Rebecca + Brandon {Backyard Wedding}

When I was asked by another photographer to be a part of her good friend's backyard wedding, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. The bigger weddings definitely have their perks but the intimate ones always tend to be a blast!  

Rebecca and Brandon's smaller wedding had perfect little details. From their handmade altar to the rustic details, everything matched seamlessly. 

The ceremony was just one event in a long night of friends and family spending quality time together with no fuss involved. The laid back atmosphere led to more of a party than a formal reception. 

Thanks Brandon and Becca for inviting me to be a part of such a special day! 

A Birthday Soirée

Dane was referred to me a good friend of his, Mark, who upon introducing me, gave me the hardest time possible. Lol, thanks Mark.

Nevertheless, it got Dane and I laughing and our first phone conversation was completely relaxed and mostly centered around talking about our little girls. I could tell this party was going to be fun. :) 

The food (catered by Squash Blossom Catering) was spot on. Every bit looked as fantastic as it tasted. 

Dane asked me to make sure I got a picture of Amy's surprise! Isn't she radiant?!

Happy Birthday, Amy! And remember, 40 is totally the new 20 ;)

Connor is 3! {Birthday}

You may remember Connor and Meredith from their recent Discovery Green session (if not, click HERE) 

I was so excited when Jessica invited me (and my family!) to Connor's birthday party. Play dates for my kiddo and food? How could I possibly say no? 

This piñata would not break. It was seriously the most hilarious thing watching the adults struggle to bust it open. I totally would have done it myself but I couldn't miss this shot...

Happy Birthday, Connor!!
