I have no kids. Well, aside from hundreds or thousands of teenagers who have grown to be adults since I began public school teaching.
Besides those: zero.
And it has been so cool to see Brynn grow into a little girl.
Seriously. That’s not a baby. This is a little girl we’re talking about people! Watch her move and groove!
Seriously, you are awesome!
And classy!
And your parents are, like, the best.
You totally dig the swing right now. So, yeah…
You are beautiful and smart. Brynn for President!
I loved having fun with you all!
Until next time,
Columbus Family Photography
I have successfully finished more than a week of summer break without going to the pool. Well, I wouldn’t call that a success, but I am pumped to have been able to dust off the old camera for my first summer Columbus family photography session! Remember this doll?
She’s about to be a big sister! So, we got together at their fave park, Inniswood, and snapped some pics of the family enjoying their last little bit as a family of three.
She sure is moving and grooving now!
I. Love. That. Hair.
Look familiar?
It should, you avid blog readers, you!:
I love this haphazard family portrait because it’s real:
Baby belly laughs are the best, aren’t they?
Barthas, I can’t wait to meet baby Whitney next month! :)
Happy growing,
I am so excited to be involved in the capturing of this proposal! Here are the deets on my first ever proposal photography session!
On May 11, 2014, I met Jacob, a friend and co-laborer of ours, at an undisclosed location. The purpose? To practice his proposal! Emily, of course, had no clue this was about to happen.
So, on May 18, 2014, my husband and I traveled for the exciting event–at Red Trabue Nature Preserve in Dublin, Ohio. My husband was an awesome helper.
We placed his message in the bottle on the bench by the location he’d planned to propose.
The evening was beautiful.
We waited for Jacob’s red VW to drive down this entryway.
It seemed to take forever.
And then they arrived. He walked down the path, just as we planned. When they got to the stone bench, Jacob had to encourage Emily to read the letter.
She was confused for a while. But, from our vantage point, she seemed to figure out what was about to happen. And then, the magic started!
She said yes!
And the people rejoiced!
Then we popped out of the bushes to capture the celebration!
And, of course, the ROCK! Dang, girl! Gorgeous!
Jacob designed the ring. The main stone was his mother’s. What an honor, Emily!
Jacob and Emily are high school sweethearts. They often go to the lake for family trips and Jacob once joked that he’d propose under a cottonwood tree there.
Long story short: They couldn’t be there soon enough! Jacob couldn’t wait until another trip to the lake.
So, he made this, which is what Emily read before realizing he was about to pop the question.
Love it!
Jacob and Emily, congrats! I can’t wait to capture your love more in the coming years. May God bless your union and the process thereof! We are so excited for you!
Thanks to my wonderful husband for capturing video!
Happy loving,
I can’t stand the cuteness!
Happy Day,
Today, I hung with the Barthas for some photographs. Mom’s almost a month away from being due to deliver baby girl number two! Excited to see their family grow.
In the mean time, we got in a few image of this mover and shaker. Isn’t she a doll?
More to come!
Love,
Check out how much this new grandpa is excited!
So excited to get these images to these proud grandparents!
Love,
