I can’t even begin to explain how odd it is that we have a one year old. I feel like it was last week that I was heading to my midwife to meet my precious girl and now she’s a toddler. I can say for sure it has been one of the most challenging, rewarding, […]
There is almost nothing more rewarding then photographing a friend and that honor doubles when it’s their wedding day.
