Beth and Jason - Sneak Peek!

This past Saturday, January 23rd, Jason and Beth celebrated their entrance into the amazing covenant of marriage! And they allowed me to come along and document their journey! Here are just a few sneak peeks from the wonderful day, and the rest of the pictures will come later!

Dear Beth, you are gorgeous!! You made a beautiful bride :)

Her beautiful bouquet and rings :)

After the ceremony, when Beth and Jason walked out as "Mr and Mrs Woodward" some friends from the military gave them a saber salute, and the last gentleman (on the left) hit her on the backside as a little joke :) Here's her reaction...

Beautiful! :)

First dance!

Seriously fun couple - majorly adorable!

Thanks again, Beth and Jason! The rest of the pictures will be uploaded by the end of the week! Enjoy your first week as Mr. and Mrs. Woodward :)

Ashley and Ben | Engaged

When Ashley called me on Thanksgiving and said, "Guess what?" I knew what was coming...I just had this gut intuition as to what she was going to tell me. And then she said it, and I can just imagine her smiling ear to ear when she said, "I'M ENGAGED!" Ash and I met at K-State almost two years ago through work and formed a great friendship, that even lasts 1000 miles away while Ashley goes to school in Florida!

Ben told Ashley they were gonna take a little detour while she was home, and stop at her favorite place- her grandparent's lake house. He said they had time and not to worry! I'm sure there was some cute stuff said, and he got down on one knee and popped the big question! :)

My good friend Laura and I had the great chance to double shoot their engagement session, and the pictures turned out great! It was a blustery 9 degrees out, but great lighting :) And I'm so excited to shoot their wedding on January 1, 2011 (my first booking for 2011! whoo!) Okay, okay, I'll be quiet now...just look at their pictures :)

Okay, this next image just makes my heart so happy :)

Love this one :) Ash, you are beautiful!

Check out that beautiful ring! Ash wanted something vintage, but classic, and I think Ben nailed it on the head with this one!

Thank you again so much for asking me to come along on the engagement session and to shoot your wedding! I'm so excited for January 2011 :)
