Mehandi Party

The Rehersal Dinner for Adrienne and Raj was called a Mehandi Party. The evening was full of great Indian food, henna art, and dancing. Here are a few highlights from this night. (I love all the colors of the Indian culture. Also, I saw my first Indian musical/movie, the singing and dancing was incredible.)

Adrienne just got henna on her hands and is waiting for them to dry.

This little boy was running up to everyone and showing off his henna.

Raj and Adrienne's Engagement Session

Raj and Adrienne...what an amazing couple! They have such a neat love for each other and their ministries for the Lord. I truly found their love to just "eek" out into each photo. Here are a few of my favorites from our photoshoot.

P.S. It was ANOTHER FREEZING day photographing! I cannot believe the odds...lol! So if you see frostbite or rosey noses, you know why...lol.

This is the bridge where Raj first declared his love to Adrienne.

Baby Grayson!!!

Holly gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on SUPER BOWL SUNDAY! (The funny thing is that Andrew was born on Super Bowl Sunday, too. I guess the phrase "like father, like son" really is true! WINK!) Here are some pictures from their birth.

Andrew helping Holly not think about the pain by reading The Bible.


This is for Andew...he loves computer stuff.


Contractions are getting harder...and closer...


Baby Grayson has entered the world!

Aaron and Bethany

Aaron, Bethany, and I braved the cold weather last Sunday to take their engagment pictures. We went to Faust Park and man was it COLD! It was 25 degrees when I got out of my car to begin this session and by the time I got back to the car, it was 23 degrees...but they treated me to Starbucks and I was really happy how the shoot went so, no harm done!

Shelly-Senior Pictures

I LOVED my senior picture session with Shelly. It was a little cold, but we toughed it out and got some great shots. I shot these photos at the river front and then in and around Lafeyette Square. And I must say, there is just "something" about Shelly that is mesmorizing! I think that these pictures encapsulate her personality. I am looking forward to having a second shoot with Shelly and some of her friends in the next few weeks. Check back soon for more photos of Shelly.

So I normally don't blog two of a same style picture, but I really liked these next two and could not decide between them...so you can see both!

I picked this one because Tony liked this up-close photo.

Shelly had found this door and loved it, so we took a ton of pictures by it.

Special thanks to Tony, my amazing husband and photography partner, for editing these pictures for me! He did GREAT! (I am soooo loving the last one especially!)

The Nagy's Pregnancy Shoot

Andrew, Holly, and I all went to college together at Missouri Baptist University. The first day I met Holly I was with Andrew and I honestly told him, "You should marry her." And to my surprise, he replied back saying, "I'm working on it." Obviously he did "work on it", and he won her over. Now they are happily married and expecting their first child in Feburary. Their pregnancy shoot taken in Forest Park on a 70 degree day in January. You just don't get those that often, so we took full advantage of it. I must add, only in St. Louis would weather be that crazy. LOL.

This is such a cool picture. Look at the building in the background, wow. And the PINK sky!

We were all done with the photoshoot until we saw that the sun was setting so beautifully! So what did we do, we ran up a hill (poor pregnant Holly!) and tried to catch a few more cool pictures. This was a great way to end a photoshoot!
