Kleenex, Anyone?

I stopped crying at weddings a while back… I think. I could be wrong, though, because if crying was an Olympic sport, let’s just say I would bring great honor to my country!  All I know is that when sweet Ally stepped out of that limo in her beautiful dress with her beautiful self, there was no stopping it. I had to cry all over myself. And I wasn’t the only one! Her Dad, who’s kept it all “together” during wedding planning, rehearsals, and everything, finally broke down in the middle of the ceremony … which only made it harder for everyone else to keep composure! This wedding, like many, is bittersweet. Everything about Ally & Greg is lovely and perfect, except that they moved to Georgia the next day and will be moving to MN after that. Where is the justice? 🙂  They are truly an incredible couple, though, with hearts to live their lives for something bigger than themselves and a desire to do that as a team. Pretty rare for a couple of 20-year-olds! We raise our glasses to them, though…  glasses of sparkling apple cider, of course  🙂

[ally + greg, i love you!

I had to squeeze in a picture with my surrogate sisters 🙂

God help me, I love photography. This photo from Crooked Willow Event Center, which is super beautiful and everyone should get married there, made me well up…
One of my favorite things is a repeat photo shoot. By that I don’t mean a shoot that I have to do-over due to weather or anything…
“Oh the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see… Believe me… Sailing takes me away to where I always heard it could… Just a dream…
I should start this blog by saying that I am a professional third wheel. And I have to say… at this point I’m kinda proud of it….
I can’t say it enough: I love the things you capture while in the midst of trying to capture other things. And if we focus too much…
I love all my brides and grooms. Really, I do! I can’t think of any that I wouldn’t want to actually hang out with. But, every now…
