Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Happy Birthday Jesus!!!


I hope you all had a great Christmas! I can't believe 2009 is coming up, I don't know where 2008 went:)
I took our family Christmas pictures in Alabama in a totally random place! We were traveling home and I saw IT!!! I knew it was the place! Thank you for all of the nice comments about our location...the part that made it fun was that it was so random that I probably couldn't take you back to the same exact spot! I loved it and I am finally able to post the pictures since most of you have gotten your Christmas cards by now!






I love the artistic flair even though we went traditional for the card:)

::Skyler and Grayson::

Skyler-well I'm glad I captured his smile!
Grayson- playing patty-cake!!!
we did these shots pretty early in the morning...can you tell?!?!?!?! They were troopers!!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!!

Christmas:)

Skyler and Grayson were fun and challenging! I love challenges and thats why I love photography! God has created everyone uniquely in their own way and capturing that moment of time is amazing! Anyway...These two handsome fellows are fun!!

BRANDON + Camera = Fun!!!!

Wow! Brandon was so much fun to "shoot"! We chatted along the way...laughed...cut up...found some really cool spots to "shoot" at...became friends...and next time we have a date=) to Marble Slab!!!! Good times...

I am totally in love with this black and white! I think it has awesome contrast...but thats just my opinion!!!

I have had my eye on this red barn for awhile now, so when Brandon's mom asked me to "shoot" his pictures I knew exactly where we were headed!!! Little did I know he would wear the perfect sweater to go with the red!!!

Handsome=)

I love love love all of these...The colors made for an awesome photo shoot...

Brandon I had a blast with you! Thanks for being awesome and having fun...I can't wait until next time!!! :-)

More engagement pictures!

Wow with soooo many pictures!! Literally over 300-I had a really hard time picking which pictures to post. To be honest they were all pretty amazing-so it was hard to pick! So with that said this is a really really long post:) I hope you enjoy!!!

I think this first one looks so old timey newspaperish!!!

I think this picture is pretty cool myself:-)

As we were walking along the beach...they started writing a "love" note to each other! Oh so cute-- "I Love You!"

ok so here goes the fun! I asked Jesse to stand behind Colette and jump for joy...and before I knew it...well you'll see as the pictures go!

I love love love Colette's expression here! It's like..."oh my goodness is he going to make it!!!" haha

and he makes it!! Jesse you've got talent!

These next two...well lets just say they are on my top favorites list!!!

I seriously think this should be in a magazine...somewhere...somehow!!

I love the arches and the texture!

I've said it once but I'll say it again...you two are amazing! I loved shooting every picture of y'all!

Haha! The all time favorite...face game!!!

This is the "I ran a red light face!!!!"

Can you see how much fun they had...I had...we had!! wow!

Well and this one...yeah it's the runaway bride:)

The lens flare is sweet in this picture!

Last but certainly not least! This definitely has a story behind it. So I'm sitting down changing out my lens and I hear Colette- "hey Erin look...this is the girls bathroom and boys bathroom" I died laughing! (in case you don't get it...it's their shadows that look like the bathroom symbols) So yeah we had to get this picture!

Once again you two are AmAZinG!!!!!! Thank you for the fun and letting me be a part of helping make your memories last a life time!
