Family Pictures

I saw this white brick wall a few weeks back and I have been itching to go take pictures here for a while now! Early last week Rachel asked if I would take some family pictures of them before Brennan started dental school and before baby Jordan comes. I was happy to! And so excited to get some shots at this wall.

I have also been wanting to take pictures in this field.. This field is right outside of the neighborhood where I grew up, and the owners were very strict with trespassers. It is their farm. I understand.  It is soon to be developed.. so we had to go here too! It is seriously GORGEOUS! I was so worried all week about the weather during our pciures. I was checking the weather multiple times a day. Of course, it ended up raining and being SO windy. There were so many cute pictures ruined by crazy wind blown hair and clothes. Such a bummer. We will have to try again next summer. But we still got a few good shots! Thanks to Rach for snapping a few pictures of our little family too!

Lots of love,

Flower Girl

My friend contacted me last week and offered us a flower crown she had made at work... It was an easy yes! We scrambled to feed and dress Lyla girl and get out of the door before the sun went down. Pictures are SO much prettier with natural light! Lyla is normally very fussy at night, but she really cooperated with our theatrics trying to get her to smile and pose. Taking pictures of a baby is hard! I love how these turned out. We ADORE our little Lyla.

Lots of love,

Pictures

I love that Rach trusts me to take all of the big benchmark pictures of Ruby, over the last month or so I got to do their second baby announcement pictures and her second birthday pictures. She was so cooperative for the baby announcement, but not so cooperative for her birthday pictures. We did our best. Her sweet face and funny facial expressions kill me. I sure love this niece of mine!

These are some of my favorites-

I am SO grateful our sweet girl will have older cousin Ruby and a new little cousin just 12 weeks younger to play with! I hope these cousins are the best of friends! 

engagement pictures

I have wanted Mikki Platt to be my wedding photographer since I was 17.  I stalked her blog on a weekly basis and I have always loved her work!

I was so excited when she was available for our wedding date! Its honestly a dream come true.

Our engagement session was SO FUN!  I honestly felt like Mike and I were on a date.  I hardly noticed she was there. The pictures she captured are pure magic.  She is so fun to work with.  and people she had the edited photos back to us in less than two days. I am serious, she is incredible!

I cant choose a favorite.. so here are quite a few of our dreamy photos.

lots of love,
