Allie and Weston....

This was my favorite shoot yet! I love the urban shots. Allie and Weston were dressed so cute, so that just added to the urban look. They are my great niece and nephew. We had such a great time, Allie did fantastic! Weston did too, thanks to Kenzee buying him a bag of skittles :) If you would like to book a urban/pettiskirt shoot, give me a call! Thanks guys, love you!

Drostes.....

It is that time a year again, I can finally start shooting pictures outside! Yeah!!
This was my first family session for the year. The Droste's were all getting together to celebrate and thought it was the perfect time for a family portrait. We also squeezed in a 1st communion session for Ellie. What a beautiful little girl. Thanks for choosing Julie Martin Photography to shoot your family session.

What to Wear Guides....

I am often asked "What should we wear?" So I am going to post a few "What to Wear Guides" to give you an idea of outfits that will look awesome in your photos. Keep an eye on the blog, I will be adding more soon!

Ean...

I was so happy to take pictures of this little sweetheart today. I wanted just to sit and hold him, the heck with the pictures! He is just so cute! He is only a few days old and his mom was so nice to bring him over so soon after getting out of the hospital just yesterday. Thanks for letting me cuddle with your little angel today.

Megan....

I can't believe it has been a year since I took Megan's pictures! Megan just turned 3!! She is such a little sweetheart. The kids were all mad that they had to go to school when Megan was coming over. But I was a mean mom and made them go. lol It was great hanging out with Megan and Missy!

Brooklyn...

Brooklyn is one!! Tracy picked out the cutest outfit for Brooklyn. Loved the cute spring dress and adorable little pettiskirt! Brooklyn did great, I know mom didn't think so. But she did! She just had places to go and things to see. :) Thanks for choosing Julie Martin Photography for your one year photo session!

Jackson and Ray...

The Droste boys are just too cute! Ray wasn't quite as easy to photograph as Jackson, he just was interested in putting his hands in his mouth most of the time. :) But that is ok, he is adorable and can get away with that. As you can see Jackson has a love for baseball. He is just beautiful. Becky and Ted are going to have a hard time keeping the little girls away from that little cutie!

The Ward Kids....

Do they get any cuter? Michaela, Hunter and Bryce did so great. Although Michaela lasted a little longer than the boys. :) We got some great shots!
Thanks for coming to me for you photos! I just love photographing sweet kids like these.

The Bengel Family....

On Sunday I had the pleasure of taking pictures for the Bengel Family. We wanted to squeeze this session in so that we can have a family picture for the benefit. (see the post below) And they were so great about going outside in the 20 degree weather!
Although Trent did complain about it to Jackson in school the next day. lol I told Jackson to tell him "it's all about getting the shot". But Jackson just rolled his eyes at me. They are such a great family. I hope you can all make it to the benefit to show your support!

Trent...

Many of you may know that our community has been working on a fundraising benefit for a 5th grader in our area named Trent Bengel, son of Randy and Terri (Boos) Bengel, who has been diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor. This little guy and his family are in need of our support and our prayers. To help support his family financially through Trent’s many months of intense chemotherapy, our community is sponsoring a breakfast benefit on February 21st from 8 am to 1 pm at the St. Mary’s Hall in Westphalia. Please mark your calendars, and bring your family out to enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast. There will be a HUGE silent auction with many wonderful items to bid on, and several different raffles with a chance to win a picnic table, a wooden swing and a handmade quilt. In addition, the Catholic Order of Foresters will match the funds taken in for this event!

The committee will soon be sending out a list of all of the great items available for the silent auction. Please make plans to attend, and bid on some of your favorite auction items!

Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you there!
