She was very concerned about the time of day because she wanted gorgeous light,
so when she said that their little girl was happiest early in the morning,
I suggested a sunrise session.
I was thrilled when she thought it would be a great idea!

The day of the session was a bit chillier than normal for that time of day and I was a little concerned as
I headed out toward the farm.
I should not have been worried about the chill.
The closer I got to the farm, the thicker the fog became.
When Ashton and I got out of our cars to greet each other you could not see eight to ten feet beyond us.
It was insane.

We made it work.

We even took a few quick shots of just the two of them. They both recently lost a combined total of 80lbs and they look amazing.

Oh, hey, remember that time she almost thought I was funny?

They are two of the most genuine people I have ever met.
So nice, so sweet, and so deeply in love.

And not only that, but they are surrounded by people that are just as sweet and loving as they are.
People who love them immensely.
They traveled from all over the country just to be there to share in the celebration of their marriage.
And what a celebration it was!

Love her laugh!!!

Showing off a photo of their pup Dickson all dressed up in his wedding tux.

Bo working his magic.

A prayer before she went to see her groom at their First Look.

I love First Looks. It gives the couple a chance to relax and enjoy each other for a moment before they walk down the aisle. It’s not for everyone, but I’m always so happy for those who choose to see each other. It’s very special and an honor to witness.

The way her grandfather is looking at her as she comes down the aisle?
It leaves me teary eyed every single time I look at it.
Every. Single. Time.

Their reception was held at George’s Majestic Lounge on Dickson St.
A million cool points?
I think so.

Gah.
SUCH a gorgeous couple!!

Groovement provided the entertainment for the evening.

The toasts were hilarious and heartfelt.
I seriously kept going back and forth between tearing up and laughing hysterically.
It was a blast.

“I’ve been praying for you since the day she was born.”

They had guests sign one of ten wine bottles.
One for each night for the next decade of anniversaries!

A surprise serenade!

Instead,
I will share this self-portrait I took with the girls this winter.
We were all in need of a shower.
I have on zero make-up.
My room is a mess.
(And actually doesn’t look like that anymore.)
And you can see my sewing kit and a really, really, really old canvas
we got from one of our very first official family photos.
(How old?
The fourteen year old was only six!! )

I don’t care about any of that.
I just care about the fun we had, the giggles, and the love.

I love how real it is.
That’s what I love so much about lifestyle sessions in the home.
It’s a very real slice out of your life.

This little slice of my life will soon be hanging up in my room. 

(If you have a mom in your life who would just adore a laid back casual
session with her little loves,
then you need to contact me about
Mommy Loves Me session
for Mother’s Day!)
