Dear Lord, thank you for gathering our family together, but please allow us to like each other for an hour or so. Family pictures haven’t ever really been my thing and I really don’t wanna make anyone cry this year, so if you could help me out, that’d be great. Each year, by some miracle, […]

Both whimsical & country vibes overwhelmed their session as they smiled at each other throughout the shoot. It was a hot summer day at Riverfront Park in Windsor. The perfect location for Andrew & Stephanie’s engagment photos. Their love was shining brighter than the summer sun  and it was an honor to photograph it. Andrew […]
