Last summer I had the opportunity to take pictures of the Potter family shortly after they adopted their third child, Morgan. This year I had the chance to meet up with them again to take some new pictures. The kids were one year older, one year cuter and one year more spunky. This family is one of the most adventurous, outgoing and fun familys out there. They laughed, played with toys and got in some tickles all while I was taking their pictures. They had a great time, which

The Zinck Family is a military family in Dayton to complete AFIT. Like many families in Dayton, they don't really know what the future holds for them since they are a part of the military. However, they do know they have two beautiful and fun kids who are the light of their lives.

I had the privilege of photographing them in January 2014 when they moved into their first house and this time I was honored to photograph them as new parents. I remember last fall talking to Tim and Jenna at a festival with our friends Tim a

Kelsie and Chris are two of the more genuine, funny, outgoing, loving and caring people I have met. Kelsie went to high school with my husband Jon, and Jon has been close to Kelsie and her family ever since. I was honored to be a part of their wedding, not only as a guest but as the photographer. So this wedding was not just another on the calendar, but was close to my heart. Kelsie and Chris met while Chris was coaching Kelsie's brother's lacrosse team. Chris was also leadin
