Introducing Mr. & Mrs. Brian Casey!

Sonja & Brian:  I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day!  You are such beautiful people, and your families are just wonderful.  Everyone made me feel right at home, and I had so much fun.  I have to admit, after a couple miles on the one lane, gravel road, I was beginning to wonder what I had gotten myself into! LOL  Thank goodness for your brother, who came along, just as I was starting to panic! :)  Your family camp is beautiful, and the day was amazingly perfect!  Sonja, thanks for being so much fun.  You're gorgeous, and your beautiful personality shines!  Congratulations to you both!!!  I wanted to share some of my favorite shots, so far.  I love so many of them, and it was very hard for me to choose your sneak peek!  I hope you enjoy! :)

I took these with my cell phone, on the drive out to your camp.  I don't think you could've asked for a more beautiful day! :)

 This is beautiful "Campelot," the family camp, where the wedding took place.

The BEAUTIFUL couple!

Isn't she GORGEOUS!?

...More to come, hope you enjoyed your sneak peek! :)

Where does the time go?

Yesterday was my baby girl's first day of pre-school.  I wasn't sure how she would take the transition, but all the worrying was for nothing, because she LOVED it!  It's so hard to believe she's turning 4, next month!  Jeff and I are very proud of the little lady she's becoming.  :)

This is a picture from today (her second day of school).  On the way, she said, "Mommy, I wonder what we'll do in school, today?"  I said, "I'm not sure, honey."  She said, "I guess we'll just have to see what the teacher says."  :)

Meet Beth & Rylan! :)

Beth,  thanks so much for allowing me to photograph you, yesterday!  I had so much fun!  I really enjoyed talking, and hearing all the special meanings of your tattoos.  I can't believe we were out for 3 hours! LOL :)  You're a very special lady, and I really admire you for being yourself, and not being afraid to express yourself.  You're so unique and beautiful, and I couldn't have had a better person to share my first maternity session with!  :)  I hope you enjoy your pictures (here's a few of my favorites).  Oh, and I can't wait to find out if Rylan is a boy or girl! :) 

 

Congratulations, Phoenix!

I was very excited to hear that Phoenix won Overall Photogenic in her pageant last week (with one of my photos)!  Yay!  Congratulations, Ash...she's gorgeous (both of your girls are)!  Here's the photo that won the prize! :)

Good luck Roe! :)

I'd like to wish lots of luck to one of my best friends, Roe, in the Mrs. Oakleaf Pageant this Saturday!  Good luck Roe, we'll be there cheering you on! :)

Meet Heather and her little cuties! :)

Heather, thanks so much for letting me photograph you and your beautiful family! I had a blast with you guys, and got lots of great practice with my new lens! :) Your kids are absolutely gorgeous! I finally have all your pictures edited, and will be publishing them on my website tonight. Thank you for being so patient with me! :) Here's a few of my favorites from the session. I hope you like them! You can view your album at www.photosbyleslie.photoreflect.com. I'll message you with your password. Also, if you have 5 friends/family comment at the bottom of this blog post (and leave their name), you will receive a free 5x7 of your choice. :)

Such a beautiful, happy, family!

Ashley and Matt, thank you for allowing me to photograph your beautiful family on Sunday!  It was great seeing you, and watching the girls play together!  Mason is such a great big brother, too! :)  Here's a few of my favorite pictures from the session.  I hope you like them!
