Merry Christmas! {Hannah}

ok so i'm just a little early.  but here are some christmas cards!

There's something about the glow..{Awna}

Of a pregnant lady...

It's true. I am one of those girls.

One of those girls who can't help but stare when I see a pregnant lady.

There is something so beautiful about that cute little belly poking out from behind super cute maternity clothing.

I just love it.

So, of course I adored this shoot.

I headed to Dickinson the beginning of October to meet up with the Glasser's.

They are a great couple, and I can only imagine their little one will be adorable.

Here are some photo's from a very fun day!

PS...Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!?

Time Slipped Away..{awna}

We are still here.

Time just slips away when you get busy...

I got married last month, and I know Hannah was busy with all the wonderful help I recieved from her.

She also started college this fall at MSUM.

I hope she knows how much I miss her.

Whether we sat down to check out pictures online, or ran out for a quick photoshoot..

she became a wonderful friend, and I sure miss her company.

October has been a busy month for me-it is filled with two weddings, senior pictures and an amazing maternity shoot I cannot wait to show you all.

I hope you all are having a wonderful fall.

We will be back shortly, but in the meantime here is some of Hannah's AMAZING work displayed at our wedding. We loved it all!

The beautiful banner she drew up...what you don't see is that she added a little goldish/orange over the flowers so it glowed. Just wonderful!

And our wedding tree. This was the biggest hit of the day. People love it.

Guests left their thumbprint and signed their name beside it.]

It will be an art piece we treasure forever.

Thanks Hannah!

my first thank you

You're gonna miss this...{by Awna}

Mason and Kylie.

Two of the cutest little things ever,.

At least I think so.

However, my opinion may be skewed because I might just be related :)

A few weeks back, I had the chance to get together with these two and there wonderful mom for some quick photos. You can never have enough pictures of little ones, as they grow so fast.

You always miss the time you can't take back. So capture those moments now!

Here are a few of my favorites.

here is the finished product of jace and awna's wedding banner! the top picture might look a little funny...i sorta spliced the two together and skewed it so they'd match up. the banner was too big for me to take just one picture. i looks way better in the light. i added gold and bronze paint to it. it glitters so nice when the sunshine hits it. :)

Fall Back on Me {by Awna}

"Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams, and make them come true. If you need a little help, fall back on your family. They are always on your side."

This is such a fun, amazing family. One of them may look familiar. It's Hannah's family!

I ran out to their farm this past Sunday and we capture some great shots!

More to come..

Jazzy Love {by Awna}

Every girl has that one boy that she dreamed about marrying since she was 6.
Grant was my guy, and that Diana is sure lucky to have him. They make a wonderful couple.
Grant and Diana were married July 10th, at Lake Tschida. It was a small, intimate affair, and it was wonderful . The ceremony was incredible, filled with amazing music by Grant himself. He had written a piece just for his bride. Diana is a great public speaker, and during the reception she kept us laughing. The food was great, the laughter was plenty, and the love was shared. Just the way a wedding should be.
Here are some shots I captured though-out the night.

business card bliss *hannah joy*

here are some business cards i've been working for a friend! check out her website here.

this one is one of my favorites but it turned out too busy and small for a business card. it would be a cool poster though!
if anyone is interested in having me doing a business card or logo for them...feel free to let me know!

Summer Love--{by Awna}

It's me. I'm Awna, the photograher behind this fun little blog. I can't wait to work with you.

And you.

Families, seniors, businesses-We are here to make your holidays, graduations, and little moments in life easier and memorable. Let us help you, and have fun with us while doing so!

That being said, I adore everything there is about photography and taking pictures. Especially weddings. I love flowers, and wonderful dresses. Pretty scenery and men all dressed up. And of course, I am a sucker for love. With my own wedding date creeping up, I have had so much fun attending weddings this summer.

This one below is no exception. This is the wedding of Lacey and Chris. It was held in Minnesota, with the reception being located at a country club over looking the lake. Beyond breathtaking. Such a fun couple, with a zest for life. I wish them all the happiness in their days to come...

some of the most recent things i've been doing are for a wedding. i don't know if you know this...but the wonderful photographer behind this operation is getting married! and soon! she has asked to make a few things for it and i couldn't be happier to help out.

this is the work-in-progress banner they're planning to use at the reception. "happily ever after...jace & awna" i'm going to add branches and flowers to the bottom left and top right corners.

the wedding tree! i absolutely love this idea. instead of a guestbook, guests will stamp their thumbprints onto the branches and sign their name. it's going to be so cute! and BIG! you can't tell here put the poster i drew this on is huge.
