Seems like a simple thing, right?  But when there’s a million things going on around you, it’s hard to just be in the moment and yourself.  Sarah and Korbin just love to be around each other and they instantly glow.  I love when I can step back and just watch and document the couple and how they interact.  They’re true genuine feelings for each and they’re true personalities.  So don’t stress about how you look…if you’re in love and totally smitten with each other it’ll show.  Just be yourself and enjoy your day!  It’s just the beginning of a wonderful life together!

Who needs board games when there’s a holga around!  My hubby and I spent Christmas with his family in Wall, South Dakota. But only after they were snowed in for three days.  Literally snowed in.  We drove up the day after they opened the roads and were shocked at the amount of snow.

Our dog Champ and I had a great time walking around taking pictures and playing in the snow.

In the slower months of winter, it can be difficult to keep motivated.  It’s cold outside, who would want to go out?  I have to say winter is not my favorite season, in fact it’s probably my lest favorite.  But I am motivating myself in this new year to get out there and photograph something everyday.  I tried this last year and did really pretty well until about April, then got to busy again.  But I think it really did help keep me focused and thinking as creatively as possible.

Happy 2010 everyone!  Here’s to making it the best year yet!

I love a couple that can’t seem to keep their hands off of each other the entire day.   You just got married you should be lovey dovey!  And it makes for beautiful images when a couple is always holding hand, hugging, and kissing!  You want to be able to look back 20 years from your wedding and go ‘ahhh we were so in love!  And we still are today!’  Show your affection, really you won’t regret it!

It’s December already!  It’s just incredible how fast the year goes by, and it just seems to get faster and faster.  Maybe it’s me just getting older?  I thought I’d do a fun little recap of 2009 and sharing some images that maybe didn’t get posted from varies events throughout the year.  This was a holga shot from Laura and James wedding last April.  I just adore holga, I can’t seem to get enough of them!

You might ask how do I get a great holga shot?   LUCK.  I’ve come up with no fool proof method.  Sometimes (rarely really) the focus is perfect, but more then likely it’s fuzzy at best.  But isn’t that what’s so great about it?  Total surprise…. I love surprises.
