Greg & Steph-October 13th

Eric and I headed to James St. Mennonite Church on Saturday for our friend Greg's wedding. Steph is from sweet home Alabama so it was fun to have her family in for the big day. It was a gorgeous day for outdoor pictures which we were able to get a lot of. One of my favorite things about the day was what Greg and Steph did for their unity act. Instead of candles or pouring sand, they actually planted a big green plant. Greg brought dirt from his home (PA) and Steph brought dirt from Alabama and they mixed the two soils together symbolizing their two lives coming together as one. I had never seen that done before so I appreciated their creativity. The day was a lot of fun for us because a lot of the guests were friends of ours. Greg and Steph, may you enjoy every moment of newly-wedded-ness (yes, that is a word!) We are excited to walk the journey of marriage with you here in Lancaster City.

Gochenaur Family-Oct. 15th

The 40 minute drive down to the Buck is worth it for this family. I feel like I've known the Gochenaur's for many years, even though I just met 2 months ago for the first time when I did Tanner's senior pictures. They are a very close knit family and it shows in the way they interact with each other. They love to be creative and throw acorns at their many cats who are now kept extra busy since Cooper, the new puppy just came to live with them last week. I hope someday when Eric and I have a family we love each other the way this family seems to love one another. Bob and Karen, you are a great couple and it only takes a few minutes when I'm in your presence to know that I am cared for and loved. Hey, maybe the next time we do a photo shoot, I'll be driving something other than the Malibu! Enjoy a few of my favorite pictures.

Wenger Family-October 12th

This extened family was so much fun to capture. There was lots of energy with 6 little kids running around and the crisp (and windy) fall weather. The Wenger's live out in Manheim and we went to a neighboring farm for this photo shoot. It makes my job fun when there are so many different backdrops to use for my background. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to hang out with your family for an afternoon. May your flock continue to grow in the years to come!
