When Hogges fly.

Billy is Malachi's friend and Matthew's brother. That alone makes him cool. But he gets more awesome..... Billy owns a plane!!! Need i say more?

Last Thursday me and Vanessa took the evening to go check out Billy's plane and hang out at Monroe airport with him. Billy gets extra points for having a fancy jacket. Of course we took our handy cameras and made a nifty photo shoot out of it. Van was super brave and took it a step further and went flying with Billy for a few minutes and check out our night sky. I, on the other hand remained grounded. Here are a few pics we took. (vanessa's is the first 3) It was too much fun!

Even after it got dark we got some fun shots inside the hanger.

Billy: you're awesome! Thanks for lending us you and your plane.... and being a fun model!

Girl / Fun Lens time!

My really close friend Vanessa came all the way from Spokane, Washington to visit us this week!! I've totally been looking forward to seeing her again since we both completed our School of Photography back in Jan 2008!!

Its been so much fun and encouraging having her here and we've been busy just lounging around and talking about what we love....Photography! So we pulled our selves off the couch long enough yesterday to explore my backyard with lil Hannah while Judah was getting his Happy nap.

I borrowed Van's canon 50mm lens and shot at f 1.8. (for the photo nerds out there)...all i can say is..not bad for a $50 lens.

Ummmmm

She's up to something...

Kisses for Nanna/pappa/grandpa/grandma!

Wes & Roshelle: Wedding

A couple weekends ago I was more than blessed with the chance to photograph an amazing wedding between my friends Wes and Roshelle. I've known Wes since my YWAM (Youth With a Mission) Adventures back in 2004.
Their love story was 8 years in the making!! Which made this wedding all the more beautiful!
Everything about their wedding meant something to them the best parts being in the details. The ceremony and reception took place at Lock Ridge Park and Furnace museum in Alburtis Pennsylvania, which really reminded me of Scotland cause I never knew such a place existed in PA.
The bridal party joined Wes with their instruments once they made their way down the isle playing a song Wes had written for his bride. It was pretty much the coolest thing I'd seen at a wedding. Below are my favorite photos that sum up the laughter, joy, celebration and of course, love. I hope you enjoy.

The ceremony closed with a worship service.

The beautiful bride Roshelle.





The bridesmaids.



These girls were barefoot..how awesome is that?




We found a sunflower field on the way to their wedding site!



The Groomsmen. They rock!























































































Wes and Roshelle: your love for each other makes my heart sing!!

There are more pictures here that I couldn't fit on my blog!!
