Monty and Melissa's October 24th Wedding

Monty and Melissa were married in Sioux Falls October 24, 2008.
Some of Monty's groomsmen were former classmates of mine. So that was kind of fun seeing them again!

Family Sessions

For some reason my blog only wanted 5 pictures tonight. It would give me errors for the others. So I guess I will talk about these for now and try again tonight to upload the others!

Below is a picture of Scott, Lana, and their boys. I think this is the 3rd time I have taken their pictures? We had fun! We took them in their back yard. Natural setting is always so much better for kids!



Jenny is expecting very soon and she wanted some maturnity and family pictures.


This is one of my favorites!! That smile is amazing!




Gavin taught at Axtell Park last year. Rena and Gavin had Noah and Emma way too early and went through a lot of tough times getting these two precious angels healthy! Yet here we are taking their 9 month pictures!




I dont know why, but this is one of my favorite pictures from Noah and Emma's photo session! They were so interested in the other twin's hat and they were just naturally drawn to one another! Who wouldnt want to get these two cuties for a Christmas gift!

Wedding and Senior Updates

Jasmine is from Minnesota. We took her pictures at Falls Park. Love the fall leaves! Check out all of her pictures in my senior gallery on my website.

Nicole and Conrad had an amazing fall wedding! Be sure to check their pictures out in my wedding gallery on my website.

Sydney Marie

Paul's cousin, Chad and his wife, Crystal, brought their new little baby Sydney Marie out for her 3 week pictures. What a doll! She is beautiful! Check out her pictures in the family gallery on my website.

October 21st Updates

Thank you for checking out my blog! I have been soooo busy lately with my kids, photography, teaching, etc. But I have had so much fun meeting new people so I am not complaining! As I have said before, I am very blessed to have had my business grow like it has in the last year! Very exciting! I have been averaging about 3-4 family sessions a week. Much more then I anticipated during the school year!!

The reason I am telling you this is because I want my potential clients to know that I am completely booked from now until November 11th. If you book your session for late November, early December, I guarentee that you will still have your pictures back before Christmas!

If you are unable to wait that long or if you are wanting outdoor pictures before the snow flies, I would highly recommend that the people in the Sioux Falls area contact my good friend Mary Jefferis. She takes amazing outdoor family pictures and is very creative! Her blog site is http://urbanartistryphotography.blogspot.com/ If you want her email address or phone number, shoot me an email and I will give you her information.

Thank you again for reading my blog. Be sure to leave a comment so I know who is "watching" me! That helps motivate me to keep the updates coming!

Take care,
Patty Hansen
