I love the little things that happen at a wedding.  The tiny little moments that can so easily get overlooked.  Funny thing is I am not always talking about something visual.  It can simply be a small gesture that gives you insight as to how two people are.   It can change the mood of a [...]

Earlier this season, I shared a bit about Megan and John’s story through their engagement session.  I still just feel so much appreciation for their love when I think back to that first meeting we had and John teared up when Megan told how he proposed.  The soft side is unexpected in an athletic, successful [...]
