It has been two months since I had to go on bed rest for my pregnancy. This week marks the end! Woo! It was so nice to be back behind the camera for Christa and John’s engagement session. Since I really don’t know when my little one will decide he is coming (he gave us […]

Erin on the east coast, Michael on the west.  Somehow they found love and Erin found herself leaving her life here behind and flying across the country to marry the man of her dreams. They were married in a church dear to Michael and celebrated in one of the most lovely settings I have seen. Sunny […]
