Stephanie + Cole { Engagements }

Whew! Yesterday was a hot one! Amid our buckets of sweat, I managed to have an amazing engagement session with Steph and Cole. Steph was super worried about their photos because (as she put it) she and Cole are not "models" but HOLY COW they looked awesome. After a couple shots downtown, we headed over to a park for some softer-feeling photos. Steph trekked through thigh-high weeds in heels and loved it. And Cole was the perfect accessory. I also found out these two go to my church! Small world. Alright Steph...are you ready for this? Deep breaths, they turned out great. :)

Diesel

My little dog came with me to the studio today! He's not fond of having his picture taken...does this look a little forced? :)

Jeanette & Daniel { Wedding }

Through the crazy wind and heat, Jaclyn and I photographed Jeanette and Daniel's amazing wedding on Saturday. The wedding was out at Cowtown, which I've decided is the perfect venue for a wedding. We had so many wonderful photo ops, we didn't even get around to all of them. Jeanette got dressed in an old schoolhouse that was so fun, and she was very adamant that she wanted to stray from the traditional for everything. I was more than happy to oblige. After the ceremony in the quaint church, we took time for a few sunset photos before we started the dance. Here are the many faves!

The rest of Jeanette & Daniel's photos will be available online in 3-5 weeks. Please send me an email at gina@gingerootstudios.com to be notified when they're up.

Veiled

I'm about to do a huge blog post from the amazing wedding we had this weekend, but I just had to show you this funny shot that my wonderful second shooter Jaclyn took of me. I've never worn a veil while shooting a wedding before...there's a first time for everything! :)

Gina's New Schedule

Inquiring minds want to know: Gina...what will your schedule be after the baby's here?

Well ladies and gentlemen, it's just been decided. I will be working all day Tuesdays and Thursdays at the studio beginning August 17th. That means I will only be taking appointments and sessions during those days, so please help me out and plan ahead. Thanks!

Also, I've extended my maternity leave, so the new dates are June 18 through August 16. This will probably change depending on when the little man decides to actually come, but I just wanted to cover all my bases.

Questions, comments, want to get your session on my calendar? Email me! gina@gingerootstudios.com

Things Lindsey Says...

"No. I'm busy. I have to take sticks off of people's heads."

Avery is ONE!

And I can't believe it! Avery is Ginger's (and Joe's!) daughter, so she's one of our mascots here at the studio. You may remember that I posted pictures when she was born and then again when we did her newborn photos. This year has gone so fast! I just love her to pieces, she has the cutest little personality and she's saying a lot of words now. It was fun photographing a baby I knew because she would walk right up to me and want me to hold her. So cute. Here are a few faves to tide you over, Ginger!

Kisses from cousin Malachi:

In the photo on the right, she's signing "more" because she wanted to swing more. :)

Ashlee & Grady { Wedding }

Ashlee and Grady are finally married! They've been together since junior high, I believe, and on Saturday, they finally became husband and wife. Their wedding was in Hesston, which has lots of beautiful places for photos...I always love going there. The rain held off for the most part, and provided us with some amazing cloud cover for their photos. After the ceremony, we made a quick stop at the golf course (since Grady is an avid golfer), and then went on to the reception where we were able to spend a bunch of time with the couple for some awesome shots. Thanks for being so laid back and easy-going, you two. Have fun in Vegas!

The rest of Ashlee & Grady's photos will be available online in 3-5 weeks. Please send me an email at gina@gingerootstudios.com to be notified when they're up.
