Jussie and Eric

A great, damp fall day was spent at Quail Ridge Park in Missouri with Jussie and Eric (and their little one Aiden). I had a really fun time photographing them; they were full of smiles, energy and good ideas. I am so excited that Jussie has also choosen to get married here. The park is so picturesque! It will make for beautiful wedding shots...I can't wait.

Ryan and Katherine

Another beautiful fall day and another fun couple made

for a great engagement session. Katherine and Ryan were so relaxed, snuggly and full of smiles,
 that capturing their love seemed easy.

Engaged: Ashley & Justin!

The park was so pretty for Ashley and Justin's session...a little brisk but otherwise perfect! They make such a cute couple. And, I loved Ashley's red shoes.

Melissa and James are engaged!

Fall color is in full bloom, and I have been busy! I photographed Melissa and James on a cold, Friday fall night. We managed to show up at the park while they were setting up a 'jack-o-lantern luminaire' night, so we were able to have pumpkins in the shots (I love Halloween)!
 Melissa and James were a lot of fun...both sports fans with a great sense of humor, and both were good sports about the cold (they carried handwarmer's in their pockets!).

More from Kelcee's session

I have so many favorites from Kelcee's shoot, I couldn't resist sharing more...Her session reminded me of shooting fashion (with a much smaller crew:). These were shot downtown Springfield. Thanks to Kelcee's sister, we were also able to shoot some shots on a rooftop.

Kelcee 2010

I love photographing Seniors! Kelcee was alot of fun to photograph. Not only did she have great outfits, but she had great ideas...she suggested the graffiti spot! I have lots more from this session to share,

 so this is just a sneak preview of what's to come.

Denise & Anthony

Engagement photos! It was a beautiful fall day spent in Allerton Park in Monticello, IL. Denise and Anthony are young, in love and a lot of fun.
