I met with these two this past winter, and we were able to play in the snow.  Ben and Lindsey wanted to take a few more photographs in warmth of the summer sun.  We sure did have warmth! ha I should have rephrased that “hot summer sun.”  But nothing was going to stop us.  We […]

I had a great time photography my cousin Austin.  We had a very warm day, but we were able to tackle that.  We spent the day on the family farm, venturing from the barn to many other fun features of the location.  Congratulations Austin! Best of luck in everything you do!   \\J  

What a great way to start out the senior year!  Cruised around Marathon and had our final stop at Nine Mile.  We had a great day, we beat the heat and enjoyed some laughs.  Congratulations Zack, good luck in all of your endeavors! \\J  

The summer months can get warm, but the heat couldn’t beat.. o wow I can’t believe I just said that haha, felt like a chant!.. But honestly I had a wonderful time walking around Eau Pleine Park and photographing these two.  As the session continued, we all got more relaxed, and the laughs continued.  Congratulations […]

Holy Cow!! EEKK!! AHHH.. just a few sound effects I made on Justin and Jillian’s wedding.  It was completely unbelievable.  Jillian is a graphic artist, and she used her creative techniques to come up with a theme.  As you go through the images you will spot out the wedding logo, the guest, sign-in poster and […]

Ryan and Kaylin’s beautiful wedding took place on a golf course in Orangeville Illinois.  A beautiful, breezy June day, with the sun shining. As we arrived we knew this wedding was going to be relaxed, beautiful, and completely unbelievable. The ceremony was set beneath the trees, in the shade, on the golf course.  Guests gathered, […]

This particular wedding holds a special place in my heart.  I graduated with a very small class, and I remember these two specifically. Prom. These Two. Together.  These two actually met way back when in, what was it, first grade?  (correct me if I am wrong).. They spent years growing up together, and finally, prom […]

The smallest details were so thoroughly thought out.  Kim put her crafty hands into making the wedding incredibly beautiful!  The moment I saw her flowers I was in awe!  Hand make flowers out of paper!!  That takes time, patience and creativity, and that is exactly what Kim has. Choice of location was wonderful, a family […]

So I get into these itches where I really enjoy certain things for awhile. Here is a collection of images to help explain my interests! 1.  Old abandoned buildings — I LOVE old buildings, and I love old abandoned houses.  Yes  a little creepy, but I try and focus on the history end rather the […]

Life can get difficult… to the point where we forget to think about how blessed we are.  Sometimes I think these bad things that happen have to occur in order for the future to happen.  As hard as it is, life has a funny way of working it’s way out.  We have to believe, we […]
