Jesse & Erin, totally.

I had the lovely pleasure of already being friends with miss Erin prior to booking their wedding, which is coming up quickly. Justin and I sat down to meet with them a few weeks ago, and when we met Jesse.. we could already tell within seconds that these two were meant for each other. Silliness consumes them, and frankly, we're okay with that. Telling their story will be such an ease, as it radiates through each of them constantly - you can't miss it. I'm loving their love & we can't wait to share it with everyone this October. They're bringin' out that beautiful fall-ness, some rustic undertones and a side of sunflowers. Oh... it's gonna be awesome. ;)
















Thanks Jesse & Erin for enduring our adventure through Black Star Canyon with full force. Ya look beautiful, ya really do.

Taking a moment to show some love.

It's really peaceful this morning, put on some Juliana Theory while I was getting ready for work and sat outside on the porch for a bit and thought.. man, I have the most amazing husband. Therefore, the only logical thing to do, is blog about it. Share it with everyone! No, it's not his birthday, it's not our anniversary, it's just any other day that I am graced with his presence. I am still in awe of him since the day we met. So, Justin, I love you so much it hurts & I can't wait to someday create a family with you. Thank you so much for supporting me in every single thing that I do. I do not deserve someone as perfect as you. xo

Some southern Illinois with a side of Marissa.

We are currently in Illinois/Saint Louis visiting family and hangin' out. In the midst of family get togethers, we must squeeze in some photo time. Little Marissa came by our house for a photo shoot. A long overdue senior portrait. I've known this girl via internet for quite some time now, absolutely adorable - I'm so glad that everything worked out as well as it did. The girl didn't even have to try, she's a total natural. Which makes it completely effortless for me! Thank you so much Marissa for dodging traffic on this holiday weekend to be in front of my lens...p.s. it loves you. ;)

we love you too!
