Wedding/Engagement :: 05.04.12
chris + kassen = married
I knew this couple was special when I met them to shoot their engagement session, but there was no way to be prepared for their truly breathtaking wedding day. Family and friends surrounded them with such love, joy and beauty that it quite literally took my breath away on several occasions. There was no detail left unattended and Kassen walked through the whole day with remarkable grace, just seeming to truly enjoy the experience of everything.
My greatest challenge was selecting images to represent the day because there was just so much to take in... so I hope and pray that this gives a glimpse of this unforgettable wedding celebration.

Kassen and Chris, I wish you all the best in your life together!

Also, huge thanks to Holly Graning for shooting alongside me - you are amazing and your gift for thinking of all the details is such a blessing!

a headband and a toothbrush.
Well, it was a big wedding weekend here so I'm recovering today, but I just had to share these shots of Charlie man with some of his favorite things. We have headband dance parties in the sink... and of course he has to be hanging on to a toothbrush as well because he doesn't go anywhere without a toothbrush these days. I just love it when he gets excited and scrunched us his face like that...

lynn + matt = engaged.
Larger than the moon, my love for you
Worlds collide as heaven pulls us through
The secret of the world is written in the stars
I'm carrying your heart in mine

happy friday.
It's been another week of glorious weather, although a little cooler, and it looks to continue into the weekend. I'm hopeful that our weekend will be full of city adventures that I need to document!

Can't help but enjoy seeing the Southern Proper images popping up in all kind of fun places like in Matchbook magazine...
