He is Four…

…and I am good with it now!  Alex was gone last weekend and it was a beautiful evening, so Elias and I went out to “the forest” to do some exploring and a short photos session.  Well, he didn’t know about the photo session:)  When I pulled out my camera, he said, “We don’t need that for our adventure.”  I told him I didn’t have any pictures of him when he was four and then he was ok with it.  I don’t know what I will do the next time and I already have a shoot in mind, so I better think of something!

LOVE THIS HAPPY BOY OF MINE!!

Kavan & Jenni {the wedding}

About a month ago, I had the opportunity to hang out with Gabe and Carin Black and photograph a BEAUTIFUL outdoor wedding.  Gabe and Carin are a fabulous husband/wife photographer team from my hometown.  I have had the privilege of getting to know them over the past year and admire their wedding photography, so I asked them if I could “follow” them while they shot a wedding.

Kavan and Jenni had an awesome fall day for an outdoor wedding.  Everything about this day was perfect!  Ok, on to the photos!

Jenni had the greatest style (down to every last detail) and was such a GORGEOUS bride!

 

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Lovgren and best wishes on a long and happy life together!  Thank you for letting me be a part of your special day!  Gabe and Carin, thank you for letting me spend the day with you two and see what goes into photographing a wedding!  I always look forward to seeing your amazing work!

Volesky Family

This is another family I met up with while we were back visiting in Williston.  We met up at my grandparents barn and the kids had a great time exploring!  Thanks for such a fun shoot!

We started out with the kiddos all dressed up in their new Christmas outfits, if I remember right they were from their Grandma.  Aren’t they darling?!

I love this picture, she was laughing so hard:)

Look at this beautiful family!

You are probably wondering where all the pictures of cute little Boston are.  He was teething and not feeling well, so he made it through the family shots and was DONE:)  I am catching up with him in a few weeks again, so I will post then!

My Baby is Turning FOUR Tomorrow…

I have gone back and forth on whether or not to use my business blog as my personal blog too.  Elias has actually had a blog since he was born.  I have not updated it since June 18th because photography has been keeping me busy.  I have hundreds of pictures I have done nothing with…a winter project for sure!  Anyway, I figured, what the heck, maybe I will share on here once and a while too:)

I have to say, I am having a hard time with this birthday!  I turned 30 a couple months ago and didn’t feel bad about that at all, but my baby turning four,  that is another story!

This year he wanted to have a Batman/Superhero party, so that is what we did!

Here is a picture of the invite:

Anna, Daniel, and Megan came dressed in costume to celebrate!  Elias was more than thrilled that Megan was going to be his “kick side”!

Elias has been wanting to get a pinata for awhile and was so excited to see it hanging in the garage for his party!

The boys all had a great time and they loved wearing their “super capes”!

Now for a flashback:)  Here is Elias the day he was born:

And here is he now:

Elias, four years ago today, I was in labor and about experience the greatest JOY of my life…being your mom!  I LOVE you to the moon and back sweet  baby boy, I mean BIG boy!
