snow day!



fridays are my "sleep in days" because I don't have class. william is still working night shift, so he goes to work at 9pm and comes home from work at 8:30am. (it's been challenging, but we have settled into the groove of it now.)

so he came home from work this morning and woke me up with, "do you want to drink hot chocolate with me and watch the snow?"

um, YES PLEASE!!

i hadn't realized how MUCH it had snowed, because i obviously was sleeping. but when i sleepily stumbled into our living room and looked outside, everything was WHITE! the snow was coming down so much that we could barely see the trees just across the parking lot. so i plopped down on the couch and william made me hot chocolate with milk and marshmellows - just the way i like it.

and it was cozy perfection. i have the most wonderful husband ever.

happy snow day everyone!

Hopefully you will catch a glimpse of how beautiful and unique each family was. I honestly couldn't have asked for better people to photograph - every family was absolutely wonderful.

I hope that the holidays will be brightened with these beautiful photos! Thank you so much to each family that came to the Portrait Party!

thomas & evie













thomas and evie's wedding was colorful and beautiful. the quaint town of forest city, where they married, stole my heart as soon as i was driving through. it was lovely! perfect for this beautiful couple. they are definitely meant for each other...and it was proven when thomas caught the garter and evie caught the bouquet at bill and michelle's wedding!

congratulations to the beams!
