Engagements > April 22, 2011

Let the wedding season begin!  It’s been a long, LONG winter and I for one am looking forward to tomorrow’s wedding just as much as the bride and groom…well, maybe not quite in the same way!  It will be an elegant affair and rain or shine, the bride will be glowing.  It’s wedding day!!!!

Dusty is part of my church family and I’ve come to love his parents, sisters, nieces and nephews like my own.  I first got to know Jenny last fall during the engagement shoot.  She and Dusty are a lot like my husband and myself in that he’s a little country and I’m a little more rock and roll.  Ok, did I really just compare us to Donny and Marie???  Oh well, you definitely get the idea!  Dusty is a true outdoorsman so we started the session at his parents house.  Where else but in the country!

Heather and Brian are soon to be first time parents as they await the arrival of their little one due in the next few weeks.  Originally from Indiana, they now make their home in Florida so we had a limited time frame to work with during their recent visit.  They flew up in February for a baby shower and we prayed the weather would cooperate.  Thankfully, the sun was shining but it was still VERY cold!  Heather handled it in stride as we photographed around the melting snow piles :)

And today is Heather’s Birthday!  Couldn’t think of a better time to post this for you..Enjoy!

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined I feel very lucky to be a tiny part of such special times in the lives of my clients.  New life is a joyous thing and to celebrate it in this fashion is a true honor.  There’s nothing quite as beautiful as a mommy to be, and Heather just proves it!  Brian and Heather, thanks for braving the Indiana weather and for a fun morning.  Looking forward to hearing the good news very soon.  Heather, I hope your day is fabulous!!!

This was the second time I had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful family!  Jenna is also a photographer, and over the past year of sharing stories and ideas, she has become a treasured friend.   Last year, Jenna and Andy moved to their new home on a beautiful piece of property in the country.  It was a perfect location to document this time in their lives with two busy boys as they await the arrival of their baby girl this summer!
