Friends & Fall

Matt & I had the chance to hang out with our good friends Jay & Marcus yesterday afternoon, which happened to include a trip to Lums pond with both our dogs. The purpose of the trip was to get some good pics for a potential Christmas card (sorry Jay if you choose any of these!). We enjoyed the late Fall weather and each other's company! Our dogs also enjoyed their romp into the pond..ick.

First Birthdays are fun!

Last weekend we had the pleasure of celebrating the first birthday of our little buddy, Powell. 

He is as sweet as he looks and was a natural in front of the camera!

Family Ties

We set up the tripod on Sunday to get a few new sibling/family shots of the Troutmans! I am lucky to have married in to such a loving bunch. And of course, Dozer had to get in there some how!

Enjoy. 

ALL BOY

What do you think of when you hear about little boys? Boogers, sticks and spontaneous wrestling? BINGO! Well even if not, it's usually nothing dainty. I definitely didn't see any boogers but I got to hang out with the Hardcastle boys this last friday. Our little photo session did involve spontaneous wrestling and running with sticks! Good thing they're cute. As for their mom Jenny, pray for her regularly :)

Autumn Bonfires..does it get any better?!

I have to say we had a great weekend with friends this past weekend. The weather was gorgeous and the company was great as we threw a bonfire complete with chili, hot dogs and smores of course! There's nothing like a cool night with spiced apple cider either... thanks for the memories!

Christmas Card Time!

Just letting you know that this is a great time of year to get that Christmas card shot, so please shoot me an email if you want to book an appointment! (etroutman@ogletown.org)

Baby Announcements

Do you need help with Baby Announcements? Let me know!

Here's a recent sample of one I did for friends.

 (I did use a design created by another photographer but inserted my own image & adjusted it accordingly - just need to give credit where credit is due)

Daisy Girl

So if you know us at all, we have a soft spot for English Bulldogs. Our own English Bulldog, Dozer, led my parents to get their own bulldog. They got his "little" sister Daisy a little over a year ago and look at her now! I had an impromptu visit with her and decided to break out the camera. 

Baby Jaxon

I had the privilege today to shoot for friends their week old baby, Jaxon. He's a sweet one!

Gotta' love the new baby skin and the fact that he did not want to part with his binky for anything. Such a little miracle!

Just Some More Wedding Favorites from the archives..

Here are some more of my fav wedding photos. Thanks for allowing me to capture your day!

Jenny & Tyler - they've been married over a year!

I can't believe it was already over a year ago these two said "I Do!" Now they are off in Nashville continuing to share their music with the world. It was such a gorgeous summer afternoon on the beach in Avalon, NJ.
