Rachel and Dave: Couples' Session

If ever a couple could change the world with their love - it's them.
And quite honestly, it's not a matter of can...they will.
Rachel and Dave, I adore you two.  Thank you for the ways you have inspired our family.  For the ways you've loved us.  Supported us.  And picked us up when we fell.  (Sometimes literally...)  Thank you for the way you give your lives for others.  You two are incredible and we are so grateful for you.

Could they be any more adorable?!?







LOVE.  Times infinity.












Rachel.  YOU.ARE.GORGEOUS.

In case you needed another reminder...




















If you'd like to see more from Rachel and Dave's couples' session, visit their SLIDE-SHOW.  And the music?  The incredible Andrea Bustin wrote that song and had her parents sing it.  Let's just say I'm in love.  If you'd like to stay up to date on Andrea's concert schedule or order her album, be sure to check out her website...

Clare Colwin Designs

Confession Time:
I want to buy everything from her store.
Every.thing.
Twice even.
As I went through the beautiful pieces I had the privilege of photographing, I kept thinking, "Oh my goodness...I want to keep this."
Her designs are honest.  Beautiful.  Inspired. 
And I could not have been more thrilled to photograph them.  Complete with BEAUTIFUL models...  Let's just say the entire experience was oh.so.much.fun.

Which leads me to the fact that I'm thrilled to do two things:
1.  Direct you to her site so you can go crazy with me and we can be stylish friends together.
2.  Give one of these GORGEOUS pieces away to one of you!!!

So, first...here's where you can find more of Clare's designs:

Kathy and Dave: Maternity session


Dear Sweet Baby,

Your parents adore you.  Already.
Times infinity, in fact.
When I asked about you – there were giggles and uncontrollable smiles.  The entire time…
You are walking into such a beautiful family.  You are blessed beyond measure, little baby, to have these two as parents.  They are ready to give all that they have to you.  To loving you.  To kissing your soon-to-appear little toes.  To showing you how to live.  And to making sure that you love the Bears. 
They cannot wait to meet you.  And I can’t wait to see how much they love you once they’ve held you in their arms. 
Love them.  Treasure them.  And don’t forget for a moment how blessed you are, little one.

Kathy and Dave - I could not be more excited for you two...

And...I am in love with these baby shoes...




 Cuteness. Overload.
