Here's to 2011! =)
PS - We'd love to know who all checks in our blog! Are you someone who checks in occasionally, when we're featuring pictures of someone you know? Are you a self-admitted blog stalker? Do you swing by when we announce a new post on facebook? Also, what picture is your favorite? We'd love to know what styles you guys dig the most! Leave a comment and let us know or just say hey! =) We like that too!
PSS (or is it PPS? I can never remember) - Are you considering a session later this year? Let us know asap! We're already booking throughout the year and want you to have your prime choice of dates!
PPPS - Seriously, you guys rock. Holla!
Ryan and Amber are expecting a little boy in a couple weeks and they invited us out to the farm where they got married for a quick little frosty (it snowed that week and was super cold out so we didn't hang outside long) maternity session. We just love these two. They are so kind and laid back... you just feel comfortable with them. I couldn't be more excited for them. They are going to make great parents for sure. Can't wait to meet the little guy!
P.S. - Amber still looks great!
Wonderful pics! Can't wait to meet Mr. Nathan!

Can you feel the love?!
Thank you for an AMAZING 2010. Wow.
Stay tuned for our favorite kid/family shots.
Believe me when I say, that as blessed as Dac and you were to have met these couples and to have captured their special day, they were just as blessed to have met you and Dac and to have been the ones to capture their new beginnings. I am so in awe and so proud of you both.
(01.25.11)I love your wedding shots!! My favorite of these would be hard to pic, but the engagement shot of Josh looking down at Laci who is thinking, ahhhh- THIS is where I belong! brings tears. Thank you for all the ways you help our family record the moments and here is to moments yet to come!!

Sure enough! Andrea is a real go-getter and took charge of her big day. Not in a mean, bossy way at all... but rather, with assertiveness and calm. She's as nice as can be and her direction helped the day move so smoothly. When we met Ty, I thought, "what a perfect match". They just seem to "fit". He's a super nice guy too!
The ceremony was very sweet. There were lots of smiles and tears on everyone's part. Andrea's Dad sang... are you kidding me?!? How did he do that?!? It was great. The church was also beautifully decorated for Christmas. Why not take advantage of that!? Great idea.
Afterward, they had a simple, perfect reception with a homemade cookie bar (complete with adorable labels), a hot drink bar with hot chocolate, coffee, cider, and all the toppin's. (On that note, let me interject. When I hear the word "toppin's", I can't help but remember Miss Congeniality. You know the line.... no? Sandra Bullock takes pizza into the gym where all the contestants are working out. Of course, she starts digging in while the girls drooling. Miss Rhode Island sweetly says "at least scrape off the toppin's" before all the girls devour the pizza. Guess you had to be there... anyway, enough of that... back to the wedding.)
Like I was saying, the reception was the perfect winter treat! I'm so glad we got to know these two. They were wonderful to work with and so were all of their families and friends! We truly had a great time.
Andrea is a beautiful young lady and we are proud to be part of her family. You captured the emotion in a magical way, bringing to life the feelings of love and admiration we all have for one another.
(01.24.11)I am SO pleased with how the pictures turned out! Ty and I will be able to look back on our special day and remember all the wonderful events that you captured. We are very grateful for your talents! Thanks again Dac and Alisha!
(01.24.11)I'm so glad you like them!! We absolutely loved being a part of your day! =) You guys are fabulous!
(01.25.11)Annie- I am so glad that you invited Dan and I to attend your special day! You made a beautiful bride and I am very proud of everything you have accomplished in the past 3 years that I have known you!! Congrats again!!

So, we set out on a super cold and windy day to make it happen. The ranch. was. beautiful. I hadn't been there before and I'm sure it's even nicer in any other season but winter, but still. Anyway, cold temperatures aside, we had such a great time! Their family is the epitome of kind. They were so nice and welcoming and just all around good people that are fun to be around. We also enjoyed the extra chance to hang out with Tarl and Joy too.
A quick glance at some of the shots we got:
The ranch IS beautiful! We were so blessed to live there for 6 years! Everyone looks really great...love Jane's long hair!!!

One of my favorite pictures you did was of Adrienne and Jerry's engagement session where they are running towards each other. My other favorite is the butterfly shadow on my belly. Can't wait to see Aldrik's photos! Of course we will be using you for documenting our little guy grow.
