Anniversary

One year ago, these two were married under a beautiful canopy of trees in a Disney-inspired wedding at Rapid Creek Cidery. I still get swoony when I look back at that day. The florals that draped over practically everything (including floral crowns for all the bridesmaids!), that masterpiece of a cake that was the statement […]

Many years ago, I met Becky at a styled shoot I did (she modeled for us) and now, years later, we got to reconnect! She’s married now and has a daughter who is just a few months older than mine. She and her husband are building a house so we started their session there which […]

Since meeting them, we’ve discovered that we work out at the same gym and our youngests are the same age, providing some fun play dates. This family has a […]

Family & Kids

Just look at this sweet girl! She grew so much in a year! (I know, I know. As children do… Look at her itty bitty little self from the year before.) Charlotte was a little hesitant about me at first, but with enough of my antics, she started smiling and it was completely worth it! […]
