The Rainwaters
I think it was a little too appropriate and perfect that although none of us expected it, it rained during my family session with the Rainwaters. Alysha has become the friend I always wanted in life. She's funny, care free and unpretentious. I think these photos capture their spirits pretty darn well if I do say so myself. I love shooting lifestyle family portraits. In photography there are so many directions you can go. I love how carefree people and kids are in their homes which creates more natural family portraits. In home photo shoots are definitely some of my favorites.
Erik + Ivonne
Erik and Ivonne met thru a photo on a friends desk. Ivonne's pretty face caught Erik's eye and from that the pursing began. From the couple....
"We wanted our wedding to scream "rustic elegance" and Barr Mansion fit that perfectly. Everything about Barr fit our personalities. The charming details in the mansion and the modern glass-front reception area complimented our wedding vision."
"Erik and the Groomsmen's suspenders were all held on by safety pins and last minute sewing skills. Apparently no one noticed their pants didn't come with the suspender buttons. They realized it right before they were supposed to leave the house. So while they were supposed to be all dressed and on their way to the venue, they were sitting at home sewing on buttons, like a group of little old ladies."
Favorite part of the day....
"Our favorite part of the day was the ceremony. At that moment, there was no one there but Erik and me. Everyone around us disappeared and time seemed to stand still as we said our vows to each other. It was surreal."
