I am an extremely creative person who is constantly 'making and creating' things. My absolute obsession, besides working out and trying to keep myself in shape, is capturing memories through photography. I love photojournalistic style of photography, meaning that I love to get candid shots to tell a story. The story can be, "Hey I'm 1 year old and am the boss" or "I'm a very curious 5 year old that loves the mud." No matter you or your family's story, I would love to capture it! I am a very versatile photographer as I will do seniors, kids, families, and engagement. I am working on encorporating weddings to my list. I am willing to try your ideas and have tons of my own.

I have always been interested in helping others capture family memories that they can cherish and display in their home. I encourage all my clients to prints their pictures, frame them and display them proudly. Before I began working at ACH, I was a framer at Hobby Lobby. If you ever have any questions about framing or displaying your photos, please let me know!

When booking with me, I may ask you some questions that will help me get to know your child and/or yourself. These questions help me be prepared for your session so I can provide with the photos you are looking for and a smooth session. Please answer them promptly as to allow me to research and gather things that may be needed for your session.

Weddings - prices vary and I'd love to discuss them with you. Depends on the amount of time you need me, which you can customize with your budget, and whether you would like a second photographer. I often work with another photographer and many times recommend using both of us to maximize your experience and photos!

Having a party and don't want to be behind the camera the entire day only to realize you aren't in any of the pictures?
This is near and dear to my heart, because as a mother and a photographer, I am always behind the camera and never in the photos. Not to mention you have to watch the whole party through the viewfinder.
Let me come get pictures for your event. I can be behind the scenes and get candids or be involved and do some posing...or a little of both. Call for prices depending on location and hours. Birthday parties, baby or bridal showers, reunions.


I offer a price list with each CD for professional printing to order through me. There is a big difference in professional printing vs. 1 hour glossy prints, but it's totally up to you! I have samples of each to show you and compare.

Wondering what the "and such" is of my title? You'll see lots of my craftiness on here from wreaths to jewelry. So enjoy!
I'm also fitness advocate...trying to help others lose weight, along with myself. After being introduced to Beachbody, I've become completed addicted to staying in shape and helping others do the same. Let me know if you are interested in getting in shape, getting healthy and getting happy!! Facebook me, email me or go to my page

12 Weeks Baby!!

Yesterday made 12 weeks of the 21 day fix...my soulmate workout/nutrition plan. After doing measurements and weighing, I've also officially hit a plateau.
Am I sad? NO WAY...it means that I kept from gaining, it means that my body is ready for a change...so I'm switching workout programs. I will still be doing the nutrition of the 21 day fix, but maybe adding a containter or too depending on how much more I work I do with Combat.  Combat was the program I ordered along with the 21DF because I expected the 21DF workouts to not challenge...BOY was I wrong. 21 Day Fix is my #1 suggestion for people starting a workout routine, even if you've been in shape in the past...me, I was a college athlete that let myself go, and the workouts WORKED ME.
 So I'm changing up my tank tops and taking my now BEFORE Combat pics to see what changes lie ahead for me. 
My official changes for 12 weeks of the 21 Day Fix is 20lbs and 20.5inches total. 
 
That's 3 months, guys...so think about where you want to be 3 month from now...tailgating, playing in the fall leaves with your kiddos, getting a new dress for a wedding coming up??? 
You can do it!!!  I can help ya, FB me or text me!!
 
Below is Day 1 vs Day 84, or 12 weeks:
 

Below is the beginning of Combat

Trooper is 6 months old!

I was so super excited when Laken asked me to take Trooper's 6 month pictures...he is so precious!  This little guy was so curious, he didn't have time to flash his usual smiles so I had to grab them the best I could...he was on a roll, or should I say crawl. 
Not much more I can say about these except...LOVE!!!
 





 
Couldn't resist this expression...the minute Laken put him down, this face started.  So sweet, but sad.

A little nervous here.

Ok, Ok...so I posted my before and after "belly" shots on a private group and got tons of responses about how motivating it is, so here it is...I'm totally freaking out posting it for my close friends and family but if it makes any of you guys want to get up and work to lose weight and be healthy, then it's worth it.  I still have a long ways to go to get where I want, but 63 days ago I made a choice to change now.  I have always known there is no quick fix even though I've tried them many times, but I can't say this enough...this program has changed the way I look at food, for the BETTER!
21 Day Fix and Shakeology!! 
 
 
When you can outlast your 5 year old at the zoo in July, you feel very accomplished!!  Hahaha!  FB message me, call me, text me or check out my coach page at www.teambeachbody.com/audram333 I can help ya!!

Round 3 - bigger smile!!

It's been 9 weeks...63 days and I've lost 17.4 lbs.  This has incuded eating out and a vacation to Branson!!  I couldn't be happier with the results so far, considering this program has changed the way I look at food all together. 
After I got back from Branson I had no gained any weight, by making good decisions during the days and then splurging for dinners.  Seemed to work well!!  When I go home I did the 3 Day Refresh which is a gentle cleanse, and gentle was an understatement.  I couldn't even tell I was doing anything different...stayed full and wasn't "in the bathroom" hardly at all and was still able to eat fruits and veggies.  I was a little skeptical until I got on the scales and lost 3.4lbs in 3 days.  I would say that it worked!!  I also had enough energy to do all my workouts plus clean out my bedroom, Mason's bedroom and both of our closets...hahaha!  I couldn't recommend that program more...if you are looking to detox after vacation or you need a jump start to starting your weight loss, the 3 Day Refresh rocks!
So here are the end of round 3 pictures!!!
Like my results and want the same?! FB message me and we can get started, I've got challenge groups going on right now and it's not too late to join!


I think after my next round I will be brave enough to post some belly shots...so much more you can see that's gone, but still kind of scary to put out there!!  I want to sooo bad though!!  I'll think about it!
