Hi I'm Denise



Hi Everyone! Thanks for coming to look at my blog. It always seems like I am trying to play catch up here because this is always the last place I come to update. But maybe now with a little help I will be able to keep up with this.

A little about me, I have been doing photography for a very very long time. It has been my secret love for many many years but with some encouragement from my family and FRIENDS, I made it official and created Denise Rudd Photography. With their help and God's blessing it has been wonderful. I am very thankful for the talent that God has given me.

A little about my family. I have a wonderful husband Brad, that I will be married to 20 years in July. My high school sweetheart..that still means the world to me. I also have three wonderful kids. Kaylee is the one that drives me crazy, but also keeps me sane.. What more could you ask for from a graduated 18 year old daughter. Then Nathan is my baby.. Well he will always be my baby even though he will be a junior and is 16. He's the one that keeps me busy running from one sporting even to another. But I wouldn't have it any other way. And last is Jesse. He's the Big Kid God blessed us with 5 years ago. He will be 21 soon and well we couldn't be more proud of him.

Well I guess that is it. Hope you enjoy your visit and come back and visit often!
