"R" {2 Weeks}

Two weeks old and adorable.

Trysh and Jarrett {Expecting}

I met Trysh and Jarrett through my very first maternity client.

They have a seriously cool answer to my question I always ask --

"so, how did you two meet?"

I LOVE a good story.

So, once upon a time,

yes I'm leading with once upon a time I know it's cliché but it's a classic.

Don't hate.

Once upon a time Trysh was a bank teller and where Jarrett banked.

She caught his eye.

He knew there was something special about her...

It took Jarrett some time to get up the nerve to ask Trysh out.

Every time he came to the bank he would try to visit her window.

Counting the people ahead of him... doing the numbers...

hoping to have the chance to speak with her again <3

One day when he was lucky enough to land on her window, he decided to make the move.

He passed Trysh a note.

Only, if you've ever worked in the banking industry

you know you're trained that robbers may pass you a note...

Trysh froze.

She wasn't too sure how to react.

Hit the silent alarm? 

or

Read the note?

He seemed like a nice enough guy... she had seen him in the bank several times before....

She read the note.

Which asked her out on their very first date.

That was almost ten years ago,

and the rest, they say, is history.

They are expecting their first little one in December and I am so looking forward to meeting this little guy.

Trysh and Jarrett, it was such a pleasure meeting you two.

I am certainly no writer

I take pictures

but I hope I have done your beautiful story justice!

I certainly prefer shooting outdoors in natural light, but sometimes you can't get all you wish for!

On this particular day we had planned to shoot indoors and out, but the cold rain did not agree.

What do you do when it's gross, dark, and cloudy outside and there's no available window light inside?

Break out the off camera flash for traditional indoor family photos

...and then run outside in the freezing rain for a couple :)

Miriam & Sena {Wedding}

Hired just days before, I didn't get to meet the happy couple until the day of their wedding!

(Talk about last minute!)

Despite the language barrier and not getting to know them as I do most my brides and grooms,

I had a wonderful time meeting this sweet, sincere couple.

Miriam and Sena, I wish you a lifetime of happiness!
