baby blake is here!!!

Blake Thomas Valentine was born today!!!! He weighed 7lbs 14oz and was 20.5in long! He has really light hair...no...it's not red and is just the CUTEST baby EVER!!!! Rebecca's water broke around 4:00am...I'm not really sure what time she got to the hospital, but I think it was between 8:00 & 9:00am. When they arrived their AMAZING nurse found out that the baby was breech (not so sure how to spell that!)...so Rebecca had a C-Section. Everything went really well and Bec did GREAT!!!!
It was an AMAZING experience to be apart of!!! I was SOOO excited to finally hold and see my new nephew!!! And of coarse I took TONS of pictures! Here are a few...slide show to come!!!!

tim & kristi

I LOVED taking pictures of Tim & Kristi!!! They smiled and laughed the entire session...I don't think I've ever shot such a happy couple!! Loved it! With Tim's shocking blue eyes and Kristi's BEAUTIFUL smile...I don't think they could take a bad picture! I'm really looking forward to their wedding in July! Thanks Tim & Kristi for such a fun session!!!

Any day now there will be a new member of the Valentine family...I can HARDLY WAIT!!! Eric & Rebecca will be bring me a new little nephew!!! And just for warning...you'll be seeing lots of pictures of this new little one!!!

whitney & scott

A few months back I did some studio pictures for Scott & Whitney so that they would have a picture for the paper. I had a great time with them then which made me look forward to shooting their actual engagement pictures. We had a BEAUTIFUL day for it!! Scott & Whitney are a very FUN couple...I laughed a lot while taking the pictures...they are not afraid to be goofy at all!!! I always love when the couples I shoot really show their true colors! Scott & Whitney also enjoy biking together...so they wanted me to do a few shots of them in their gear with their bikes! I LOVE ideas like that! I also have the opportunity of shooting their wedding in two weeks...I CAN'T wait!!

heather & eric

Yesterday I shot Heather & Eric's engagment pictures in Ft. Wayne. Not only were they a great couple to shoot...but it was also fun to have a change in location!! They were really relaxed and trusting...which I LOVE!!! I was really excited about a lot of their pictures...I think they turned out great!!! I look forward to their wedding in the fall!! Thanks Heather & Eric!!!
