This summer I was honored with being published on the cover of Reflections magazine. Relfections is a publication of Hope's Promise, an adoption agency in the area. You can learn more about Hope's Promise at http://www.hopespromise.com/ . The older of the two girls on the cover, Ryleigh, was adopted using Hope's Promise as a baby. She is pictured with her little sister Tessa.

My Children In The Snow

Today I convinced my kids to give me four minutes for a couple pictures in the snow (well, I convinced two of my kids). We had a good time before the cold set in. I love this first one because of the look of concentration on Liana's face as she jumps!

Kai needed to give his sister a big hug. I love the look on his face!

Our second new addition is that we offer leather bound albums now.  I think these are so beautiful!

This particular book is an engagement guest book album.  This would be the guest book at the wedding and guests could write meaningful and personal statements to the couple.

Last week I got to photograph the Stumbo family at the Air Force Academy land.  I had never been out there and loved all the open land and the mountain views!  The father in the family, Jim, works there, so it gave the spot extra meaning!






La Foret Wedding of Kris and Mike

[info]hollypacione

This absolutely beautiful wedding took place at La Foret Conference and Retreat Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  Kris and Mike are a lovely couple who are kind and gracious and so much fun!




Kris' dress was much like herself: elegant and beauitful, yet easy to move around in, which fits her athletic personality.





Kris' daughter Skyler and her cousins were flower girls.



Mike couldn't resist peeking out from his waiting room to say ehllo to family and friends.



I love the look on Kris' face when she looks at Mike as she ocmes down the aisle!
