Hello

Client Appreciation Dinner

Photography

I don’t know how the idea came about, but I do know that it was Kevin who suggested hosting a dinner party for my past clients. I was admittedly reluctant about it because I knew it would happen right in the middle of my busy season (as would the planning beforehand), but I also loved the […]

Engaged

They first met in high school; her a freshman, him a senior. “He was in the classroom that I always went into during my study hall to finish the newspaper for school. We both were dating other people, but I thought he was very cute. Three years later, we both became single and he wrote […]

Weddings

I have long awaited this wedding, knowing it would be a gorgeous event, but mostly because from the moment I first met Melanie & Dan, I loved them. Dan’s best man described it best in his toast later that evening when he said that the first time he met Melanie, he instantly felt like he had always […]
