Gina and Ace

Gina and Ace were a joy to photograph! Ace has his mom's beautiful brown eyes and he was so sweet and full of joy. They had fun looking at the butterflies and playing in the children's area at the Botanical Gardens.

Mary and Chris

Chris' family is from Scotland, so they dressed in traditional clothing and had some wonderful dancing. Mary and Chris danced the ever sultry tango for their first dance. Congratulations to a wonderful couple!

Stout Glass

Paul Stout, owner of Stout Glass www.stoutglass.com makes luminous, beautiful glass sculptures, sinks, tiles, and wall hangings. The glassblowing process is amazing, labor intensive, and super hot! I can see why they do most of their production in the winter. The pieces require years of experience and a cohesive team to create. Check out Paul's work on his website and consider adding a piece to your home.

Samantha

Samantha did a great job modeling for her senior photos. She had fun splashing in the fountain, making some dynamic shots. Best wishes to her in her studies at the U of A this year!

Peru!

My husband and I went to Peru in June. The highlights were definitely Machu Picchu and the floating islands on Lake Titicaca. The people were very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing - really really good! Photos cannot begin to express the magic and beauty of Machu Picchu.

Ashley & Will

Ashley and Will had a beautiful wedding and timed it just right so we had a gorgeous sunset for photographs. They are a very sweet and fun couple and I wish them all the best.

Michelle & her girls

Michelle and her two girls are absolutely beautiful, charming, and full of energy.

They generously bought this portrait session at an auction to benefit Peyton Rudd, a 7 year old girl who was undergoing treatments for cancer. Sadly, she passed on in October. My prayers and hopes for peace go out to her family.

A German Christmas

My husband and I spent Christmas in Germany this year with his family. These are pictures from the Christmas markets which are full of arts and crafts, hot spiced wine, and wonderful food. Very quaint!
