Four years ago today I was lucky enough to marry my fine gent. I thought I loved him more than I could ever love someone on June 30, 2007; but four years later I am amazed at how much my heart has grown in affection and admiration for this wonderful man. It is hard to believe we have been married for four years. In some ways I feel like it was just yesterday, but in other ways I am so aware of how much both of us have grown, up and together, during the past four seasons.
There is no other person I would rather be gallivanting the world with, scheming big dreams with and living life with. We are a team. The first year of marriage was a lot of figuring out what it really meant to be a team, and everyday we are still learning about what it looks like to die to self & serve the other before ourselves. There is no one else I would want in my corner with me. Those of us who find one to call our own who can truly be our teammate in life are the lucky ones of the world. Not everyone is so fortunate to have that in a partner, I recognize that and am so so thankful.
For our first anniversary Chris surprised me and took me down to Canon Beach in OR, I fell in love with the place. I'm not sure if it was the leftover remnants of the Goonies or just the overall feeling of stepping into a sort of Narnia, but I have loved it ever since. This year we're going back and I can't wait to walk around the beach with a hoodie on my head, a latte in hand and the most amazing man in the world at my side. :)

It's easy as a photographer to be intimidated by other REALLY talented photographers... but I never ever leave your blog feeling intimidated, or anything like it. I leave feeling INSPIRED and EXCITED to be courageous in my next undertaking. You fuel my creative pieces. Thank you.
