Laura | 2011 Senior

Laura is a lovely little lady. We've been friends for years, and I did her sister's wedding this past July! :)

Ironically... I shot her senior pictures at the same parking garage as her sister's wedding pictures. :)

 
Mmmm... parking garages. :)

Laura has grown up to be a GORGEOUS young woman. LOVE her. :)

Her giggle is the cutest thing EVER. We had so much fun. :)

The clouds loomed overhead.

And she wasn't sure if it would rain on us....

But it did. :)

So... we left.

Love ya, Laura! :)

A lovely little one!

I like babies.

Nope. I LOVE babies. 

How can you not just melt inside with those feet?

I had the opportunity to do a short notice family session with a family from church! :) I'm so glad they called me, and I'm SO glad I got to meet their precious boy.

Cause... I love babies.

They've been in the process of adopting for two years now, but never told anyone! Bringing him to church on Sunday was quite the shock to everyone... :)

Ears fascinate me. 

Now, if it was someone else's ear... it'd be gross. But since he's only a month, it's cute. Why is that?

Daddy gets the feet... 

Mommy gets the head. 

And.... my favorite. :)

What's yours?

They love Him.

They love Jesus. 

A lot. 

The people at The Exchange worship Him like no other.

First, they sing.

And then they sing some more.

(I love the grain in this one!)

Since I've been attending all summer, the church asked me to photograph during one of the praise and worship services.

When you walk in the building, you know that everything about this church is intentional.

From the music...

To the Scripture....

The response is "awe"(-some).

(I'm such a techy person...)
No service is made a reality without the support of the tech crew. Thanks guys for making it possible!

The talented worship leader just happens to be my sister. Hmm... wonder how that happened. :) 

Last night was special; they had communion as a group. 

 Somehow, communion puts things in perspective.

During the entire service, Nick painted this canvas. And he did an amazing job. (Go check out his website at www.ignite-art.com! It's awesome!)

Hope. 

 The mark of a good artist is dirty hands. 


I love hands.

 And I love the Exchange.

And I love how they love Jesus.
