Andrew and Lisa

November 2004: I had just turned to 16. It was my first High School dance. Everything I had been waiting my whole life for! YIPEE SKIPPY! It happened to be a girls choice, a formal dance. Preference. I asked Andrew with a carved pumpkin, candy, and an oh so cheesy poem.... He said yes, with balloons and ice-cream (he actually went to door bell ditch my door to answer yes, but I walked out on the porched right as he was getting ready to ring the bell. Talk about AWKWARD.... :) The dance was a great one. Among one of my favs for my High School career. Why? Because Andrew is just the nicest kid around. A total gentleman with a great sense of humor.

And if its possible, he has found someone even nicer, and more amazing than him. He and Lisa are perfect for eachother. You can tell by their engagements. Look....




















We caught the last few rays of the sun. I love the beautiful glow that happens during that time of day. Its mmmmm.......very delicious.

Simply Perfect.

WARNING!!!
Your heart might break as you look at these.

Ya know those times when everything goes perfect and you don't know why? You try to recreate that moment other times? But no matter how hard you try you just can't. Well this shoot was one of those moment. I didn't do anything special. Nothing. Everything was perfect. Simply Perfect.


Meet the princess:







Meet the Princesses little sister:







Meet the Princesses Parents:



Yes, thats right, this is one of my favorite images of all time:


The princess and her family:

Look at that SMILE!!!!


See the princess sit:


See the Princess curtsy:

See the princess....Oh wait... I think her highness is about done with this tale.

Goodbye fair Princess


THE END of the Simply Perfect Tale

Bruises, Butt Coldness and Beauties...oh yeah and WIND


If you have been one of my clients, you already know that I am not the most graceful person in the world.


Whether Im standing on a tree, couch, chair, or my own two feet you can almost guarantee I will fall on my face during your shoot.
Most of the time its because I am trying to get a sweet awesome shot, or a really cool angle, or just something to make the picture totally SAWEET.


Well not this time. No cool story to go with this battle wound. All that was involved was me, an "invisible" barb wire fence, and my radical graceful feet.





That's my thigh. And that's a GNARLY bruise.
.....yeah laugh it up.

(The picture has not been enhanced, and the pic itself is a totally low quality image.)


Though my bruise may be wicked, the pictures that happened during that shoot were oh so magical.

Take a look.....






Look how enchanting the wind made the next few pictures look....























I mentioned in the title that it was cold...It was so cold I could not feel any part on my body (except the throbbing of my thigh) and I was in long johns, pants, gloves, coat, socks and shoes. So you try to imagine what this bride had to endure to create these images.

This last image BLOWS my mind away. It was like the second to the last shot of the day, and everyone officially an ice cube. But something came over Staci and she decided to produce this face for me....



WHAT! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? YEAH IN NEGATIVE MILLION DEGREE WEATHER. SHE PRODUCED THAT FACE. Hats off to you my dear.
