Dane & Tabytha Kolar....

I do believe that this is one of those weddings that has been dreamed about and planned since Tabytha was 6 years old! The day was a dream and everything about it was perfect. When I first met Tabytha and Dane I knew they meant buisiness and I am so flattered still that they chose me to document their special day.

I also had the pleasure of working with Mokmat Productions again and let me tell you what a fabulous job they performed! Anyone looking for an outstanding videographer team--look them up--http://mokmat.com/ . Thanks ladies for making the day such an organized effort!

Dane & Tabytha--Thank you again and I'm really looking forward to working on your album soon!

Mr. & Mrs. Koch!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way--Designs by Judy in Grass Lake did her flowers and can you say WOW? Great job Judys!

This was a dream day for shooting for me! The weather was PERFECT for an October wedding---which was outdoor and my absolute FAVORITE time of year. The setting was perfect--the flowers were perfect, need I go on. But most importantly--the bride and groom were truly fabulous to work with. I had already known the bride's Mom very well and consider her a dear friend at this point but I didn't even meet Bev until August this year. The funny part is that her and I are so much alike it's almost eery! We both drink our coffee the same way, have the same mannerisms and habits and very similar personalities. Bev's Mom said to me--"I know now why I like you so much! You remind me of Bev!" The one thing that I loved about Bev is that wherever she was people were smiling because she's one of those people that makes others happy just by being in the room....I understand how Josh fell in love! Needless to say--these are just a few of my favorites and we're going to have to upgrade Bev's album to get all her favorites in there and I'm totally geeked about designing it! (And nervous too--it has to be PERFECT!) Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Koch and thank you so much for inviting me to be part of your day. :)

Kallie "2010"

The last time I met Kallie I think we decided she was about 13 or 14 years old when I did a family shoot for her entire family! I didn't even recognize her! She's grown into a beautiful, outgoing, friendly and spontaneous young lady! I can't even believe how fast time flies--everyone keeps telling me that I'll turn around and my own children will be getting their senior photos done and that doesn't even seem possible....but look at Kallie--I'm sure her family feels like just yesterday she was a bubbling, mischievious toddler asking questions all day long! Thanks for remembering me Rudd family! It's ALWAYS my pleasure!

Julie "2010"

What a beautiful, confident, smart young woman Julie is! She also has the nicest Mom who actually was real sick on Julie's "outdoor" day. I certainly hope she is feeling better..... I did have a blast with Julie--she is so full of life and had lots of great ideas on her own! She was so polite about her ideas though, always asking permission! She is a very well rounded lady who is going to go far with her dreams no matter what they are! Good luck Julie--you are fabulous!

Joelle "2010"

I had the most relaxing and easygoing session with Joelle, her Mom and sister! They were so willing to try anything and we had fun taking Joelle's senior pictures. We even had a couple of strange encounters on Below Rd! (You can ask Joelle or Natalie!) Joelle reminds me so much of when I was a teenager--softball was my life and I see that same passion in Joelle for sports. She is kind hearted and very beautiful from the inside out--what a pleasure of a girl to spend time with. Thanks for the great time and for entertaining Kinzie and--Kaelynn (sp?)--I'm looking forward to shooting your senior pictures someday and letting Joelle pick on you! :P

Darren....."2010"

One of my most favorite people called me the other day and said "Hey Holly--I got another senior for ya!" And so here are Darren's pictures....he was actually a lot of fun because he picked on me right back right away! He was a funny guy and I hope he had fun!

Here's adorable Connor and I've taken his picture a few times and every single time I'm not sure I can get cuter shots and I always do....he gets cuter by the second! He is such a joy of a child--so full of curiousity and so smart! I love his curls and I don't know how his Mom is ever going to cut his hair--I would cry! I could go on and on about this family

Cooper--almost one year old!!!!!

Busy busy baby! We were ON THE MOVE getting Cooper's pictures and he had NO time for smiling at the camera....we were able to sneak a couple in anyway but we were clearly wasting our time trying to get anything posed with this little cutie pie. I've done Cooper's pics many times and he is the sweetest thing but what a difference this time. He has grown up so much and he is a little man now! Thanks Kristin for bringing him to Grass Lake and I love working with you and Cooper!

Chris...."2010"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris had fun with his pictures and I think that shows! I've been lucky with a bunch of senior boys this year that really relaxed and had fun with this moment in their senior year! Chris has the cutest little dog and boy did that dog have a "thing" for me! It was pretty funny---and he has the CUTEST little sister that just adores him also....hope you enjoy your pictures Chris!

Here's a cool family and I'm so lucky that we got some outdoor shots because I have a feeling that Gramma will be most happy with them! She wanted some candid shots of her grandkids and we weren't too sure it was going to work out at first but here we go! I think they are GREAT! Thanks for bearing with me everyone!

Charles and Maurice.....

Alright--don't even know where to start! These 2 young men have been best friends for a long time--since they were eight? We did pics out on Charles' farm in Grass Lake and I think I did a great job capturing each of their personalities..... They also had some fun with me and I had to share a few of those too! Thanks boys for making me laugh and keep the humor alive! They remind me of what my boys will probably be like at their age someday--look out! :)

And by the way--these boys' Moms are just as cool and I want to thank them for the awesome time and Carmy for the fabulous homemade goulash! :)
