Here is the slideshow from Friday – Brian and Kara. They were such a sweet couple, we can hardly wait for their wedding! They were so fun and were up to anything we suggested and even had a few of their own!
They are getting married at Apple Hill, which was a very creative idea on their part – it will be gorgeous! The lake they are sitting at towards the end of the slideshow is where they are getting married.
Off to the next – we have a Senior Portrait today for our niece, Chelsea Lydell, and will post her pics in a day or so.

wonderful captures of emotion! So Mark, what are your thoughts on the 5D vs 20D now?
:yes:I truly love the way you capture the joy and love in the eyes and expressions of the people you work with! It seems you put them at ease and capture them naturally. I have to tell you that I am never relaxed when someone takes my picture! You have a gift and thank you for offering that gift back to HIM…The results are inspiring and amazing! HAve a wonderful day. With much love and many prayers, Paula:love:
awesome work there! michelle branch! good song! :goodjob: i was suppose to go to apple hill last weekend but couldnt make it! i like it there!
Kenny: The jury is still out – there is A LOT I like about the 5D. First, the practical – thge larger viewfinder rocks! But I am so comfortable with my 20D, is was a little like borrowing someone elses car – you know, the seat isn’t in the right spot, you had to adjust the mirrors, etc. You need to drive it a few times before you really feel comfortable with it. I like it a lot, but will have to use it a few more times.
One other small thing – There are times I just need a little fill flash and don’t want to carry around a bigger flash. I would miss the little pop-up flash. I dont use it very often, but once in a while I do.
So, the bottom line is that I’m happy with my 20D for now, but I’ll use Kerri’s a few more times and see how I feel.
Thanks for the input on the slideshow.
I really love the sunset image, the one with them sitting at the bench looking at the pond (shot with the Fisheye lens) and the last image best, heck they all looked great, they are going to L O V E :love:them all. Good job Mark and Kerri as all your work is wonderful.:goodjob:

Hi Kerri,
Thanks for your comments this morning :love:, looking at your beautiful video of Brian and Kara made me sad…because I remember a sunny, windblown day when I photographed my daughter Brianna and her boyfriend Justin at the beach and captured the same love and delight in their faces. Now they are seperated, but at the time it seemed like he was going to be the One. I know God has a plan for both of them, so I just keep praying:heartbeat:
Funny how people will react to photographs/art in so many different ways.
I’m so glad you came up and introduced yourself at the seminar, I might never have found and your site, and read of Mark’s recovery from the brain tumor…for I went through brain surgury myself eleven years ago…and God totally blessed us during the experience. It was thankfuly a benign tumor, and has not grown back. I need to write all of it down and share with others the Awesome God who loves us, and is with us always.
