Lauren and Derek are so sweet together. They have a confident kind of love. Not flashy, but comfortable.  Lauren has a major obsession with all things Disney so Derek proposed at Disney World. Derek needed a hair cut so Lauren (a hairstylist) cuts it. They meet each other where they need to be met. They […]

Spring is FINALLY here and it was so good to get outside and shoot some portraits last weekend!  Collin is a senior and is one of those guys that you can just tell is destined for big things! He is planning to study theater in school, so it was fitting that some of his portraits […]

Printemps: (French) Spring So in love with this shoot styled by Alex Meyer Events at the “For the Love of Film Workshop” with Matoli Keely Photography and Kristen Lynne Photography.

We’ve designed albums for our business in the past and we’re in the middle of designing our own wedding album right now (!!!) but this was the first album we’d ever designed for one of our couples.  We have used Millers Lab in the past and have always been impressed by their quality and customer […]

Micah is my younger brother by almost four years. He is a senior in high school and is heading off to college in the fall.  Micah is basically a professional at everything he does. He’s an amazing athlete (a triple sport athlete- baseball, soccer, AND basketball… whew!), a great student, and has a huge heart […]

We just had our first married Christmas. That’s kind of a big deal from what we’ve been told (and from how many times we’ve been asked, “how was your first married Christmas?”) Bethany and I were the first married in both of our families so we know that we’ve only gotten a tiny taste of […]

It’s been a full year to say the least. Full of BIG moments (like saying ‘I do’) and small (like deciding how to spend our first Christmas as a married couple). We’ve traveled, we’ve celebrated, we’ve laughed, we’ve prayed, we’ve grieved, we’ve learned, and we’ve loved. We’ve had a full year and to be honest, […]

We’ve had an insane year- B moved, we planned a wedding, we travelled, we got married, we went on our honeymoon, I moved in with B, we grew our business a crazy amount, and now we are celebrating our first ever Christmas as a married couple! Whew! It’s been a challenge to say the least […]

Growing kids, well behaved dogs, clients that feel like friends… a Sunday afternoon with these guys was GOOD! We’ve had a lot of repeat clients this year and we’ve loved it! It’s been a dream come true to actually get to know our families and couples instead of just showing up, taking a few shots, […]

(Actually Brittany […]
