love challenge

Perfect title for a challenge: love, because it is such a challenge sometimes. Even after 16 years!

Happy Birthday Gregg!

Well, one of my dearest friends turned 36 this past week. This is a little photo I took of he and his son on the day Gregg married Linsey. I "tweeked" it a bit and plan to give him a copy for his birthday. Happy birthday GW...love ya!

No one could keep their eyes dry as the preacher explained to Canis, Kayla's eldest daughter, what role Jimmy would play in her life. He paused during the ceremony to tell her Jimmy would not replace her dad, but he would be another father figure in her life. Kayla was especially emotional when she, Jimmy, her older daugher, and the toddler that she and Jimmy share poured four different colours of sand into one vase to signify the blending of their family. Each beautiful and unique; each neccessary to the other. They took their vows on August 4th in a small Baptist church in Commerce.

Happy 4th!

Katy and Curtis

He came home on leave in April. She said to a friend she couldn't bare it if he left and she wouldn't know if he was hers forever, so when Curtis proposed two days later, it was a surprise to noone when she said "YES!". I shot their engagement pictures the same week, just hours before he returned to North Carolina. Katy planned a summer wedding and waited for her hero to return home to say "I Do." They exchanged vows, rings, and hearts on July 6th under the evening sun and then danced beneath stars.
