Liz absolutely ADORES her little cousins!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!!

ALWAYS make the time for sunset photos!!

Those first dance feelings. They never get old!

Damien’s mom wrote AND recorded a song for him – and that was their first dance!!

AHHHH!! I’ve said it before – but SO much of photography is being in the right place at the right time!

I LOVE THAT ONE!!

Instead of a cake – Liz & Damien had an ice cream sundae bar!!

Damien & Liz – THANK YOU SO MUCH for asking me to spend your day with you!!

I LOVE a good veil shot!!

We needed a bench for Liz’s extended family photos and I just LOVED that they were having a moment while her brother a little cousin were taking the bench back!

THOSE SHADOWS!!!

They sang their first dance song the whole time – and it was BEAUTIFUL!

I’ve got ONE MORE post to show you!!

This was such a BEAUTIFUL moment!!

I’ve got SO MANY more to show you!!

Liz and Damien took some time before the ceremony to pray together.

But Damien did NOT want to see her – so he was blindfolded!

They are some of my ABSOLUTE favorites from their day!!

Seriously – SO BEAUTIFUL!!

While we gave them a few private moments – I took a few shots of their best man & matron of honor!!

A mini-mini-maternity session while at your best friend’s wedding!!

Those lemon cookies were the BEST lemon cookies I have EVER had!!

I LOVE that moment – Liz & her dad – meeting in the middle.

I LOVE that shot. A newly-wed couple saying their vows. The guest with her hand on his back. PERFECTION!!

It was one of the most beautiful and emotion-filled ceremonies I have ever witnessed!!

Brides & black & whites – a few of my favorite things!

Liz & her dad had a “first look” – and it was one of the most emotional moments I’ve ever witnessed!!

I very rarely cry at weddings anymore – but I couldn’t keep it together during this!!

THOSE COLORS!!

Liz is on her way to spend some time with Damien before their wedding!!

You do NOT want to miss tomorrow’s post!!

I’ve known Liz for about 6 years – when they first moved here from NJ! It might even be longer than that. She’s our pastor’s daughter!!

I was SO excited when they asked me to photograph their wedding!!

These colors – they’re my new favorite!!

I absolutely LOVE those shots!!

Back with the girls – because getting ready photos are some of my FAVORITE photos!!

Those are some of my favorite shots EVER!

THAT shot – PERFECTION!!

Stay tuned because I’ve got SO much to show you!!

I LOVE Sierra’s smile. Knowing that your friends love your kiddos nearly as much as you do. It’s a beautiful thing!

THIS IS US! Find your people. Love them hard.

We are not in a casual friendship with these people. We are in a committed friendship with these people!!

When it’s easy. When it’s hard. When it’s fun. When it’s mundane.

Sierra – we LOVE you SO MUCH!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Are any of you DOCTOR WHO fans!?

The crack in this AMAZING cake resembles the crack in time – which seems to follow us around! We see it quite often!

ALSO – BECCA – I want this cake for ALL the birthdays from here on out!! IT WAS SO GOOD!!

I don’t eat chocolate – so I can’t speak for this brownie – but it LOOKS DELICIOUS!!

Those pictures – they’re my favorite!!

These shots describe what we do as friends. We love.

It’s a great thing for our kiddos to have 5 moms! I’m not sure that the kids ALWAYS love that though!!

That’s her oldest. She is NOT happy that he’s taller than her already!

I’ve got ONE more post to show you!!

This MIGHT be one of my FAVORITE shots of the night!

How did they do on the re-creation!?

THIS is how we do life together!!

THAT CAKE – it was SO DELICIOUS!!

THE JOY IN THAT SHOT!! THIS is how birthdays should ALWAYS be!!

Who’s ready to eat cake!?

Our dear friend Sierra turned 30 this year!!

Her hubby set up a surprise dinner at their house!

She’s HERE!!

SURPRISE!!!

I LOVE Enoch’s face in that one!!

I forget that I’m not actually IN any of the photos – so I have to grab anything I can get!!
