Hello! For the past two April 17ths, I have attended weddings. I feel slightly out-of-place today, on April 17th. Shouldn’t I be at a wedding? :) In any case, I’m here in my office working and reminiscing on the past two April 17ths. The first one, Carrie & Kyle’s wedding in 2010, and the second, Kimberly & Buddy’s wedding last year. I just wanted to take a moment and say HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! to each of them. :)
Now, onto Megan & Chris. :) It all started with a comment about shoes. His shoes. Megan liked his shoes. Would they have decided to take a chance on each other and go on a date if she hadn’t have said she liked his shoes? Well, thankfully, we don’t have to ponder what would have happened if the comment wasn’t made, because it was. And the result is a beautiful relationship in between these two. They are headed to the altar in May, and it will be a gorgeous day for all. They love their sweet dog, riding bikes, drinking cokes out of glass bottles, and especially each other. I spent the afternoon at Chris’ house taking half of these images. Megan had this amazing vintage couch she brought, and it provided and amazing prop! I wanted to take it home with me. :) After taking some photos with their dog, they rode bikes for me and then we headed to a park down the road for the last set of images. It was also the park where Chris proposed so we had to take a photo in the same spot. It’s the last photo at the end. :) However, there are a ton more on the slideshow beneath that, so be sure to watch. I especially love all of the lovey-dovey-romantic ones. Well, and the laughing ones, of course. :)
 
 I want to hang this one in my own house. :) I love Megan’s expression:
Hello cutie!
The coke glasses were the same ones they drank out of when Chris proposed on Oct. 14th of last year. She has 10-14-11 written on the bottom of them. So, no, that is actually not coke in there, but coffee just for the sake of photographs! ;)

Have a great Tuesday!

This weekend was pleasant, despite melting inside our townhouse. It’s either really hot in here, or really cold. There hasn’t been an in between for a while and it’s driving us bananas. Seriously, BANANAS! I believe the AC guys don’t want to fix the real problem, because they will be coming back today for a third time in less than a month. Just fix it already, you guys! However, I did see an ironic sign on Saturday heading toward downtown. It said “Your wife is Hot. Call us to repair the AC.” As you can imagine, I cracked up! I want to go take my photo underneath it, cause I’m cheesy like that, and well, because I really am hot. ;)
So, now I have the windows open upstairs and Lexi is in hiding. At first she loved the chirping birds, but then when one of the doors accidentally slammed shut she hid somewhere and I can’t find her. Maybe without her constant cuteness around, I will get more work finished today.
In other news, I had another fabulous engagement session on Saturday morning. I posted a few of these on Facebook, but here are a couple more preview images. :) I love this couple and I’m so excited about their wedding in June. I have come to the conclusion that I say “I’m so excited” so much, that I am constantly excited. ;)
Even though we support different teams, we are all happy to know each other! ;)
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Friday! I hope you have had a wonderful day. I am starting a new series called Impressions. It’s just my impressions/opinions/likes & dislikes, and it’s totally for fun. I’m not trying to solve world peace, or anything, but just to spice up my blog a little. Plus, who doesn’t love a little list making? ;)
The Good:
- The Hunger Games Soundtrack via Spotify. I am almost finished with the first book after a week of reading it. This is huge for me, folks, cause I’m a slow reader. I mean sllllloooooooowwwwww reader. I still can’t believe I have an English degree. Anyway, the soundtrack is magnificent! I feel extra nerdy listening to it while reading the book. Within the first 30 pages, I decided that Rick has to take me to see the movie after I finish reading it. I can’t wait now! (Also, I know I’m late to the party on that bandwagon. I resisted until I saw the movie previews and thought, “Well, that looks interesting, maybe I’ll read the book!”) :)
- $15 wheel replacement at Firestone. I couldn’t believe that’s all it was. I mean, yes, a new wheel had to be purchased, but I thought the replacement would cost nearly as much… not the case. Firestone for the win!
- Winning $25 Cold Stone Creamery gift card from Justin & Mary. Seriously, I love these two. After three years as a photographer, I just discovered them at the beginning of the year. How did I ever miss out on their awesomeness before!? I love their images, blogs, and helpfulness & I’m now a loyal blog reader forever. A few weeks ago, they held a contest on their blog for the gift card and I won! Thank you, J&M! You two are amazzzzzing! :) I can’t wait to take Rick out to Cold Stone Creamery after he takes me to see The Hunger Games. ;)
The Bad:
- Gnats. Like, a million of them. Especially on an engagement session, where I tend to talk, a lot, and therefore, they find their way into my mouth. Yeah, not cool!
- Flies. In my car. While I’m driving. The continuous buzzzzzing by my ear and around my face was super annoying today. My friend Brittney once found a snake in her car, so I guess I should be thankful.
- The fact that World Peace hasn’t been solved. I know I said I wasn’t trying to solve World Peace, but come on already, everyone. Let’s just be friends, okay?
And now, here’s a super sweet sneak peek of an engagement session I had yesterday evening. I LOVED it so much that the word ‘loved’ needed CAPS. True story. ;)
With all these engagement session I’ve had lately, I am in engagement Heaven!
Have a happy weekend! :)
