Jenelle Yoder - A Rave Review

We are getting so many nice comments about the pictures you two took. A big comment we've heard is that everyone looks so happy and like they are having fun! A big complaint of a lot of moms I know is that when we take our kids to get their pictures taken, we, as moms, walk away stressed out and sweaty from trying to get our kids to smile. It seems the photo people just point and shoot and it's up to us to get the kids to smile. Ends up being exhausting. Our kids left your photo shoot and said, "That was fun!" and it was non-stressful for me!

Jill and Matt- A winter wonderland wedding

Despite the 2011 Blizzards, Jill and Matt were given a bright and beautiful day for their wedding. It was neat to be a part of their unique celebration, from the Renaissance theme, to the snowy ceremony. Here is a peak into their special day. More to come...

Winter Wonderland Wedding

Gearing up for a wedding tomorrow in the snow! I am sure it is going to be beautiful! Keep watching for photos. It is going to be a fun day with Jill and Matt.

Jeremy and Sarah Ann- June 13th, 2009

Kristen writing:
This summer I had the privelege of photographing my older brother, Jeremy's wedding.
Jeremy and Sarah Ann were married on a warm day in early June. Once again our family was blessed with great weather for an outdoor ceremony. Of course I would think they are a handsome couple but I will let you judge for yourself. Their hearts were so evident in their ceremony, I think this was one of my favorite weddings besides my own. Much love to them both.




The groomsman approve of the first kiss! ...and the bride and groom react to the surprise!

Donovan and Kayla 3-14-09

After talking with Kayla last week, I was reminded of her beautiful wedding last March. These photos deserved to be posted long ago. Donovan and Kayla have sinced moved to Virginia Beach where Donovan is stationed. This was my first wedding of someone in the service. The couple looked so nice together in all white. Many happy memories and best wishes for the future.








There were so many photos to choose from but this is one I just couldn't resist. What a priceless photo of a flower girl who doesn't quite realize the significance of the moment. : ) She just kept yawning over and over again. You may miss these moments on your wedding day, but we do our best to catch these for you so you can enjoy them for the rest of your life.

Tesia

I had a wonderful evening taking Tesia's senior pictures. The first location for her photo shoot was just perfect, a beautifully restored flour mill. The sun was setting perfectly providing a warm glow everywhere. Tesia, you are a beautiful young woman both inside and out!

The Weimers

What a beautiful fall morning! I thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Weimers and the beautiful fall foliage of Western Maryland. From having the girls jump up and down to loosen up and giggle a little bit to finding the perfect lighting on a georgeous day, the morning flew and we captured some great smiles and memories.
