Pro Deo Creations Making the world look better through affordable photography, videography, graphic design and event planning. Pro Deo means "for God" in Latin.

When I began Pro Deo Creations my focus was on providing affordable photography to families that otherwise may not be able to have family photos taken. I wanted my work to be a service to God and not about what I could earn. Since then I have branched into graphic and event design - and more recently video work. About me:
I earned my degree in journalism and mass communication (with a strong passi

on for design) from Abilene Christian University. I joined the Army as a public affairs specialist creating a variety of products for my commanders. After leaving the Army I became a copy editor for a newspaper in Kentucky, making my way up to a Monday Community Edition designer/editor. I then worked at Fort Sill as a writer/photographer/publication designer/videographer for their post newspaper (then Cannoneer - now The Tribune), before moving to media relations and then finally as the communications director for Long Range Precision Fires (the Army's number one modernization priority). I have photographed and videoed portraits and weddings from West Point to Oklahoma to South Korea, created award winning articles, publications and photographs (my favorite once hung in the Smithsonian American Art Museum).

When in Korea - you wear hanboks and go take photos!

*Pro tip: Many of the palaces and Korean folk villages have free entry if you are wearing a hanbok.

This photo session was COLD and the wind was blowing fiercely. We were ready to pack it up and go but I wanted to get one last set of shots.

As she battled keeping control of her hair, I kept snapping away - and got this photo. It's one of my favorite from the entire session.

Went from work to a friend's baby shower - with my camera in tow. So of course, I took some photos!

Made a handful of New Years products for small businesses as the year came to a close. I used a template for a lot of the moving graphics, but I think I want to take a class to learn how to create them myself.

There was a pillow fight!!!

Took some Christmas-pajama photos of a family this week and a battle erupted (possibly encouraged). Luckily no broken bones or egos! Just lots of laughs!

A little TBT!

I'd just gone to the Annie Leibovitz exhibit and wanted to try my hand at lifestyle photography (where you live life and the photographer snaps away). It's become one of my more favorite types of photos to take -and- to have taken of my own family.

After going to the Annie Leibovitz exhibit in Seoul I was inspired to try more lifestyle photography. Luckily for me, that day I was also going to hang out with these two kids! They were fantastic and let me photograph them as they enjoyed the day!

I was hoping to have the wedding teaser video up this week but I wasn't able to get it done. :-( But I was able to finish editing a few snapshots! Soyoung was a beautiful bride - regal and elegant as a princess (with a gorgeous tiara to match!). Congratulations to a lovely lady!

~Video to come! I promise!~

When my Nikon Z6 arrived, I wanted to get some practice with it. Sweet Amelia let me follow her around the magical pink grass and snap away. The result was just enchanting!

Downloading images to give to a client. Walked away and came back 5 minutes later and looked at the progress. 😱

Might as well make myself a sandwich, it’s gonna be a minute (or 2 hours).

PANIC! My USB to USB-C adapter is dead and I can't access the photos and video on my external harddrive.

(breathe!)

Gonna hit up the PX later today and see if they have one. I don't always miss being back home, but right now it sure would be nice to be able to run up to Walmart and get what I needed.

I was asked to take photos of the beautiful Mortara family as my first official shoot back from my photography intermission. We got to the park just as the sun was beginning to move over the trees, turning the golden-pink muhly grass into a richer purple-pink color. Amazing!

Took some photos recently with these two kids! Tell me they aren't adorable!

I came across this image while wrapping up edits from two recent photo engagements. I love that you can see me in the reflection of her eyes.

After a big hiatus, I think it’s time to seriously get behind the camera.

Spent this morning scouting a location for potential photos. This is a nearby place that also has a bit of the pink muhly grass - I couldn’t help but take a selfie!
