McKenzie Turns One! Lifestyle Session at South Park

/by

There were several times during the editing process for this recent lifestyle session where I thought my heart would burst out of my chest. I am not kidding. I’m talking about joy that made it hard to keep my butt in my desk chair. I should also mention that I had a McLatte on my way home from dropping my son off at our sitter’s house so I could get some work done. But this family just oozes cuteness…and they are celebrating little McKenzie’s first birthday with a lifestyle session at South Park.

And I know that the way I’m writing this might sound a little braggadocios, but let me stop you right there. I can’t take credit for this gorgeous family or the lovely surrounds, and I won’t take credit for the skills God has given me to capture these sweet moments. I just feel blessed getting to be a part of all of this loveliness and want to say, thank you, Jesus!

Ok, thanks for sticking with me. I just felt like I really had to say that. Here are some more photos…

Sara & Nick’s Wedding at Chestnut Ridge Golf Resort

/by

I’m so happy to post about Sara and Nick’s wedding that took place about two weeks ago at Chestnut Ridge Golf Resort in Blairsville, Pa. The resort is gorgeous, but what really made the day was the affection that Sara and Nick share. They’re pretty smitten with one another and that makes my job so much fun.

We started at the Hampton Inn which is just down the road from the resort.

Erica and Matt’s Lingrow Farm Wedding

/by

Erica and Matt must be pretty special because the skies literally cleared the moment Erica’s Dad walked her down the aisle. We were this-close to having to go with their plan B and move the ceremony indoors, but gorgeous sunshine broke through the rain clouds and even lasted long enough for their photos after the ceremony!

We began the day with Erica at Lingrow Farm in the cottage where the ladies were getting ready.

Erica and Justin’s Wedding at Cranberry Highlands

I’m happy to post my first wedding of the season and even more happy for this lovely couple! When I first met Erica and Justin, I really loved getting to know them. They’re so easy-going and kind with one-another and their wedding day was no different. It was a real joy to be a part of it.

We started with Erica and her bridesmaids at A Sense of Eden Salon and Spa in Bridgewater. If you haven’t been there, I highly recommend it!
