Announcing....Mr & Mrs Rosston Becker!

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of photographing my friend's Sara's wedding in Defiance, OH. When I arrived at 11:00 am, she was a bit nervous with pre-wedding gitters...as we all are.

Sara are Ross began dating in early April of this year. They were engaged shortly after and were married within one week of their engagement. It came as a surprise to many, as Sara doesn't normally make quick decisions. Her reply..." He's such a wonderful guy...And when you know, you know."

Her nervousness was obvious when the clock struck 1:30, and the wedding party hadn't arrived, including the groom! Ross was waiting on his roommates, and showed up within a few minutes. We played the waiting game as the court prepared the papers. Their love is evident in the preceremony pictures. They exchanged a few quick kisses, and last minute advice.

It was a short and simple, but beautiful ceremony, just the way Ross and Sara had planned. Congrats, Ross & Sara on your wedding! May your love shine as bright as it did today for many years to come. Congrats, Alex on your family being complete.

So glad I could be part of your special day. I love you guys!

My new hairdo...

Last night, I made the mistake of coloring my own hair from a box. Well, It didn't turn out so good. So, I called my friend/cousin Janell to save me. We added blond highlights to it and it looks good now! I love it. Thanks, Janell!



We enjoyed dinner and then a campfire. When we got cold, we came inside and had a mini photo session. I taught Janell how to use my camera and she fell in love. Here's a few of her shots. Not bad for an amateur! lol

Shaun: Civilian & Military man

Tonight I had the pleasure of photographing an old family friend. Shaun turns 21 this month! Happy 21st, Shaun! But he will be serving our country as he will be in training for the National Guard. He leaves for two weeks beginning this Friday.

Shaun & I played catch up during our shoot. He's a great "kid" and is always fun to be around. Our shoot took place downtown Decatur in alley. I just love the architecture and the brick buildings. Shaun had some really great shots! Thanks, Shaun for your service to Our country and for willingness to be photographed. Hope you like your pictures! Thanks for being a trooper, Shaun! I wish you the best of luck in your bright future in the criminal justice field!
