| Abby F | Senior Class of 2017 | Central A & M High School |

I’m so excited to share Abby’s senior portraits with you!!! She is an absolute sweetheart and has been so fun to work with. One of her first experiences with SJP was literally being a part of our parachute dress with Kayle. Pretty much EVERY shot with Kayle in her pink Terani Couture dress had Abby UNDER the dress holding her up or fluffing it out. She was a HUGE help and 100% on board to jumping in to be hands on! (You can see more of her model images and the parachute shoot HERE).

I was so excited to get to Abby’s time in the spotlight and she was a blast to photograph. We wanted something personal to her so not only did we highlight a bit of who she was (great athlete & FFA gal) in the studio but we also highlighted a bit of her family story by photographing part of her session at her grandparent’s house with their Forlines Farms semi!!! (Plus a bunny!! Seriously fun session guys!).

| Morrison Family | Decatur IL Family Portraits |

This beautiful family came to me to create some VERY important images which would be their last with their beautiful dog Scout. Having two aging dogs of my own who are very much a part of my family I’m always extremely honored when clients call upon me at these sad times. Scout is now forever with the Morrison family on their walls (and in their hearts of course).

Plus, we had to get some images of just the kids while we had them out and all cleaned up nice! This whole family was wonderful to work with and I’m so glad I got the chance to meet Scout and work with them.

| Carly | Senior Class of 2017 | Decatur IL |

Check out Carly’s senior portraits! I was so excited when Carly and her dad came in to design her session and she started talking about what she had in mind for her portraits and wanting to feature a few things that were important to her like her church. Well what better way to feature that than to have part of the session at the church! GT church is lovely outside so it was a beautiful location for her session. And since she wanted a little water too we headed over to Rock Springs to finish out her session.

This lovely lady is currently in Army National Guard basic training so we want to wish her luck, hope it’s going well and thank her for her choice to serve our country!

| Jill + Danny | Southside Country Club Wedding | Decatur IL |

When I saw Ann (Jill’s mom) walking up to me at last year’s Bridal Show I was so excited!! I learned she was there with Jill to plan her wedding and was thrilled when they decided to have me be a part of another of their family weddings (I photographed Jill’s sister, Maggi’s wedding not long after moving to the Decatur area and went on to photograph the Stewart family growth until they relocated to Arkansas).

Even better, once we got into planning I came to find out that Jill’s step mom was my Mary Kay director, MaryAnn! It’s hard to believe we’ve already been in this area for 6 years but having repeat clients and ‘small world’ moments like this make me so happy we are really becoming a part of this community and I love it!

It was great to get to know Jill and her now husband, Danny and see many familiar faces on their wedding day. They planed a GORGEOUS sunset wedding at Southside Country Club.

Check out both their engagement and wedding album pages below!
