Recently while I was shooting in Indiana, I had the pleasure of photographing one of my favorite teens...

Makayla.

I have 100 reasons why I think she is special..

but the one that sticks out most today is,

she is a beautiful mother of one darling little girl!

Not only is she a mom, she has stayed in school and is going to graduate this year.

I couldn't be more proud of her for that!!!!

What determination and strength she has possessed...just warms my heart!

beautiful heart and beautiful soul...

Makayla...

thank you for such an amazing session!

You are one of my favorite people on earth :)

Keep staying strong and shining bright...

you are doing so much for that sweet baby girl!

{Thomas, WTSP 2011 Senior}

Meet Thomas....who is going to be soon training to be one of America's finest!

I have had the pleasure of capturing a few of USA young military men this year, 

and each time I feel blessed to have done so!

It takes a very special person to dedicate his/her life for our freedom...

Thomas is a recent high school graduate, and will be heading off to support our fine country 

in the AIR FORCE!

He was all smiles and a definate joy to work with.

I sure wish more young men would be so easy to capture!

THANK YOU 

for a wonderful session Thomas, 

and I wish you the very best in you career with the Air Force!

God Bless you and your family :)

{Kaylin / KHS Senior Model 2012}

Meet Kaylin....our KHS Senior Model 2012!

LOVE her personality & her "farm girl" ways :)

She looks so much like her mom!! Is that ok that I say that Kaylin?  It's a good thing :)

Kaylin is a very special client this year for me!

I know her family...her mom use to take care of me when I was a little pain in the butt!

...and I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to capture her gorgeous daughter Kaylin for her!

THRILLED!!!

I giggled thru the entire session, and I am sure Kaylin has some fond memories of me as well...

esp the one with the cricket or various bugs I was trying to avoid...

or dare I say the "snake" she joked with me about that almost gave me 

a heart attack!

Yep, it is hard to believe that I grew up in the little farm town of Kouts!

Or that I use to help my friends on their farms...(which was hilarious I am sure)

Because I am most definately a CITY GIRL at heart...and I am positive Kaylin and Amy can 

tell you that!

Thank you so very much Kaylin for a beautiful session that I will def never forget!

Can't wait till our next one on the tracks :)

Enjoy!
