Attention Christmas Shoppers!!!

Guess what? I have a great gift idea.......... it could be for the family who hasn't had photos done in years, your friend who just had a baby, the newly engaged couple and well maybe even crazy aunt Sue...... just joking! It's a Philosophy Photography Gift Certificate!! You can make it out for any amount you like {all that info goes on the back of the card} and I will honor the G.C. for one whole year! It's definitely better than a tacky sweater, a gimmicky gadget or a snuglee blanket, I apologize if anyone has purchased the Snuglee Blanket but I think it's the craziest thing I have seen! Happy Christmas shopping!

Jennifer & Real ~ Married

For the past couple of weeks the weather here has been fantastic. Above 0, leaves on the ground and sunshine!! Jen and Real were married on an absolutely beautiful day. These two are such a sweet couple who love to laugh together and that is such a great quality to have, we are often far too serious. Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your special day!!

Miss E is absolutely adorable.... Mommy's favorite accessory!!

Holly & Robb ~ A Halloween Wedding

This was such a fun wedding that I know I will never forget! As we headed to our outdoor location for pictures, it was windy, snowy and cold! Through it all Holly stood outside in her strapless dress with a smile on her face and her new husband by her side and I think that speaks volumes about the kind of people that Holly and Robb are! Thank you guys for toughing it out through the cold, it was definitely well worth it and I love the winter look of the pictures! This post is picture jam packed as I had to include some of the costumes from the supper, {the guests were invited to don their costumes for the evening}. Here a a few of my favorites from the day. Be sure to click on the pictures to supersize them!

Holly you are stunning!

I couldn't resist posting a few of the costumes

Loved this cake!!

Peyton Ruby

There is nothing in the world that compares to the absolute perfection of a brand new baby. I was so excited when asked to do this session for a few reasons, I genuinely adore this family {Miss Peyton is surrounded by love} and when Mom gets behind my camera it's like magic!! You may recognize her from my blog header!! In these photos Peyton is almost 7 weeks and just under 7 pounds of pure loveliness, I could have photographed her all day! Mom is a photographer as well so I must say i'm a tad nervous and hope that you guys love these as much as I do!! With that being said meet Miss Itty Bitty Peyton Ruby!!

Still Here

It's been a while...... I know, I know! My life has been so incredibly busy for the past little while I feel as though my head is spinning. I have been constantly reminding myself, one day at a time and one task at a time and it will all get done. Here are a few shots of my girl that make me feel all warm and fuzzy when it's so chilly outside! I also wanted to thank everyone for all of the lovely words, e-mails, love and comments. It honestly means so much to me and keeps me going! Hope everyone is surviving this crazy cold and flu season, love to you all!
