We reminisce about the time where I used to work out of my tiny apartment and make-shift studio where I would make potential clients take their shoes off before coming in and be forced to pet my very docile 80lb rescued pit bull, Booda.  Oh, those were the days.

Their wedding was the start of a huge new venture for them as a couple and for me as an independent wedding photographer trying to bridge the gap between being a creative artist and running a studio that paid the bills.

(here are a couple shots from their wedding in 2004)

So here we are…now alomst 8 years later and they are pregnant with twins!  It’s as if everything has come full circle for me.

I’m so proud to be able to feature their shots on my blog and I am overwhelmingly convinced that these guys are going to be amazing parents.  They are both gentle souls with the patience of a saint.  I saw that Sara posted on facebook the other day that her new twins (born just a week ago) have “turned their lives right-side up”.  It was a simple sentiment that brought tears to my eyes.

Congrats on your newest additions and thank you for trusting that the fresh-faced photographer from so many years ago would be able to document so much of your milestones and joy!

During the brainstorming session Sarah had a few stipulations before the session but mainly, she wanted unconventional images. I’m always receptive to clients who want to do something a bit different from the norm and in this case, I wanted to capture their super playful and loving personalities while also honoring how gorgeous they are as a couple.

The last image is one of my faves because it highlights the sweet and loving connection between these two.  Their baby will be so blessed to come in to this world with such fabulous parents!  Thank you S and  C for allowing me to document this amazing time in your lives!!
