this engagement session was so sweet to us. nicole was the first model we ever shot, and now we get to shoot her wedding! we knew she was a beautiful person – inside and out – but she might have some competition now that we’ve met dustin, leia, and seth!

seth is 4 years old… and an absolute cutie pie!

it took a little time for leia to warm up in front of the camera…

after some fun with dad, she was good to go!

the kiddos took a rest while we shot some lovey dovey photos with nicole + dustin. they are too sweet together :






we’ll be surrounded by bare feet at their wedding, which makes us super happy!






next stop… the railroad tracks!

seth got a lesson from chris



dustin swept nicole up right as the rain started coming down

nicole : we are so excited to be the ones to photograph you on your wedding day. you’re such an amazing person.
dustin : you are so sweet to nicole it makes us sick… in a good way! you two are perfect together! and by just being with you for 2 hours, we saw what an amazing dad you are as well.
leia + seth : you are two of the coolest kiddos around. we had so much fun with you on saturday and can’t wait to play with you again!
chris + allie
