i love this baby boy. i love his parents and his grandparents toothey are such a special family to me and it’s such a joy that i am able to capture some of their biggest life moments.
holden is absolutely the sweetest little boy….and completely adorable!! he had the best cheeks and head of hair! oh, how i love him!!! xoxo

holden was named after the main character in the book ‘catcher in the rye’. stephanie’s (holden’s mom) uncle recently past away and the ‘catcher in the rye’ was his favorite book.
i love it so very much!!! so we, of course, had to get a picture of holden in the signature red hat from the book

and say hello to the cutest, most loving big brother in the world. brody, you are the best!!! xo

bo and kelsey
july 19th, 2014

they don’t get much sweeter and more in love than bo and kelsey. i met these two a couple years ago when i photographed bo’s sister’s wedding. since then i have grown to love them…and their beautiful little girl, rylee. their wedding day was simply beautiful. although the smoke (forest fires) was bad and we got sprinkled on a bit….the day was perfect.

bo and kelsey, we wish the 3 of you a lifetime of love, happiness, laughter, health and friendship. thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your day. i love you guys!!!!!! xo

love this. as kelsey was walking to see bo for the first time, her girls were watching and her mom was peeking through the window

that little one on the right…..that’s rylee. bo and kelsey’s adorable daughter.

we were lucky enough to have this sweet little girl (bo and kelsey’s niece) be the flower girl 2 weddings in a row. love her.

thumbs up back atcha, mike

you can really see the smoke here, but oh so beautiful!

HIIIIII rylee!!! you’re cute!!!

trey and brittany
july 12, 2014

i have known these two love birds for a while now and it was a day we were all looking forward to for a long time. i just adore these two so much. they are amazingly kind, wonderful, giving, sincere (i could go on and on…) people. they know how to love with their whole hearts and that is just exactly what they do.

brittany and trey, thank you for letting jeremie and myself be a part of your amazing day!! you guys are what love and marriage are all about. we wish you a lifetime of love, happiness, friendship, health, laughter and lots of babiesxoxo

brittany and trey decided to have a first meeting instead of first look. they wanted to talk to each other, but trey wasn’t allowed to see brittany just yet

this group was SO much fun!!!

such a great group of guys…..and so handsome to boot!

HELLO ladies and your fabulous legs!!

LOVE this!!!

brittany and trey….seriously. look how gorgeous you two are!!

oh how brittany loves her dad. one of the sweetest moments of the day was the father/daughter dance.

brittany and trey surprised brittany’s parents by playing their wedding song for them to dance to. their 35th wedding anniversary is just around the corner. WooHoo!!

this last photo makes my heart smile. these girls are my past (plus one current and one future) brides that were at brittany’s wedding.
i love them all so much and it was so great to see them all!! (and baby bumps make my heart smile too!!)
kelsey’s (top right) wedding is this weekend. can’t wait!

we love you brittany and trey!!!! xoxo
