Patrick { Senior }

Oh Patrick, you're such a smiler. :) I took Patrick's family photos a few years ago, then photographed his sister's wedding last year, so we've known each other for quite awhile. Yet another kid that I can't believe is a senior already! Aside from making him sit in a sticker patch, we had a fun session earlier this week and got some great photos! Here's a sneak peek.

Micah & Robert { Married }

What an amazing, amazing day. First off, this wedding was so beautiful. I wouldn't have done anything differently. Perfect location, perfect ceremony, perfect details, perfect love. Secondly, it's super fun to shoot a friend's wedding with so many attendees and family that I know! Micah and Robert's wedding was definitely one of my favorites, and despite the heat, I think we got some awesome photos. The ceremony and reception were held at Micah's parents house in the country outside of town and they had the perfect setup. It totally reminded me of the movie Father of the Bride. So fun! Both families were so excited about the marriage, and the part God plays in their lives. Micah was a laid back bride and even got a grass stain on her dress, but just went with it! I could go on and on about this wedding but I'll let the photos tell the story (for the most part...).

Getting ready inside the farm house Micah grew up in.

Their perfect first meeting, full of smiles and tears and hugs and kisses.

The photo on the right below is Micah and her three siblings and their cousin. Scott, the token male is probably a professional groomsman (though he was a bridesman in this wedding)...he was one of my hubby's attendants at our wedding!

The ceremony was held on the front lawn.

And the reception was near the house, poolside.

My hubby took a break from shooting to DJ with Scott. And the beautiful mother-of-the-bride, Kelle took a break to cool off in the pool.

It got dark just as the reception was starting.

A sweet moment between Micah's parents during the parent dance.

Heather & Chris { Maternity }

Heather and Chris were a super fun couple to spend the evening with last night. They're having a little girl, who's due to arrive in mid October and I'll bet she's gonna be a little cutie (even if she's nameless for now)! :) Heather makes such a cute pregnant lady, and Chris is hilarious, so they made my job quite easy. Here's a sneak peek!

The Stehleys { Family }

This session almost didn't happen! We had to reschedule once due to rain and then our makeup session was scheduled for yesterday morning...right after we'd had a crazy night of rain, hail, and tornado warnings. Luckily, Emie made the judgment call to go ahead, and we had a beautiful morning. These two kiddos are some of the cutest you'll ever see, and they had bunches of fun at the park with their golf clubs, swings, and chasing geese! Here's a sneak peek.

Monica & Tracy { Maternity }

Monica is having her second baby and it's a girl! She came to Lindsey back when she was pregnant the first time for maternity photos, and look how big Bennett is now. I love that she has documented her pregnancies so well...the photos will be so precious to look back at years down the road. We had some crazy humidity during the second part of our shoot last night, but I don't think the sweat showed up in the photos! Check out these cute cute people!

Things Lindsey Says...

In reference to J.Crew's website:

"I want to adopt all the children from their website. And have them walk around my backyard. I want them to speak a made up language too."

Amanda & Kevin { Engaged }

Amanda and Kevin's original session day was rained out due to looming storms and crazy wind. We had a much calmer day on Friday to take their photos, despite the humidity. These two were cracking me up during their session with their seemingly already old-married-couple-like antics. I loved it. Kevin wasn't too excited about taking these photos, but I don't think it was too bad for him...right Kevin? :) Here are my faves!

Paige & Kate { 1 Year }

Paige and Kate first came to us back in February when they were almost 7 months old. I helped Lindsey out a bit with their first shoot, and was excited to see them again and to be able to take their 1 year photos! These two cuties have grown up so much and have quite the little personalities. I was grateful that they look so different from each other because I was able to keep track of who was who! (And check out their adorable chairs...I want one for Sutton!)

Perfect Book { Sample Album }

Towards the beginning of the summer, we received a sample Perfect Book that I'd designed and ordered using images from Kit and Jeff's wedding. It turned out fabulously! This is the album that's included in our Essential wedding package...it features a beautiful leather cover and glossy pages that make the photos POP!
