First of all, before I get started, I just want to say that this was the most adventursome photo shoot I have ever done! Towards the end, I will explain why. Chad & Amanda have property & are farmers. They met in Columbia. When it was time for her to go back to where she was working, Chad did not want her to leave, so he proposed to her 6 years ago and asked her to either marry him before harvest or after. Amanda chose to take marry him before harvest because she was madly in love with him; which only gave them about a month to prepare for their wedding. Not sure about exact timing, but I believe 3 years later, they had a baby girl.   Then about a year later came this precious baby girl: Here are a few of my favorite Sister pictures! :)          Here are some Family pictures.         The most thrilling part of this photo shoot was climbing up a grain bin and being terrifie...

We were supposed to take pictures a week or two earlier, but plans changed and decided to take pictures on Saturday October, 27th. It was COLD! I believe it was 37 degrees by the time we were done. Sarah, Gabe & baby Olivia sure braved the cold with me. :) Little Livy was a trooper! I don't think most 6 month old babies would be as content as she was while we took her pictures and as we put her in the car seat while we took her mommy & daddy's pictures. Although she did start to cry at the end. :) Love this family & am so thankful I was able to take these pictures. I have known Gabe ever since I was 12, but apparently we were belly neighbors. Our parents lived next to each other, so I guess you could say that I have known him my whole life! Who doesn't love being upside down?!? LOVE!!!    I think she likes kisses! ;) Sarah, you are absolutely Beautiful!!! Look at how strong daddy is...
