Pure White Peony

I love this peony in our front yard perennial bed... it is pure white and smells like Ivory Soap :-)

Ralph Waldo Emerson on "Friendship"

(Thanks to my friend Tangie Sheets of Life Reflections by Tangie for posting this quote on Facebook the other day... I knew I had to use it on a flower photo when I read it).

Humble Princess

I recently had a senior portrait session with Michaela, a senior at Olympia High School. Three words come to mind when I see Michaela... First and foremost, faith... she has a deep passion for Christ and desires to go into youth ministry after college. Second, orator... she's an award winning speaker and participates in theatre productions. Third, confidence... she just has it.

The below image is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! When I first saw it straight out of my camera it spoke one word to me... humbleness.

• Humbleness in faith
• Humbleness in speech
• Humbleness in confidence

Beautiful image... Beautiful girl... Beautiful heart.

Thank you, Michaela, for allowing me to capture you... and good luck at Olivet!!!

Capturing Leah

I can honesty say that I've never had a photo session that I didn't enjoy... But, there are those clients that I can hardly wait until they want photos taken again. Leah is one of those clients... she's just plain FUN to capture.

Leah is a Freshman at Heartland Community College and performs locally in theatre productions and takes advantage of singing opportunities whenever she can. She has an excellent voice... One that you can listen to all evening long. Look for her name to appear in Twin City theatre productions and at local "singing spots."

In the meantime, enjoy perusing these images from her most recent photo session.

Sweet and Lovely
