a dear friend of ours, Mesach family just had a new addition to the family! Pst. Chris and her wife Lydia are our satellite church pastor for Lafayette and Bloomington. after almost 24 hours of labor she was finally born on the dawn of august 24th. we had a chance to visit them this weekend. what a blessing to see a gift from above.







"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures." James 1:17-18

Enjoy this show!

amy + patrick engaged

i had the pleasure of shooting this wonderful couple. we started around their house and found a grafitti wall and old storage place. then we went on to their secret spot, and i saw a playground near it, so of course i had to take some them there!
we finally finished by capturing intimate moments in their house, which has cool stairs, and finally i get to shoot in elevators too! ^_^ i really had fun today as amy + patrick are just passionate with each other and fully trusted me to be creative with my camera ^_^ enjoy!
