything.



Oh and the cupcakes were orange spice with espresso frosting, and chocolate chunk with nutella frosting. Needless to say I have not lost any weight this week! :) They were super yummy though.





I felt like preparing for this party was like preparing for my wedding. Lots of details. Um, next year I am gonna have to work something else out. That was A LOT OF WORK!

Easter and 12 Month Photos. What a Slacker!

So I staged the Easter photos since I did not actually take any on Easter, and I thought I might take a few more since he will be a year old on Sunday! Wow, time flies!

The Wedding of Mr. & Mrs. G-Rose!

So I just got back from vacay in AZ. I was down visiting a friend for her wedding. I was actually in the wedding so this was not a typical shoot for me. Just fun at a good friends wedding. She was a BeAuTiFul bride - but seeing as I only had a few minutes here and there - and I only brought a 50mm with me - I did not get many shots. Here are a few of them. A few more will follow when I get a spare moment.
