Life has been out-of-control since I took these pictures about a month ago. Kaleb and the Klops I apologize for taking so long to put them up. Taking pictures of Kaleb was awesome because of all that it means. Kaleb is the oldest child of our new pastor at our church, where I am on staff. We have been praying for a long time that the Lord would bring a man to shepherd the people of Grace and He has answered our prayers and much more! Kaleb is an awesome guy and I have had the priveledge of spending quite a bit of time with him and the family. Kaleb can play anything, and I really mean anything, he wants to on the guitar, he is a consummate outdoors man, he is a force on the basketball court and he is just straight up amazing. He is loved by everyone and he is so cool it’s not fair. I thank the Lord that He brought Kaleb and his family to our neck-o-the-woods! Thanks for letting me take your pictures man!

here in the michiana area we had a bit of indian summer back for a weekend. it has been a welcomed reprieve from the colder-than-usual, rain filled autumn so far. we were able to find just a bit of color left on the trees of a beautiful park in mishawaka for some family pictures. dewent’s, thanks for letting me take your pictures! your kids are great and so full of life. it was easy to take your pictures!

we braved the cool evening and strong winds of friday night to catch some last minute color with the doctor family! here are a few of my favorites from our time together. thanks doctors!

paula is one of the country’s young and upcoming tennis players. her rankings soared this year and you can read about it in the Prince top 100. thanks for letting me take your pictures paula! will you get me tickets to wimbledon so i can take your pictures then?

clark is a straight up and down cool. he is lead guitarist for a metal band death brings fortune or DBF. since i have been clark’s youth pastor for the past couple years i have spent quite a bit of time with him and his family. clark knows how to have a good time. he is one of those guys that is easy to like. we got to chill downtown yesterday for a couple hours. pretty sweet. happy senior year clark!

sarah and her family have a beautiful cottage in michigan which was the setting for her senior pictures. we chose one of the most beautiful days of the autumn season to catch this moment in her life. sarah is a very confident person with much ahead of her. not only does she hold her own on the soccer field, but she is a leader on the co-ed high school team. she has been on medical missions trips and has a real love for Jesus Christ. thanks for letting me take your pictures sarah!

this time of year it feels like you can’t get enough out of a day. in the words of my dad “our lives are as swift as a sunset and brief as an autumn day”. that’s the way if felt with the cira family…we couldn’t get these pictures fast enough! as the sunlight faded we had a good time finding just the right spots on a beautiful autumn evening. thanks cira’s! here are a few of my favorites from our hour together.

The other night we tried to take family pictures at a park nearby, but it was closed for “deer managing activities”, the humane way of saying “deer slaughtering”, so a couple nights ago we tried again only to pull up to a half closed gate that said the park was closing in ten minutes. We decided to get as many pictures as possible until they kicked us out of the park. The park ranger was super cool and let us stay late! So, thanks to the man in the green outfit we got these pictures. It was awesome to hang out Grasmans!

Yesterday was another picturesque autumn day. The sun was bright with just the right amount of clouds. The park was brimming with color from the many hardwood trees.

As you all know, I am a youth pastor at Grace Church in Granger, Indiana. Ashley is one of the leaders of our youth ministry.

Last night was a beautiful fall evening. I drove my civic over to meet an awesome family and good friends of ours for family pictures in a beautiful park. I arrived a little early to scope the place out for the prime spots. As i pulled up to the entrance of the park i saw the gates were closed and locked. a sign on the gate said it would be closed October 11 for “deer managing” activities. i was bummed. we did find a couple of cool spots for some pictures. here are a few of my favorites. the grasmans agreed to another try at pictures in the park so you’ll be seeing more of them. thanks grasman’s! happy fall.

i will cherish the moment i had in this picture with my son K2. it was late summer and we were having a picnic. mom and ollie were on a blanket in the shade and K2 and i were finishing lunch. he loves “pop” so he smiled as he drank this cold can of coke on a hot summer afternoon. he put mommy’s shades on too. i love this little man. i look forward to many summer afternoon picnics with my family. thank you Lord.

James 5:7
Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient, establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.”
