Zack! Melba High School Senior Portraits

My little Zackie is all grown up!
..okay, so maybe he's not technically mine, nor is he officially "grown up", but I first claimed him when he was five years old old...and he was pretty darn cute back then... so you can see why I would say that, right? :)
Where have the years gone?
We love you Zack....
and think you're just about the greatest ever....
except for those days we have to fire you for being an "irresponsible teenager" (those are Zack's words).
We're so glad you rolled your trooper....and came to work here....and that we can claim you as our own!
I miss your cakes...and brownies... and crafting delicious homemade doughnuts with you...and coming home to a clean kitchen when we have been out late. I hope you're having fun at college, because it's been pretty lonely around here lately!

CHEERING Sabrina on!

Senior Prom

Wow! I had so much fun seeing some of my seniors again at prom in their formals and getting to shoot them one last time! Can you recognize them?

You are the best....

One of the reasons I am a photographer is because I love trying to capture the essence of "You". You are truly amazing and inspiring, and it is always so gratifying and fun getting to know you. Sharing the "Rafter T Photography experience is always an adventure!

Today, I received a random call from someone that had received a customer's wedding announcement in the mail. They were just calling to let me know how beautiful it was and that they had seen a lot of wedding announcements, but nothing that even came close to the quality of this one! {wish I could post it for you, but they kindly requested to keep it private} Ahhh... I always really appreciate those calls!

And then... this came in the mail!

One of my announcements with the sweetest "Thank You" note letting me know how awesome & pretty their pictures were and how much they loved taking them with me! So sweet, it really touched my heart, and again reminded me why I love what I do. Thank YOU!
