Tone Family

I met this family at the Arboretum with Little Jonah. 
He was such a trooper and just went along with anything and everything that we did.
Just three months into this world, 
and I have to say that he has many expressions on that little face to share!
Quite a little actor already...
...What a cutie!

Elyse {Bridal}

I met this beautiful young lady when I moved to Dallas two years ago. We taught together, and I was instantly hooked to her vivacious and bubbly personality. Over the next two years, we would chat and gossip about life and boys...then she met Jeffrey. Love was written all over her face every second from that moment on. Any mention of his name, and her face would light up! And...for their first date, she even bought special red shoes! We (the entire teaching staff) knew instantly that was it. He's the one...the lucky one that she will marry! 

Over spring break, Elyse asked me to meet her at the Arboretum for a Bridal Session. When moving to Texas, everyone talked about their "Bridals"...say what? I'm Kansas Folk. I fell in love with the southern tradition immediately! We had SO much fun with different scenery, poses, and just a good 'ole Girl's Day Out with her Mamma and Auntie. I can't wait to talk a Kansas bride into starting this tradition in Wichita!

For over 2 months, I have been dying to share this gorgeous bride-to-be. Watch out kiddos...Miss Carlisle just became Mrs. Griffin! Congrats to you both on your Happily Ever After!

Baby Clara {New Arrival}

When moving to Dallas, we were certain that our purple following would downsize immensely. 
False story.
K-Staters are everywhere in DFW!
I was so excited to meet baby Clara, and finally get some newborn shots in purple!

She was so teeny and cuddly. 
Not to mention loveable.
Some of my favorite sessions happen when a new Daddy swoons over his baby girl,
and that is exactly what this session was ALL about!



This moment between a Daddy and his baby girl just takes my breath away.

Wheat Field Mini-Sessions

WHEAT HARVEST HAS BEGUN!

It has been a family tradition for years to take pictures in the wheat every June.
So I decided: why not share the love with others?
What a wonderful morning, filled with so much life!
Two amazing stories that I had the privilege to capture on film,
and one special little man who is growing much too fast!

Here is a little sneak peek of our day in the wheat fields....


The Murnahan Family
I cannot even begin to explain how special this family is to me, and to our community. I met the Murnahans 11 years ago when Crystal was the youth director at our church. Not only did Crystal lead us in youth ministry, but Steve was a regular youth as well. He attended every event, wrestled with the boys, and made us laugh uncontrollably with his jokes! Our church family was extremely close, and I remember celebrating the marriage of these 2 special role models in my life! They were parents in the making! Three years ago, Little Hayden came into their lives. The joy and happiness that he brings to this world shows in his smile. He is truly is one of God's angels, and lights up this world! Hayden was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease at 9 months of age, and has endured many obstacles that are unimaginable for a young child. About a month ago, Hayden was blessed with a kidney from a donor from our precious youth group. He is continuing to undergo close observation and take medications, but is doing extremely well. His trip to the wheat field was his first large outing in over a month, and I cannot even begin to express how moving it was to spend a few minutes with him out on the farm!

Wheat Field Mini-Sessions - This Weekend Only

The amber waves of grain are waving in the breeze,
and combines are starting to roll, and dust trails behind.

Growing up on a farm and in a large wheat-growing family,
I absolutely LOVE this time of year!
Each year, we would take our family pictures in the fields,
and I always knew that I wanted to get married on the farm.
And that is exactly what we did!

Now that we are back in Kansas,
I am excited to share that I am going to offer 
Wheat Field Mini-Sessions.

My dad is going to hold off on cutting until next week,
so the fields are available this weekend. 

Please check the schedule below,
