Jonas and Erin's Engagements

So back to work....
Last week, I had the privilege of meeting up with Jonas and Erin for their engagement pictures at French Park. They were such a lovely couple and a lot of fun to work with. Jonas really knows how to make her smile and laugh - which I LOVE!!! Their wedding is coming up in just a few short weeks, so I better get these posted before it's too late! Enjoy....

Our BIG announcement

So yeah, this happened....



We could not be more thrilled! I am currently 14 weeks pregnant, due March 30. You may be asking yourself, "Wait, didn't you just have a baby?" Yes, you would be correct. Seth and baby Robbins dos will only be 16 months apart. "Did you plan this?" Sort of. We wanted our peanuts to be close in age (18-24 months apart if possible!), but the Lord had a different plan in mind - and isn't His always perfect? After some fertility struggles with Seth, getting an unexpected blessing was just that - A BLESSING!! Our plan, as of right now, is to not find out the sex. I'm 99.9% sure I do not want to find out, but I have to get through my 20 week ultrasound to say that I'm 100% sure. That's going to be a tough one!

So anyways, that's our big news! Thanks for sharing in this with us! :)

Steve & Maria's wedding

It's finally here! Steve and Maria were married on September 12 at St. Francis de Sales in Hyde Park with a reception following at the Grand in Covington. It was a gorgeous day, with a gorgeous couple. The wedding party had to handle the heat, but they did very well. Maria had an absolutely beautiful gown, one unlike any other I had ever seen. And Steve looked very James Bond-esque with his tux and bow tie - definitely a good looking couple.

The bride and I actually went to high school together. Never in a million years did I think I'd be photographing her wedding back on graduation day! It's amazing how things turn about.... :)

Here are just a few from our wonderful day together...

Carrie & Peter's Reception

It's not every day a bride gets to wear her wedding dress twice! Don't we wish we could all do that? For Carrie, this was an option. Carrie and Peter got married down in Jamaica in late August (oh, how I wish I could have photographed that!!). But they wanted to throw a little shindig for their friends and family back home. That's where I come in. I had the privilege of meeting and getting to photograph this couple last weekend (September 11). They had their reception at the Kings Island Courseview Pavilion, right on the golf course.

We spent the first hour roaming the course, dodging golf balls, and getting some awesome shots! I really enjoyed working with this couple! Carrie was such a doll and a dream bride to work with - SHE was the one who suggested to lay on the ground. Pays to wear your wedding dress twice, I guess! If only I could get all brides to lay on the ground! (But brides who won't - don't worry, I'm not mad at you that you don't - I don't think I would have on my wedding day!).

The night went on to hold a normal reception (filled with lots of cute kids!). Here are just a handful that I picked out to show you from the evening....

Thank you, Carrie and Peter, for letting me photograph you guys and for being such a joy to work with!
