…now they are engaged!!

I got to shoot with Katelyn and Andrew a couple weeks ago, and since then the couple got engaged! I am very happy for these two and hopefully will have the chance to take their engagement and possibly wedding pictures  🙂  It would be an awesome day to celebrate with this girl for sure! Congratulations to the two of you and I wish you all the best! Enjoy this joyful time in your relationship together.

Just for fall :)

Yesterday I had the pleasure to get some shots of Katelyn and her boyfriend Andrew.  I have known Katelyn for years from attending the same church throughout high school and it’s pretty cool seeing her with someone who makes her so happy.  Her favorite season is fall and simply loves everything about it so naturally she wanted some cute, fun pictures of the two of them.  When I got the message from her of the idea I was so excited.  It will be fun finishing these up!

I need your help!

I have made so much progress in getting my photography business and name out there; through senior pictures, family portraits, and weddings I have been blessed with awesome opportunities!  Since I started this blog the views, comments, and likes I have gotten have been nothing but encouraging, and I thank everyone who takes the time to look at my work. Knowing people are pleased with what I am doing is the best feeling and the feedback you give me I take to heart.  What I need your help with is spreading the word of Dakota Renee Photography even more!  Share the link, tell your friends, ask me for business cards, or anything you think would be helping!  There is so much more I want to do, and so many goals I have for me and photography.  To get there, word-of-mouth is going to be vital!  I would absolutely love and appreciate any help that would be extended my way.  Everyone has been awesome so far so lets keep up the good work!  You guys have helped me so much!

Senior Session with Ali Sprang :)

Worked with Ali Sprang today! She is a senior at Triway, who attends the Career Center for early childhood education.  Her smile is contagious and a serious face was hard to come by today… totally not a bad thing to have a good smile 🙂  It was a joy to work with her and every shot turned out amazing.  Here are a few from her first outfit then some random ones I fixed up really quick!

Two Shoots … One Day ! Senior Session

I got to work with Phil and Patience last weekend and with such a beautiful home as theirs… why not take them at home!?  Thank goodness it warmed up for this day so the sun light made for some great takes!  Phil attends the career center for construction while Patience is at Wooster High School, and yes…they are twins!  Very awesome seniors to work with 🙂  Here are two pictures that I selected at random to edit real quick and then one of the two together, a family request !

Blast from the past..

These pictures here of my two adorable nieces are over two years old! This is right around the time I started really getting interested in photography! Its amazing to see the skill development that has taken place over the couples years since then!  But I couldn’t resist posting these pictures because these two girls mean absolutely everything to me and are way to cute to hide ! 🙂 I love the one where Brooklynns eyes are closed…too cute! These were even taken on my tiny little digital camera, not a DSLR!
