I started thinking the other day… I’m always posting the latest wedding album designs on the blog for you to see, but you rarely get to see the other books I’ve laid out. So I thought today I’d show you a Story Book we designed for a couple from Effingham who came to me for …

I was super excited to do Charlie’s Three Year Old session! I’ve been taking pictures of this little guy since he turned a year old, and I look forward to doing his pictures every year! It was a little bit chilly out (but warmer than you’d expect for February) when we decided to venture out …
