Hey friends! I’m here at the moment:

O.K… so not exactly in an old barn. But in Nebraska.

Ya know… meetings. For those of you friends who don’t know… I also help run a little non-profit/ministry. This one.

But have no fear. I get back tomorrow. Hence so will our good ol’ regular programming around these parts. Perhaps on Thursday. I’m running on about as much sleep as a mongoose. I hear they don’t sleep much.

Catch ya on the flip.

We’re 30+ shoots backed up right now on this good ol’ blog. That’s about to change.

Everyday (biz day that is) I’ll be blogging. At least until we give some snippets of all of the weddings we’ve shot so far this summer.

Let the party begin my friends. Let it begin.

It’s gonna be a riot.

Just got an email that awesomely captured Whitney in action from a wedding two weeks ago.

Best part is that the pro behind the camera just so happened to be the three year old flower girl, London. Whitney grabbed these following shots while she was snapping away at her.

That little cutie’s not such a bad little photog.

Thanks Tina for emailing us that awesome image!

OK. Don’t even get me started about how rad these two are.

Sweet kicks. Killer shades. Spunky attitudes.

All around amazing day, with so many killer images to boot. We couldn’t ask for anything more than that.

(not to mention we got to work with the killer Mind|Castle crew. they shot their cinematography and are insanely good at what they do.)

Can’t wait to deliver the rest of this goodness to Aaron+Reanne (those kids are so stinkin’ rad!)
