melissa and brian

melissa is the sister of a good friend of mine.. she is getting married to a super nice guy. right off the bat, i love these people! so relaxed and FUN! and they met in a really neat way. brian's beautiful daughter came along today, and i snapped a couple with her too. i hope you enjoy looking at these as much as i had taking them! congrats you two!

Emalee and Olivia

i've known these adorable girls for a couple years now... and i think this is the third time i have been lucky enough to take pics of them. they just get cuter every single time i see them!

misty B.

my gorgeous friend misty and i went wading through a river today, in the most beautiful location. misty looks amazing now, after working so hard to lose weight and take care of herself (not that she wasnt before!!) we took some pics of her and she looks so beautiful!
