Katie & Jon ~ Engagements

Katie and Jon are adorable! I'm so excited about their wedding this June. Thanks for being such good models are such sweet people, and I'm so glad you're honoring God with your decision to marry.

Benjamin - Graduating 2013

In celebration of my brother Ben actually driving a car on a public road, here are his senior pictures... at least the first set. Mom says his hair is too long (who's scruffy looking?), we might just have to go out again. Thanks, Ben and Bonnie, for climbing fences, jumping ditches and running around on such a hot December day.

5th Street Girls

Three years ago in October of '09 the girls of the 4th street girl house did a fun little photoshoot to immortalize our fabulous time together and celebrate our skills with coordinating clothing. We were pretty awesome. I also remember the girls house before us getting pics taken at Jenness - all ripped jeans and Chuck Taylors . Yesterday Kaitlynn, Rachel and Danielle got dressed up and we drove out into the country for one more photoshoot to continue the tradition for the 5th street girl house.

The girls are so lovely and fun... and unique! You ladies are learning so much from each other and gaining really useful life-skills as you maintain a home together. Go ahead and fight a little, forgive a lot. Work hard and spend a little money on things that will last for years. And of course, keep having totally fun days like this one was!

Adrian & Haley ~ Engaged

Adrian and Haley have honored me by asking me to shoot their November wedding! I am so excited that they are joining our Patterson "family"and I'm really enjoying getting to know Haley better. Adrian, she's awesome - I'm so glad you found her and brought her out to our boring little town. You two are beautiful and I'm so excited for your wedding!
