I met up with a fellow photographer to do her families’ photos up in Centralia, Washington. It was a quick and fairly easy commute for me. She wanted pics of her and her family before her brother went away in the military (and they hadn’t had pics done in four years together.). I know what it’s like to not have photos when you’re always behind the camera. I have my family session this next Monday and I’m excited to finally have a pic of the five of us together. We don’t even have a single snapshot of us all together.

Anyhoo… this family was a hoot. I can’t believe how much fun they were. Normally when I do older families I get a good maybe twenty minutes with them. This time they were willing to do whatever. They were incredibly patient and well behaved. 😉

I think they were well trained.

I had a blast and I hope they did too. Here’s some favs of the session…

This last Saturday, June 21 2008, I photographed the wedding for the Dunlaps in Longview at the brand new First Baptist Church. My Sister-in-law Natalie Schneibel also photographed with me. She and I do weddings and events together. She is a very experienced and skilled photographer. We’ve been working together for the last year.

This was the very first wedding that took place in the church so it was a very special day for many reasons. I used to attend Longview First Baptist when I was in Junior High and High School. Seeing Pastor Kevin White brought back so many memories. It’s so nice to see them grow as a church family. Even though I now attend Grace Bible Fellowship in Kelso, I still miss a lot of the folks I used to go to church with there. Jennilee and Aaron have decided to make Longview First Baptist their home church.

I’ve been friends with Jennilee since we were little kids so it was natural for Jennilee to pick Lemon Drops Photography as her wedding photographer. We played softball together for years. I remember having slumber parties with the team. Two of my other good friends were bridesmaids. I felt like I was at a reunion. I think I had as much fun as they did, if not more.

The Kelso senior high school classmates now reside in longview with their two dogs. I personally am hoping they decide to expand their family soon with kids, but that’s purely for selfish reasons. I can’t wait until we get baby Dunlaps!!!

They are such a wonderful couple. I was honored to photograph their special day.

Post a comment and help the happy couple win free prints! For every ten comments they get a free 8X10 (comments must be from different people).

So congratulate the happy couple!

This little beauty made me want to have another little girl!

If her parents didn’t love her so much, I’d have taken her home with me 😉

She was full of so much personality. I think we got at least thirty different faces out of her. She made my job really easy. I could have photographed her all day. She was a complete doll!!

So here’s a quick preview for her mom and dad….
