Johnny & Rebecca - Wedding Day 10.17.08

October 17th.  What a beautiful day for a beautiful wedding.  Johnny & Rebecca were such a wonderful couple to photograph.  I don't think there was a moment when Rebecca wasn't giggling.  They were so much fun!  The fall colors made for some wonderful shots.  

Here is the dress...

Thanks again to both of you for having us be a part of your big day.  We had a great time and got really great photos.  Hope you enjoy them as much as we do.  Congrats!

I won in a photography contest!!!

As most of you may know, I (Erin) work full-time at a local magazine.  We had a photography contest there last week and I entered 2 pictures and I won!  Don't know what yet, but that doesn't matter, I won!!!

This is my cousin Carynn.  This picture took 1st place in the "Enchanting" category.

This is Carmel and her mother.  Kelly Metz and I did a photo shoot for their family in August.  This picture took 3rd place in the "Emotional" category.

Yay!  I'm so excited!  Thanks to everyone that voted for me, even though you probably didn't know they were mine :)  Thanks again to my cousin and his fiance for letting me enter Carynn in the contest and also thank you Carmel for letting me enter this picture that still brings tears to my eyes every time I look at it.  God Bless...

Happy Halloween - 2008

Halloween - Trick Or Treating, Parties, Playing Dress Up!  What other time of the year can you have this much fun?  Don't answer that...  Anyway, in the last post of little Brayden I made mention of our newest assistant Kelly.  Kelly and I are BFF's (Best Friends Forever) in case you didn't know.  We dressed up as 50's girls for her Halloween Party.  Kelly Metz of Metz Photography was gracious enough to do a photo shoot of us before the party.  Oh and the hot car you see in the pics???  It's Kelly's other half's.  Thanks Matt!

Here is Kelly and I at the beginning of the shoot!  Don't we look hot?  Yes, I'm a little biased, so what!

I love these next two shots!

Kelly Griffith had this idea.  I knew there was a reason for her joining our team!!!

Thank you so much to Kelly from Metz Photography!  You did an awesome job.  We are so happy with the way the pics turned out.  Love ya!  Erin

Brayden Michael Rishell

We had the pleasure of photographing the most fun loving little boy.  Meet Brayden.  He was 9 weeks old in these pictures, and had so much fun with us.  Brayden is the grandson of Cheryl whom I work with.  I call her my 2nd mom.  One of our new assistants, Kelly Griffith, tagged along with me to get these great photos!  Brayden was all smiles up until the end and he had about 5 outfit changes!  What a trooper!

Look at his beautiful eyes!

The many faces of Brayden.  He had us cracking up!

Daddy & Mommy

Couldn't pass this shot up!  I know we've done it before, but it is so cute!

I love this shot.  He just fit perfectly in their couch.

Can you tell that Brayden is going to be a football fan like his daddy?

And last but not least, Braden in his monkey costume for Halloween.  

Thank you Josh & Chris for letting us come into your home and photograph your beautiful little bundle of joy.  We had a blast.  Don't forget about us when he turns 1!
