Cody & Jessica
Meet Jessica and Cody! They are a beautiful couple and so much in love!
These are a few of the images from their recent engagement session. Even in the 90-plus temperature I love how you can see the mutual admiration they share for each other in these pictures.
We started the day out looking for unusual backgrounds like fences and railroad tracks. We spotted a beautiful wrought iron gate and decided it would be perfect. However when we asked permission the owner was not thrilled with a photo shoot taking place in her driveway. So we traveled on.
Our next stop was Cody’s grandparents. This couple lives in a beautiful condo that is surrounded by a wrought iron fence that also has a gazebo and a lake in the back!!! What luck! After shooting some art and visiting we headed uptown and found some great areas including a large puddle of water that made a great reflection of the couple.
We completed the engagement portraits in what will soon be the couple’s first home. The house has a 1940-50s flavor and comes complete with original hardwood floors and a picture perfect view of a beautiful old red barn.
Check back soon for Jessica and Cody’s wedding portraits! I am so very excited to be selected as their wedding photographer … .

How beautiful is this mother-to-be?! I was honored to photograph her this week. Her baby is due to arrive in a matter of weeks. She most certainly has a glow about her.
I think maternity portraits are simply the most perfect way to capture this special time for expectant parents. Although at times it may seem like the weeks will never end, it won't be long before it is only a distant memory.
Special thanks to this terrific couple for choosing me as their photographer! The future mother looks AMAZING for being so close to welcoming her baby!

About Me
- Marie Mitchell
- I’m really just a person who likes to take pictures, I always have. I’m also old enough to remember the excitement of finally seeing the prints from a roll of film when they finally arrived back from the developer. We have came a long way since then … and I am in love with digital! These days, more times than not, you’ll see me with my camera around my neck. Am I a professional? I try to be … but my goal is more about the art than the snapshot. I take a little more time with each photo … my goal is to turn each photo into canvas quality art. My favorite artist are Norman Rockwell and Ansel Adams. I’m also a single mom who has recently returned to school. I thank you in advance for your comments…both constructive and complimentary.
