Melanie and Quang -- Married!!

Melanie and Quang have been a true joy to work with! They are both super sweet and extra cuddly with one another. My heart was constantly melting when I was taking pictures of them together because of the way they looked at one another, overflowing with unconditional love. The wedding went great, and everybody showed up, even though the Saint's were in the first round of the playoffs! ;) We actually have a few pictures of the girls cheering the Saints on, and Melanie was listening to the game in the limo while waiting to come into the church.

Melanie told me yesterday her favorite part of the day was the ceremony which goes to show how sentimental she is. We had a lot of traditional pictures to take at the reception for Quang's family, as it is tradition in their family to toast each table, which I thought was a nice way to get to see everyone. We were also able to do a post session after the wedding with the two of them so that they would have plenty of great images of them together, and also because it was thirty degrees outside when we did Melanie's bridals!! We had such a wonderful time at the after session -- it was very relaxing! We didn't have to worry about dirtying up the dress or being rushed. They even climbed into one of the paddle boats out at the park!! Thanks for being so fun you guys!!

Meet Heidi and Jeremy

Heidi and Jeremy will be married this November. When I met with Heidi and her mom about a month ago everything just clicked; it was such a great first meeting, and I can tell they have a very open, warm family. I'm really looking forward to working with them this year. Seeing Heidi with Jeremy was also adorable. They both look so cute together, and I could tell that Jeremy is kinda protective of her too, which I think is very sweet. We had a good time walking around the quarter shooting, we got one of the better weather days recently, but by the end it was getting a bit chilly. They actually had dinner at Muriels the night Jeremy proposed, and then they walked by the river after which was where he popped the question. Heidi's parents were hiding behind the trees documenting the whole event. I love the shot we got of them framed by the trees because it helps portray the way it happened. Enjoy the pictures you guys!!

Meet Brandi and Jerome

Brandi and Jerome will be married in Lafayette Square in March, which is where we also decided to take their engagement photos. They also brought along their little cutie, Roman, to take some pictures with him too. It was a bit cool that day, so we worked quickly, but still got some great moments with them. I love some of the ones with the three of them, and then the one with Brandi and Jerome kissing on the bench is one of my favorites of late. It just has such a romantic, tender feeling to it. I'm looking forward to the wedding you guys! Enjoy the pictures!
