So many great shots to share....I cannot wait for you to see them!!!  :)

You know those type of people who make you feel good by just being around?  Well...Sarah and Brandon are those type of people.  They are so happy around one another and sooo in love!  I have known Sarah for several years now (she is Joe's sister....my sister-in-law) and I have never seen her so happy.  Even if you don't know either of them...you can see that they are meant to be with eachother. 

I was so happy to be able to be a part of their day.......even though Joe could not shoot with me.  He had the honor of standing up as a groomsman in his sister's wedding.  It was different seeing him on the other side of the camera for once!!  This did give me the opportunity to shoot with someone else for once........thanks to Terra for all of her awesome second shooter-ness!!

Aren't they so cute.....??

 

We really enjoyed spending the evening at Lake Michigan with this couple!  This is their first little one.....we can't wait to meet him!  Josh and Kathleen decided to keep his name a secret until he is born.......we were lucky enough to be priviliged to learn his name early for the photo shoot.  I was sworn to secrecy....you won't find any pics with his name here!!!  You will have to check back in a few weeks to find out :)

Believe it or not......Kathleen is 3ish weeks away from meeting the little guy in these photos!  She looks great!!  I bet he is going to be a cutie!!!

 

I absolutely adore this photo....

Kathleen looks gorgeous in the photo!

I am lovin' the sunflares lately......

Meghan was so fun to work with.....she is obviously GORGEOUS and sooo photogenic!  All day I secretly kept wishing that we had one more hour.....one more outfit....one more location.....  I had such a difficult time choosing photos for her blog post...she looks amazing in every single one of them.  Good luck picking your faves Meghan!!!
