The Retz Family's Fall Photos

I've had the privilege of knowing Jarrett and Meagan for years now. I photographed their wedding, their engagement before that, and I've gotten to come back for family photos more than once since. So when they reached out to tell me their family had grown again with the arrival of baby Theodore, I was so excited to get back out there with them.

Bea and Landon's Engagement in Manito Park

They met at work! Back in 2020 Bea started working at the Hayden Lake Country Club where Landon was already working. Landon said she caught his eye early, but because she was always wearing a mask he "couldn't tell if she was cute or not". This was all from a distance, as they hadn't really spoken at all. On Bea's side, she noticed Landon and she did think he was cute, because every once in a while he'd come in where she was serving and get a burger and some fries - aka, no mask.

Odeh Family Photos in Manito

It is hard for me to over state how much I enjoy the Odeh family. Being able to be there for their engagement photos, wedding photos, maternity photos, and family photos as this family has grown into a family of five is absolutely amazing. There is something special about these people that makes being with them, watching them laugh, and watching their family grow that is such an incredible privilege. The thing that struck me this spring evening was just how much they remembered about my life.

Tytus and Ali's Manito Park Wedding

Tytus and Ali’s wedding was absolutely beautiful. Taking place in the Japanese Garden in Manito Park, it was colorful, beautiful, and one of the best backdrops anyone could ask for for a wedding. From their first look to their private last dance, I loved capturing it all, from the moments, the smiles, to the little details. What a great couple, and such a compliment to be chosen to shoot their wedding after meeting them at another wedding a couple of years ago.

Gerdes Family Photos at Manito Park

It’s not very often you get to have a FIVE-generation photo, but I had the chance to capture that when I did the family photos for my wife’s side of the family. So if you see myself, my boys, and my beautiful wife in some of these pictures, it’s because we were there! That also means this family has grown very dear to my heart, and I love each one of these people so much. It’s also crazy, looking at the size of the family, thinking that a whole family wasn’t able to make it (Crystal’s sister) as they live down in Florida. That said, we couldn’t have asked for a better day, with great color and no rain; it ended up turning out great. Here are some of my favorites.
