where do i begin . . . i think i am part spitz and if not then i’d like to be an honorary member of the family.
from carine and josh’s wedding in 2007, to alex and eric’s engagement session, to alex’s (pleeeeeeeeeeeease let me blog it boudoir session) and a lovely brunch, we have all crossed the boundaries of the client photographer relationship. by the time the 31st of may rolled around i felt like i was shooting my very good friends wedding.

alex and eric had their wedding at the camp where they met when they were - um 12!!!!!!!! its a great love story. and if i had the text to the amazing note eric wrote alex at camp i’d post it here. its very very good.

here is the two of them back then.

So much love…

Love the A & E!!! Looks like a fabulous location. GREAT JOB!

Alex Jun 10th, 2009 at 5:00 pm

Seriously…I can’t get over the heart one!!! I have this vague recollection of you saying that it looked like the trees were making a heart and we’d see it in the pics but the whole day was such a whirlwind that I can’t remember if I just dreamt that up or if it really happened!! Seriously, these pictures are amazing and I can’t stop looking at them. Carine and I were talking about how happy we were that she found you! You are amazing.

this past saturday i finally got to shoot christina and josh’s wedding at firestone crossroads.i cannot think of any place i’d rather spend a saturday afternoon.
i shot christina and josh’s engagement session sometime last year and feel like i have known them forever. christina bakes the best peanut butter cookies i have ever had! so good that i ate them before i could take some lovely pictures.
thanks to steph and andrew for braving the heat and having fun with me.
it was day filled with beautiful weather, thoughtful details and lots of joy.
coordination by the fabulous rebecca of duet weddings

here is what i saw:
