Football boys

I had the idea to do this photo shoot for an ad to put in the school's football program, and these guys were very cool to participate. I asked the boys in our youth group (for those of you who don't know, my husband is a youth pastor) who are on the football team at school. My husband is one of the assistant coaches for the team, and he used to play in high school, and he says that he wishes he had pictures like this of himself from when he was playing! :) I think the pics turned out really awesome! The first photo above is the ad for the program.
These below are just fun ones we did for the heck of it! Here are Kendall, Tyler & Kyle:
I think they look like gladiators or something! :) I think they are actually a lineman, quarterback, and a runningback, but just being married to a coach does NOT mean I speak the language! lol Everything they were talking about with Johnny during the shoot was seriously going over my head. I know, I'm not cool! ha ha
This one (above) is one of my favorites, I put it on the front of my website!
I love this last one too, it was hard choosing between it and the one I'm using for the program. But the boys voted for the other one since it was shot through the mask. Anyway, I'm excited to have a cool ad in the program this year! Thanks boys!

Jennifer & Eric's wedding

Well, it's back to school time, and my family is starting to have a routine again. Routine sounds boring, but I think it is going to help me immensely when it comes to getting work done! :) Maddie Kate officially started 2nd grade today! Crazy!
I finished up these wedding photos this morning and wanted to post a few for Jennifer & Eric:
These glasses were funny! (the groom is an eye doctor!)
I love almost-kissing pictures!
I like this one of the flower girl handing petals to the man in the pew (maybe a grandfather?) Kids are so funny!
Thanks for letting me help capture your big day! It was fun!

I also had a double Senior Session this weekend, so I thought I'd post a peek for Jessica & Jessica:

A few from today...

I had two sessions today, so as I am currently in the habit of posting one photo from each session immediately, here they are!
First off, Mylie is 18 months old now! This photo is entitled, "Daddy, can I PLEASE have a puppy?"And here's Senior Michelle:

I promise, one of these days I will get all caught up! :)

The running is still going well, last night (I have been running in the evenings because it's cooler then, and I'm a whinypants about running in the heat) I ran 30 minutes straight for the first time! That is a HUGE accomplishment for me! I actually think I could have run longer, but I stopped because I didn't want to hurt my feet or anything. I am planning on keeping it up! I'm actually enjoying it a bit, which I can't believe. I have never ran in my life, I never played sports that required running or anything (actually the only sport I ever played was church league softball for a couple of summers in high school...does that count?:)
This past weekend we had Ava's 3rd birthday party, Cohen was dedicated at church, and Maddie Kate was baptized! It was a very big weekend for our family! I am planning on doing a huge photo post about everything we did this summer, so I'll include those then.
Well, I really don't have time to be blogging, as you can see from the last 3 posts, I've got my work cut out for me! :)

One for Loryn!

8 sessions & a wedding!

I figured the way the sessions are piling up that I had better do a quick post of all the sessions that are currently waiting to finish being proofed (plus one wedding). It's quite a variety! Here they are in no particular order! First, Kensi, Kade, & Baby Kylie:
