My initial meeting of these two was at their engagement session, which was held out in the rolling hills of Nebraska. From the beginning I knew these guys were madly in love, playful and just an absolute joy to be around. Their wedding was nothing short of a good time, full of love and laughter. Here is a huge shout out to the new Mr. & Mrs. Tom Blount!
Read MoreI met Steve two years ago not too long after moving to the Philadelphia area. We found each other on match.com and all of our early dates were Steve showing me all around and walking around Philly with me- showing me his favorite things. I knew he was very sweet right from the start. I've never liked city driving so I would always take the train in and he'd be waiting at the station to pick me up and at night when it was late he always insisted on driving me all the way back home (a little jaunt from where he lived since we lived on opposite sides of Philly at the time). I always felt that Steve and I were so comfortable with each other from almost the very beginning, I never worried with him or wondered where our relationship was headed, he was so forthright and honest always...
Read MoreGrowing up in small town Nebraska, Morgan wasn't overly excited to accept an accounting internship fourteen hours away in the "big city" of Dayton, Ohio. Being from a small town and leaving all of her friends and family behind was a bit overwhelming. Dayton just sounded like the worst place to spend her summer, in 2011. But the accounting internship was a good career experience and was worth it, especially because it was only three months long.
A couple days into the internship, Morgan had met John.
After returning back to Nebraska to complete her senior year of college, that fall, she accepted a full time offer back in Ohio.
When Morgan moved back to Ohio, for good this time, her and John's friendship picked up right where it left off. They spent countless hours together. And apparently, everyone around them saw it coming. They knew they were perfect for each other.
Before you knew it, John was on one knee asking Morgan to be his wife.
The rest is history my friends. :)

Read MoreMeeting up with these two California natives was nothing short of a good time. We ventured around where Amanda grew up, in the Venice Canals area. Then we hit the beach to play in the sand and watch the sunset.
PLAYFUL x FUN
Read MoreWaking up at 4:55am just to make it in time for the sunrise was completely worth it. The chemistry between these two is steaming hot. I adored photographing their sunrise session. The fog over the ocean was thick and hovered over the cold water as the hot sun began to rise over the foothills. It was the perfect compliment to their love.

Read MoreThese two have a unique story. Shortly after booking with me last year, they decided to elope! When we went on their engagement shoot, they were already married. By the time their original "big day" came around they'd already been married for a whole year! None-the-less this day was perfect. I believe they were even closer and it was even more special because they'd known each other as husband and wife already. Ana's family flew in from California and it was a giant celebration of their commitment to one another!
