Alicia & Jamie

A cold, winter evening was a perfect night for a warm, beautiful wedding. Alicia's grandfather built the charming chuch that hosted her ceremony, so I made sure to feature it in her photos. I fell in love with Alicia's black-and-white wedding cake...so pretty!

Wedding bells on ice!

Jennifer and Grant are hockey fans, so we decided to get some fun shots on ice.

Jennifer and Grant

A beautiful, crisp fall day set the stage for Jen and Grant's wedding. It was a wedding full of fun, smiley people, which made for great wedding photos. I took a lot of 'favorites' at this wedding, so I will be posting a bunch!

A little fun in Photoshop...

I decided to play a little with this image in photoshop. I always love mixing black and white with color. Because the color of the original image is so rich, I can't decide which I like better.

Michelle and Josh

Another fun shoot on yet another brisk, fall day. Photographing Michelle and Josh was a lot of fun. We walked around downtown Springfield stopping at scenic spots to create photos. We were even able to find a little bit of country in the city.
