A Downtown Engagement: Britney & Tim

There is something so beautiful about two people really in love. You know what I'm talking about...the sweet glances, the soft touches and the knowing smiles. All those simple things that make you feel like your on top of the world. It is one of my favorite things to witness because it is so precious and rare.

This past weekend we had the pleasure of spending time with Britney & Tim. They have been apart for three months...so you can imagine how special this session was. It wasn't hard to come upon all of those sweet little moments. We had such a blast and we can't wait to shoot their wedding in just a few short weeks!

Engaged: Danielle & Jason

She denied his first Facebook friend request, not realizing it was the same Jason she had grown fond of at her church softball games since she never did get his last name, the same Jason a family friend was trying to set her up with, the same Jason she had chatted up to screen for one of her friends.

But he persisted and requested her "friendship" again with a message reading, "You're too good to be my friend on Facebook, but you can talk to me at softball?" Oh yeah, this was the same Jason. The one that always knew how to make her laugh... and soon after they had their first date of Italian food and a concert. She was smitten.

Two years later, and not long before Jason had to leave for the other side of the country for school, Danielle entered Jason's house only to find herself following clues, photos and notes that read sweet sentiments like "I'm the luckiest man in the world"... and more, bringing her to tears before she found him near an empty chair surrounded by flowers, guitar in hand. The proposal was perfect, much like their love, and followed by a dinner of Italian.

I predict a lifetime filled with many pasta nights, and excited for their wedding in exactly two months!

We were in the middle of a barn, no heat and it was COLD... they were troopers and definitely knew how to heat up a space.

One of the things that impressed me about Jason was his quick wit and ability to make Danielle laugh... to make us all laugh, hard.

Danielle, you're gorgeous.

We had a great time with these two!

Wedding: Becky & Jeremy

We had a great time with these two, who we had the pleasure of shooting before, at their beautiful wedding. Which ended up being moved indoors because of rain, and the entire time, they didn't skip a beat. They were happy to be in love, and happy to be getting married... and Becky + Jeremy, we were happy to be there too!

Enjoy the happy wedded bliss!

Meet the Swartz Family

We had a fantastic shoot this past Saturday with the gorgeous Swartz Family. I had been working on building the set of this shoot for a week and I was so excited to see it all come together in our studio. On top of that I couldn't wait to take pictures of Derek and his adorable little red head. He was a pro in front of the camera, all eyes were on him and he knew just what to do. The shoot was filled with lots of toothy grins and sweet little laughs; we loved every minute. Erika, Kurt and Derek we had an absolute blast spending the morning with you!

Mini Shoots: The Pettit's

There is something so beautiful and special about a mother's connection with her little boy, these two knew just how to encourage each other. They knew how to make each other laugh, smile and really shine. They brought out the best in each other and it made our job not only easy but really fun. Karen and Drew, we seriously had such an amazing time with you, it was everything we love about our family portrait sessions.

Senior Feature: Desiree

Last week we had an awesome Senior Portrait session with the gorgeous and talented, Desiree. Our first shoot was canceled because of the rain but for this particular evening the weather was perfect. Being that we are entering into the glorious season of fall, darkness comes a little faster so we were in a race to catch as much light as possible while hitting all of our desired locations. Desiree was a champ, she mastered the art of the quick wardrobe change and she rocked out every pose thrown her way. We had a blast and we got some beautiful shots of this amazing girl. Desi we are so proud of you and can't wait to see what awesome things God has in store for your future!
