Gabe and Threasa

Right before Christmas I had the pleasure of photographing Gabe and Threasa and their sweet family. They are engaged to be married in May of this year so we did some engagement pictures as well as some family Christmas photos!

Isn't this little guy adorable!! See his new born pictures here. 

Lillian's 1st Birthday

I have been photographing all sorts of events, portraits, objects for advertising, etc for nearly 13 years but I am always excited when someone wants me to be a part of their special event to photograph. 

This past weekend I was invited to Miss Lillian's 1st birthday to capture the day! The Trapp family is so funny, including little Addison (Lillian's big sister). 

Here are a few pictures from Lillian's special day.

Mommy and Daddy opening presents...and trying on Lillian's bows!

Lillian, I hope you had a fantastic 1st birthday! Thank you to the Trapp family for allowing Ray and I to be a part of your special day!

Trip down Memory Lane

Typically a trip down memory lane never ends well, but tonight I did just that but it brought a smile to my face! I sat down at my desk computer, mostly because I needed to use the scanner, and ended up browsing through old, VERY old photography. Not sure how many of you know this but I actually started out in advertising photography for a local magazine. I like to think I have come a long way since then but I thought I would share a few of my favs and while I am sure most some of the companies ads posted are out of business now, there may a few that get a little extra internet publicity! 

Advertising photography is so different than anything else I have ever done, but I enjoyed it! Hope you enjoyed my trip down memory lane as well! :)
