Cutest. Little. Girl. Ever.
So, I don't normally photograph children... but is my nephew not the cutest? Those curls!! Ahh!
I had such a fun time with Elisabeth & Steve! We went back and forth about whether or not to press on with our scheduled time together because of the sporadic rainstorms and in the end we braved ahead and faced the storms! We had good weather for about 25 minutes and then we took cover for the rest of the session but I'm glad to say they rocked it and we got some beautiful pictures of them together!
Thanks for venturing out in the rain and tornado watches!! I can't wait for your wedding!
In March I got to shoot a wedding for an awesome couple, Ryan & Melinda. I had also been able to do their engagement pictures so it was fun to be able to work with them again and be there on their special day. It was a cold and rainy day but amazingly it stopped raining just in time for us to take the outdoor photos and they turned out great!
So sweet.
I love this one.
I love catching the priceless moments...
We can all agree these are fantastic shoes.
I'm back! OK I know there are no excuses for the giant gap in my blogging. Well actually there are four excuses and they're all running or crawling around the house.... But still.
In April I had the privilege of shooting Dave & Mandy's wedding. What a sweet couple! The day was cold, windy, and rainy but it was still such a wonderful wedding.

Thank you Dave & Mandy for letting me share your big day with you! I wish you all the best!
The beautiful bride. How cute is she?
STUNNING.
Their first look was so sweet.
I love the fierceness from the girls!
Its full blown wedding season which means my updates are far and few between because I'm busy having a BLAST shooting weddings of beautiful brides!
Top that off with a bit of homeschooling, a bunch of kids and endless piles of laundry and what do you get? A lonely blog.
So, lonely blog, meet the strangers that have been keeping me away from you... enjoy!

I am so excited to introduce to all of my upcoming brides as well as future brides the hottest thing in the wedding industry right now... on site photo booths at your wedding reception! Not only am I able to introduce this concept to all of my brides but I'm now fully equipped to offer it to you as well!
I had the privilege of setting up this photo booth at Andy & Leslie's wedding this past month and it was a WILD success. There was a line for the booth almost all night and the pictures we captured are priceless. Its a fabulous way of documenting who was at the reception in a way thats both creative and reflective of everyone's personalities!
Enjoy these pictures from Andy & Leslie's CRAZY BOOTH! and email me at michellehamstraphotography at gmail dot com if you're interested in booking a wedding or adding the crazy booth to a wedding you've already booked!
I have a very special deal for the first two brides who book this so don't wait!
There's nothing better than a chubby baby to light up your day!! This is a blast from the past but I couldn't help but post it - this little guy is so cute!
And talk about expressive! This guy pulled every face in the book. :)
And what a champion - handling the snow like a little eskimo. ;)
Thanks for coming to see me Landon!
I'm off to my best friend's wedding so I hope to have some fabulous images of that to bring home... though I'm not the photographer - this time I get to be in the wedding... as a VERY pregnant bridesmaid. More soon!
Remember that blast from the past session? Well, this was their new addition this year. He is ADORABLE. I live nearby to this family so I get to see him growing to be as handsome as his brothers. :)
