Happy Birthday Alyvia!

Sweet little Alyvia and her giant brown eyes, stole my heart with her adorable faces and personality. She started our time together just waking up and soaking all her surroundings in. At first I thought she was going to be a tough cookie to break, but once I sat down on the grass she crawled over to me and placed her head on my shoulder giving me a little love. I can't even tell you what an amazing feeling that is to have a baby that has only been around you once warm up enough so quickly to show you her sweetest affections. This just goes to show what an amazingly sweet little girl she is. She kept us all laughing with all her little faces she made, and when it was cake time she was not bashful at all to dig into her giant cake. She loved it!

Happy first birthday Alyvia! I wish all your dreams come true and you stay just as sweet as can be!

She loves her cake!










Alyvia LOVED the ducks . . . she made the cutest faces ever while she tried to talk to them.

Jennifer + Michael = From Here To Eternity

I saved a year for this ring
I can't wait to see
How it looks on your hand
I'll give you everything that one woman needs
From a one woman man
I'll be strong I'll be tender a man of my word
I will be yours.
From here to eternity
I'm asking you to share your life with me
Now and forever I guarantee, I'll always stay by your side
I promise my love to you
I'm willing and able and ready to
Whatever you need
I am here for you, and I'll always be
From here to eternity

A day so glamorous; full of fine details, friends and family, the perfect location and weather, a groom so eager to marry the love of his life, and a bride lost in anticipation for the day she had waited for for nearly seven years.
The day was simply perfect! Tears of joy and happiness were shed, laughter and funny memories were shared, dancing and eating were at their finest, and a beautiful exit into a lifetime of love and happiness was the only way to go.
How can I put this, Jennifer and Michael's wedding was perfect. It was such a blast being a part of such a celebrated day. The highlight of my day was watching as the dj got the entire guest list involved in dancing. Even grandma was out shaking her rump. You can't ask for a much better wedding day than this, full of memories. Every thing was perfect!





























































Jennifer and Michael, I just want to tell you what an honor it was to be a part of your day . . . . it was AMAZING! By far one of the most memorable weddings I have been a part of. Considering it took you guys so long to finally take the plunge in marriage, I don't think you will need my best wishes of a lifetime of happiness, but I do wish you guys a lifetime full of making each other smile, lots of laughter, and loving each other unconditionally. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful day . . . it was unforgettable!

"Kelsey + Jack = Country Chic"

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of documenting a small country chic backyard wedding reception. The decorations were so adorable I had to share them. It's the time put into details that make each wedding special and unique to the couple, and this couple definitely did not skim on the decor. I loved the color scheme . . . turquoise and peach. The two colors together are that perfect combination for an end of the summer celebration. The wedding favors were perfect . . .adorable little match books with the couple's initials, and beer sleeves that all their guests could use throughout the evening. They had many special handmade signs placed throughout the area that finalized the perfect touch.

Thank you so much Kelsey and Jack for allowing us to be a part of your special celebration. We enjoyed meeting you guys and spending time getting to know all of your friends and family. We wish you guys a lifetime of happiness!
