Chad + Amy = ENGAGED!

Of all the rainy days in the last 10, you two picked the most gorgeous day! I love going to locations that hold special meaning to a couple. You getting engaged here at the Falls in something you will always treasure. I hope you love the pictures. You two make an amazing couple. I'll be in touch when the rest are ready. God Bless- Kristi

Olson Family

I really enjoyed taking these pictures of my pastor (@ Faith Baptist Fellowship) and his family. His oldest daughter is heading to the Philippines for a year long ministry. Please say some prayers for her. These pictures were taken at Falls Park in Sioux Falls, it's a beautiful location for family, wedding, or senior pictures. Hope you love them. God Bless- Kristi

I had the privilege of taking these photographs at the Children's Miracle Network Telethon on June 6, 2010 of children who have been helped by the Children's' Miracle Network. What an amazing program! I want to encourage all of you to donate, so more kids like these can receive the treatment & equipment to help with their medical needs. What a blessing these children are. We thank God for all the miracles he has done and will continue to do in their lives. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity. God Bless- Kristi

Lollipops + Tutu's = Great Sticky Fun!

Here are a few pictures of my three little munchkins! We took these two weeks ago while home in Marshall, MN visiting family. Sierra and I made the tutu's earlier in the week; 10 yards for 1 tutu, is enough to drive anyone crazy cutting it all! Jordan requested the large lollipops, which we found at the candy store here in the Sioux Fall Mall. I order 16x20's of each of these to hang in our stairway and got them today. They are awesome! God Bless- Kristi

Derek + Melissa = Married

What an amazing wedding! Everything seemed to flow so nicely and the weather was awesome! Here is a sneak peek at a few pictures from the day. I am just starting to edit them, but these seemed to pop right at at me. I wish you the best in your new life together. These are also posted on Facebook on Kristi Shanks Photography, you can also send people there to look at them. I'll be in tounch. God Bless- Kristi

Baby Wyatt & Big Sister Emma

Wow! What busy parents you are! I had such a great time taking these photographs of Emma (15m) and Wyatt (2.5 weeks). I am so glad I had the opportunity to take these pictures for you. Wasn't that an awesome baby shower gift from your co-workers at the South Dakota Air National Guard? My hat is off to you both for serving in our Military. I hope you will treasure these photographs always. God Bless- Kristi
