Walker Portraits

A tiny sneak peek for the R family. I am uploading your gallery right now, so images will be available SOON! This one made me smile though, so I had to share!

Sneaking in under the wire with this one.  I said I’d try to have it out on Friday…just have a few minutes left!  It’s wonderful to spend time with a family having fun just being together.   This family was so much fun, and the leaves made for some great backdrops!

Love this one…a boy and his dad 

 More very soon guys, thank you for your patience!

OK, here’s a sneak peek for the awesome crew from Amy and Brian’s wedding! We had SO much fun with you, it was really a perfect day! Beautiful fall colors, terrific families, a wild and crazy (in a good way!) wedding party, and a fun-loving couple that were so happy together that you couldn’t help but smile!

Amy and Brian were married on October 20, 2007 at Zion Lutheran Church in Davenport, Iowa.

Here is Amy getting ready to meet Brian before the ceremony….

Love this dress!

Her flowers were jaw-dropping!

Amy….

We kicked all the kids off of a local playground, and got a fun group shot of the wedding party…

At the reception, there were some starving artists who carved pumpkins to add to the decor….

Congratulations, Amy and Brian! And thank you so much for letting us share your day! More to come!

This great family came to visit central Illinois to enjoy the fall colors for a mini-vacation.  Unfortunately, the fall colors weren’t ready to make a glorious appearance yet, but we still had a great time!  They stayed in the neatest Bed and Breakfast - The Barn in Dahinda, Illinois.  It’s filled with wonderful antiques, and makes the perfect spot to spend a weekend…be sure to check it out!   It’s wonderful!

So here are a few of the S family…enjoy!

I had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful family this weekend. They found me through a wonderful organization called Celebrating Adoption, an organization of photographers dedicated to promoting and celebrating adoption. These two happy kids were a joy to photograph, even though it was a HOT day in October…in the 90’s!

Isn’t she beautiful?

And is my new friend, who likes goldfish crackers, tee-ball and cheese pizza from Chuck E. Cheese.

If you have adopted a child domestically or internationally within the past year, be sure to visit the Celebrating Adoption website. It’s a wonderful organization, and I am pleased to be a part of this wonderful service!

Thanks to the M family! Your gallery is coming very soon!
