The Best Mommy Ever

Today is my mommy's birthday. And she is the best mommy ever. Okay, I might be biased - and yes, I'm in college and still call my mother "mommy". But that's because she is. She's the amazing woman who raised me and taught me everything I know. Yes, everything. She is absolutely beautiful - inside and out. And her love for God and everyone around her is by far the most incredible thing about her. Unfortunately, I don't have access to any embarrassing...

Cecilia and Chris - Lancaster, Ohio Engagement Session

"He asked me to help him clean his tractor. And he never lets anyone touch it," Cecilia said laughing after I asked how Chris had proposed.

Larissa and CJ Immell: Chillicothe, Ohio Wedding

CJ and Larissa met at his family's cabin four years ago and ended up dancing the night away. Their first slow dance that night was thier first slow dance last Saturday night as a married couple. It was the perfect way to incorporate their whirlwind beginning into their future as husband and wife. And I must say, even a week later I still find myself singing George Strait's "Carrying Your Love With Me" (maybe with a little more twang than necessary). Last...
