Year At A Glance - Best of 2013

2013 was an absolutely amazing year! I got the chance to work with some fabulous people, learn the stepping stones of my craft through some incredible photographers in my industry and truly learn another step and layer in the photographer I am and am striving to become. 

Once again a great deal of thanks goes out to my support team. My family, my friends and of course the wonderful support of every fan who has supported and believed in me and watched me continue to grow this year. You are all more fabulous than words can describe and I will forever be indebted to you. Thank you so much for all your love and support!!

As I write the post it truly settles within me the growth that I can see within myself over this past year, and I cannot wait to continue this growth into 2014! I cannot wait for every beautiful bride, fabulous family and adorable baby that will bless my camera this year! Without you I would never be where I am today and I cannot wait to capture your beautiful lives milestones this year.

But first I would like to begin this chapter with a look back at all of last years amazing moments.

From adorable snuggles...

 



 ... and beautiful families...

 ...to sweet little princesses...


 ... to the beautiful miracle of motherhood...


 ...the connection between grandchild and grandparents...


 ...to my beautiful brides past and present...




 ...and the grace of love that crosses my screen...







 ...to all of my sassy bridesmaids...

 ...and of course brides!...


 ...my ever humorous groomsmen...

...to first dances that look like they could be cast in grease...


 ...to the special love of bride and groom on their wedding day...


 ...and all the laughs inbetween...

 ....with a clink of our glasses (or sippycups) to the new mr & mrs...



...to a love between mother and child no one could ever extinguish...

...and kisses wether you like them or not!...



 ...to my wonderful American Eagle model clients (whose wedding I cannot wait for)...


 ...and a love so beautiful it deserves to be on the big screen (like come on, notebook 2 anyone?)...


 ...to my seriously adorable models who work for practically free (with a side benefit of treats)...


 ...to the beauty of finding happily ever after...




 ...even when it was found long ago...


 ...to the beauty of great friends...

...and great cake!...





 ...to pouts...

 ...giggles...



 ...and more love than a grandma could ever get enough of...


...to love fresh and new...


 ...a story waiting to be written...



...and to those whose story is a few wonderful pages in...



I raise my glass to each and every one of you and am so excited for what's to come, 

Bring on 2014!!!
