I met their family earlier this summer when I had the chance to take biggest brother Blake’s senior pictures.  I got to know Brenda a bit as we chatted throughout his session, and I learned that she had three more boys at home.  I could not help but think, that’s a lot of grass-stained jeans and curious energy to keep up with!  But, Brenda is just as cool as a cucumber when it comes to mothering her boys, and I would have to say she and Corey have a great family right here.  It has been great getting to know you, Stengels!

The Degners have been wonderful neighbors down the street ever since I moved to town.  Kelli shared with us the most delicious homemade runzas after we had our first child.  It’s been fun to watch their kids grow up, and I really enjoy watching their high school drama performances each year.  I even had the pleasure of taking Ted’s senior pictures this summer.  You have a great family, Larry & Kelli!

I had the pleasure of meeting Megan and her sweet family a few months ago to take her senior pictures.  It was such a joy to get the chance to be with all of them this time around.  That little brother of theirs sure gets a lot of love from his sisters and vice versa.  It melted my heart as he asked his mom to dance just right there in the grass – no need for music!  You have a wonderful family, Swartzendrubers.  I hope you always dance.SwartzendruberFam100SwartzendruberFam103SwartzendruberFam105SwartzendruberFam107SwartzendruberFam108BWSwartzendruberFam109BWSwartzendruberFam110SwartzendruberFam112BWSwartzendruberFam114SwartzendruberFam116SwartzendruberFam118SwartzendruberFam121SwartzendruberFam123SwartzendruberFam124SwartzendruberFam125SwartzendruberFam127SwartzendruberFam129SwartzendruberFam131SwartzendruberFam133

Meet the family of Jason & Jill!  This is a hardworking bunch, but they work hard to make time to spend together, too.  They finished with harvest just in time to take these pictures and celebrate a birthday.  The little girls are often seen at ball games with “Uncle TJ” shirts to cheer him on.  And, they always have a smile and wave for us when we stroll by their house.  It was great working with TJ for his senior pictures and now getting to know the entire family.  Enjoy the fall season, everyone!

The Bortner’s day of country elegance began with brunch at the local South Maple Street venue.  There was an excited buzz in the air as the ladies got ready, and the final touches were put in place for the big moment.  At the stroke of four, warm sun poked perfectly through the tall oaks as Heath & Hilary renewed their vows in front of friends and family on the front porch of her beautiful, childhood home.
Heath & Hilary, if your life continues to be even half as beautiful as this day, it’s going to be a wonderful ride.  Congratulations!
