I just wanted to share a quick storyboard of a few of my favorite images of my kiddos from 2008. There are millions more that I love, but I had to stop somewhere. These are all images I’ve had printed and some are hanging on my wall. I think if I were to make a collage of all my favorites from this year, then it’d take up an entire two story building. I have an insane amount of photos backed up on my external hard drives (I have five HUGE ones in case you were curious).

This year has been a very good year for our family. January 31st my littlest guy was born. He started my year off wonderfully. We’ve also been very blessed in many other ways as well. God has been so good to us. I don’t deserve the life I have, but am grateful for it. I have a beautiful, wonderful family. I have a great loving husband who puts up with my wackiness and kids who perfect in their mommy’s eyes. I also am blessed enough to be doing what I LOVE doing. I can’t imagine a better job than being a photographer. I hope and pray 2009 is as good as 2008 was.

Nathan and Melody tied the knot on November 29th, 2009 in Longview, Washington at The Living Word church. Their reception was held at the expo center here in town.  Melody and I went to school together way back in the day at Kelso High School. Go class of 2000!! She and I were in choir together (along with my hubs, Derrick).

She made the most gorgeous bride. I’m so happy for the two of them to start their life together. Can’t wait till you have some kiddos. Of course that’s just me being selfish so I can have more playmates for my own kids

It was a perfect wedding with two people who are very obviously in love. Congrats to the happy couple!!

I’ll be posting more photos in about a week or so. Please stay tuned.

Make sure you make a comment to the couple wishing them a happy life together….

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.
