They are brother-in-law & sister-in-law. This past January was Jim’s 75th birthday, and his family decided to throw him …

Brian & Ashley Wedding | Decatur, IL | Wedding Photography
I was nervous and excited as Ryan and I headed to Decatur on Saturday, June 18th. Excited because we were headed to Brian and Ashley’s wedding at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, and nervous… mostly due to the ominous grey rain clouds hovering in the sky, but also because it was my first time meeting the …
Studio 7 Salon & Day Spa | Decatur, IL | Commercial Photography
A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to get to pop in and take some pics of the girls at Studio 7 Salon & Day Spa while they were working. I go to the lovely Molly Hise to get my hair done regularly, and she is just amazing! So I was more than just …
Healthy Cells Magazine | Dr. Thomas Rohde | Renew Total Body Wellness Center | Decatur, IL
Last week I was lucky enough to get to do another shoot for Healthy Cells Magazine, and this time it was for someone I was familiar with – Dr. Thomas Rohde. Before I got married and moved to Sullivan, I was a patient at Dr. Rohde’s office, Renew Total Body Wellness Center. At the time …

Moving Forward… Joel’s College Graduation
Yesterday I was lucky enough to be able to take the trip down to Greenville, IL with my family to watch my younger brother, Joel, graduate from college. It was a very nice ceremony in one of the gyms on campus. The only downside is there was no air conditioning in the building and it …
Healthy Cells Magazine | Edna Mae & Walt | Springfield, IL
Becky from over at Healthy Cells magazine called me last week and asked me if I’d be up for another editorial shoot for them. Of course I said YES! So Monday morning I hopped in the car and drove to Springfield to meet Edna Mae and her husband, Walt, in their beautiful home. I had …
Meet Kit… | Pet Photography
Meet Kit…. Yes. This is my dog. He very much enjoys tearing around our yard at top speed… especially when he know I’m trying to take pictures of him. He’s an ornery little dog… I managed to get this shot during the 5 seconds he sat still. Notice how he’s not looking at me? When …
