Weddings are always so exciting - but multiply that by one thousand when those who are saying "I do" are friends!  I can't wait until Joanna and Zach get married next year!

In honor of nurse appreciation day, I had Ashley over to my studio for a quick shoot. You guys, this girl is straight up GORGEOUS!! Ashley is not only stunning on the outside, but this girl has so much strength and she has the kindest heart! Not only does she love and care for her two precious kiddos, but she also spends her days giving so much as a nurse. <3

Maya Angelou speaks of nursing with more eloquence and truth than I ever could: "As a nurse, we have the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart and body of our patients, their families and ourselves. They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel."

Thank you for being so wonderful Ashley!
 

{Amy's} Modeling Shoot

Amy is vibrant, stunning, sweet and I love shooting her!  She is always so fun to shoot and the kids just love her, so that's always a plus!!  We had a wonderful Sunday afternoon shooting a few pictures for her modeling adventure in Chicago.  She is just such a natural beauty and so natural on camera.

Family Pictures!

I love love love these 3 sooooo much!  Aren't these kiddos just the cutest!?!?  Clearly, with a mom this stunning they are bound to have good genes in the looks department!  Beyond how beautiful they are, they are just the most loving, fun, kind family!  So, it was truly a family affair shooting their pictures at Kent Park in Tiffin, Iowa -- as Beth's kids and my kids ran around together and had lots of fun.  In fact there was a lot more playing than picture taking going on that evening!

{Miss H} Boudoir!!

My heart is so happy when I get to shoot boudoir!!  What I love about boudoir is how beautiful and empowered women feel when they get to take this time for themselves.  It is so much fun, I encourage ALL women to step outside their comfort zone and give it a try!!  You can see more info and images on my site dedicated to boudoir: www.tiffanybellsexystudiosboudoir.weebly.com 

Okay -- so onto Miss H -- Wow!  I am so glad to call this strong, kind, amazing, clearly GORGEOUS woman my friend!!  She stepped outside her comfort zone to do a boudoir shoot as a wedding gift for her groom.  We created a beautiful album to showcase all of her images, but she was kind enough to let me post this gorgeous, more modest, shot of her in red.  You are RED HOT lady!!!  

I also had the pleasure of working with the wonderful and very talented Shelby Rose for this shoot and had to toss in a couple behind the scenes pictures!

We shot this boudoir shoot at my home in Coralville, Iowa.  It is so wonderful to be able to transform my home for your shoot.  We have all the lighting, mirrors, backdrops, hair and makeup space AND yummy food all right in one comfortable place!
