Emily & Sam are radiant. They are those people that you feel comfortable with immediately. When I met Emily & Sam it felt like we were old friends that were just hanging out. They are warm and compassionate, loving and optimistic. Emily is going to make the most rock star wife... she LOVES to cook and even makes pumpkin pie from scratch... and when I say from scratch I mean scrapping pumpkin insides out. Crazy. Sam is one lucky guy. They like a lot of really awesome things like Jon McLaughlin, BSG and really awesome Photographers :). 

I recently saw Benjamin Button and I thought Kate Blanchett in her younger years was just stunning.. she totally reminded me of Emily... Emily is just one of those natural beauties. It was hard to find any photos where she wasn't smiling and laughing hysterically... it is so obvious how happy Sam makes her and vice versa. These two are amazing together... I'm going to put my money on some serious tears on their wedding day. Thank you guys for being so incredibly amazing. Can't wait for your wedding in September!

ahh yes, Bill- The only way I was really able to "work the grass" was thanks to my husband putting me on his shoulders to get the shot! ;) I adore him

Jackie- Yes mam' I'll be at WPPI, lets throw up some high fives!

I am always amazed at the different photos people are drawn towards. My personal favorites are #1, #11, & #13 but honestly it is just so dang hard to choose with these two! Aren't they just such cuties!?
