KIMBERLEY & SHANE - ENGAGED

Total naturals = Kimberley & Shane. I had it pretty easy on this shoot, but they made it SO hard to narrow down the best ofs - even which ones to pick to show on the blog was hard! So I picked a few that were some of my personal favs and that show how cute & fun they are. I was so thrilled that they wanted to get in the river - what troopers. =) I'm so excited to share their special day with them. They are my 8/8/08 wedding - the big date for 2008 like this years' 7/7/07 that everyone was talking about. Pretty cool!

Shane knows what the ladies want in their photos =)



This image speaks to me in so many ways - I just love it









A new favorite of mine



Aren't they adorable!!!!



They seriously had so much fun -

My cutie @ 3 months

I can't believe it's been 3 months since our son was born. What a life changing experience is has been. I am so lucky to have such beautiful, amazing children and a wonderful husband. Here are some quick shots I got this morning for an update.











He is just loving this toy =)

LISA & DAVID - SEPT. 2

I usually am a bit nervous to shoot a wedding w/out meeting the couple and getting to know them through the planning and engagement session and this was still the case...but not for long. Lisa & Dave live in Ohio and I did not meet them until 2 days before their big day for a short meeting to firm up details - which was another great time at Starbucks. =) Lisa is almost always smiling, seriously, it is so cute. Dave's brother was a groomsman and the two of them have inherited a laugh that will stick in your head FOR DAYS! Sometimes I had to just stop and crack up because they were laughing ALL the time and it was making me just bust up! It was an amazing, small & intimate wedding and I had a really, really great time with them and their families & friends. We couldn't have gotten a more gorgeous day either with such yummy light. I was loving it!

5 Cheers for 5 Years!

It's hard to believe that 5 years ago today I was walking down the aisle about to marry my best friend & soul mate. Now we are so blessed to have 2 beautiful children who I am so lucky to be able to stay at home with. I look forward to taking this crazy journey of life together with him and laughing the whole way along.

BLOG neglection

Seriously, it has been INSANE! I have been trying to balance life with a new baby & a 2 year old, working from home and being the busiest time of the year has made it all so much more difficult. I have about 5 amazing weddings to share and a few fun engagement sessions so I promise I will get back to posting more often again. =)
