The Johnston Family

We love our neighbors! When Matt and I first moved into our apartment Lily was a brand new baby. Over the years we have seen Lily start to walk and talk and then last year we were so excited to meet Adam & Abby. (Please click HERE to see their precious newborn faces.) Gabe & Jess are great neighbors. I can knock on the door at any time of day to ask baby questions or to barrow sugar (it's cliche but I've done it more than once). I could go on and on, we just really love them! It was so fun to run around after them for a couple hours at the park.

yeah, they've made some babies ;)

Bree & Brad: ENGAGED!!

As I type I am watching my little girl sit in her little recliner-bouncy-vibrating seat-thingy. Her limbs NEVER stop moving! She's like a hamster in a wheel. Her little legs brush past each other so quickly I'm afraid she will spark a living room fire with the sheer friction caused by her tiny feet. I admit it is difficult to run a business with a new baby. I feel like finding a balance will be a constant battle for me. But if I step outside of myself for a second I remember that there are lots of moms & dads that have to say goodbye to their precious babies everyday for at least 8 hours or even worse they serve our country and have to say goodbye for months! So, all things considered I have an incredbly sweet deal. So, what it's tricky. At least I get to watch my baby grow (even if it does mean less beauty rest:)

Enough about us, Bree & Brad are romantic and sweet in all the right ways. When we have the privilege of capturing "the look" through our cameras we go away from our shoot on a cloud of happiness. Brad and Bree give each other "the look" all the time. Their look says a million things to me through my lens. It says, I will always take care of you, I will fight for you and defend you and I will always be here with a hug to comfort you. Bree & Brad, life will throw a lot at you and sometimes it will be easier to pout in your own corner and lean out. Take some advice from two people still figuring out how to love each other. When life gets hard walk away from your corner, cuddle on a couch together and lean in.

We can't wait for your wedding ;)

Blake: Awesome!!

Blake called us to take some personal portraits that really expressed his personality and interests. We said "of course" and had such a great time. Blake is such a rad guy. I loved his outfits and his personal "flair". I think Matt did an amazing job, I'm so proud of his art. I loved looking through these images and I hope you will too!
