Remember Prom?

In some ways, Prom is much a do about nothing important and yet, who doesn’t like getting dressed up for Prom? For most attendees it’s a fun event that produces a hole in the wallet but, memories for years.

Winter Has Arrived

Even though Fall is my favorite season, I also enjoy Winter tremendously….which might sound odd. The colder weather invigorates me; I enjoy wearing Winter clothes; and I simply love the holidays that come with Winter. Overall, I appreciate the change of seasons. Each season invokes different feelings, emotions, and experiences.

Falling for Fall

There is something special about each season in the midwest. I do not like humidity or extremely hot weather and therefore, Fall is my favorite season for both its weather and its colorful beauty.

Colorado!

There are so many places in the world that I would like to see, but before I venture too far away, there is plenty in the United States to satisfy my traveling desires. So far, Colorado is one of my favorite vacation spots! I never get tired of those majestic mountains, crystal clear lakes, or the less humid climate.


Mother and Her Baby

Don’t all of us Mothers love our babies? The bonding between Mommy and her baby starts in the womb and becomes stronger with each bump, roll, and kick. The “magic” of birth can’t be topped when Mother finally gets to meet her baby. Look at the love in this young Mom’s face as she gazes upon her child.

A Family Photo Gig

It’s not always easy to gather a family for a yearly family portrait, especially when the family is grown! It’s also not an easy thing to photograph a family when the family is large. If it’s just a Mom and Dad with their two point five kids, maybe not so challenging. With this beautiful family I had challenges because of its size and the range of ages. Over all, I was pleased.

Christmas Memories

Christmas means different things to different people. It is my favorite season and when I think of Christmas I think of Christmas music, lights, parties, baking, shopping for the perfect gift, and celebrating with family. Please make sure you click on each photo to see the next one! (P.S. The one of my Grandson and me was taken on January 1, 2018.)

Phoenix

There is a myth that little girls are sweeter than little boys. In some cases that might be true, but not in most cases. Tiny people, in general, are the sweetest human beings you're going to meet!

Will You Marry Me?

Grant decided to propose to his Sweetheart of seven years. He creatively did this by giving her a digital photo scrapbook showing their history together. He wanted to "continue their story" and so on the last page printed, "Will you marry me?"

Victoria did not know that I was photographing her and Grant. 

Lake Michigan

Lake Michigan is one of the prettiest lakes you're going to see when visiting the city of Chicago! Its greenish hue along with its vastness makes you forget that you're at a lake and not the ocean. It's definitely a "must see" when visiting down town Chicago!

Loose Park

Loose Park is probably one of the prettiest parks in Kansas City. Its vast rolling land is filled with flowers, trees, and a beautiful pond with swimming geese and ducks.
