Meredith and Dominick

I had the pleasure of shooting Meredith and Dominick's wedding today. They are a gorgeous couple and it shows in the pictures. They had great friends and family that supported them for their wedding. It was a wonderful thing to see! The got married at Central United Methodist Church here in Oskaloosa and had the reception across the street at Kinsman's Keep.

I just can't believe how awesome the weather was today!! I was hoping all week for a reprieve from the monsoon we were experiencing and we got it today!

Okay, enough from me...

Sunflowers

I love summer for many reasons.. one of which is sunflowers. I love them so much! This year I found a different spot in the front yard to scatter the seeds and have a whole lot of different colors and varieties..







I also caught some with a pretty butterfly last weekend.

Zachary

Meet Zachary--He's my buddy! What a great kid! Zach loves to fish, so that's what we let him do while we took pictures. We also went down to the Keomah Lodge and got some great stuff there too. He was such a trooper, it was pretty hot and sticky out today!

He looks so much like his dad here..



We found this cool stump and had him sit on it..

Trying to catch a big one..

Tricia & Garrett

What a great couple!! These guys are friends of Dana (one of my assistants) and I came along to second shoot with Dana as she did their engagement session. Let me tell you, we had so much fun with them!! We did some very "outside the box" stuff with this couple!

You'll be seeing more of Tricia too, Tricia is doing a trash the dress session with us very soon. As you can see, she's up for just about anything!





A variation of the hand in the back pocket shot.. I like!





Of course a ring shot, I've never done one on a bullet before!


And of course a dip shot! Love it!!
