Mike & Megan // Portraits


Sometimes I show up to a shoot exhausted. The week has been crazy--full of ups and downs. Then I get to be with this couple and everything melts. Stress is of the past and my heart is once again full. I think this means I'm in the right profession. I think this also means I have the best clients. They come with their hearts so full for each other that I can't help but get some of that overflow. 

I love love.

Mike, Megan, thanks for believing in me. 
You guys are one good lookin' couple. 



They brought their cute pup, Mayday [best name for a dog, right?]

Emma & Peter // Engagement



For months I've known that I would be shooting Emma and Peter's proposal. What I didn't know is that watching someone get engaged is just as exciting as watching two people get married. I'm a fan. Like a real big one. 

Hiding in a pile of Christmas tree trimmings, I watched as Peter got down on one knee and Emma jump into his arms with pure joy saying yes! I cried. I laughed. I refrained from squealing when she accepted. It was perfect and lovely. You walk away feeling so lucky that you got to witness something so beautiful and life changing. 

Below is a few frames of the proposal and the rest is the surprise engagement shoot Peter planned for his Emma. [You want ridiculously happy engagement photos? Do them right after you propose. Seriously.]
