fabulous friday find...

how many of you have thought of having a dress made just for you? don't know a seamstress? it's easier then you think!  etsy has so many amazing dress shops...these two shops caught our eye this week.  This ruffle number from katie jean is soooooo amazing.

there are no rules anymore, and short wedding dresses are so much fun!  sash couture  has some beauties to choose from!

bethany & caleb's pottery engagement...

bethany and caleb met in college, became friends... and then became "more than friends." now this perfect little couple is tying the knot in early june. i'm beyond excited to be a part of their wedding and adore both of them! while visiting during christmas, we braved the cold and windy weather for a few pictures. after fighting the wind and rain, i suggested we try something a little different... paint pottery. of course caleb gave me the "oh great face," and i'm pretty sure bethany was thinking the same thing... BUT it was soooo fun! we ventured to the artgarden and put caleb's graphic design background to work! the final was awesome!!!! 
as a side note... i've grown fond of sessions where our couples forget the camera's in their face, and relax. you get to see personalities come out, and it's so fun to get to know our couples in this new light.... thank you bethany and caleb for freezing your buns off, throwing some paint around and laughing the whole time! huge hugs and excited for the big day!
 caleb said choosing their mug colors was their first big "married decision"... 
it definately took some discussion! haha! ;)
a perfect couple...they have the same concentration face!
 i had the genius idea to have bethany kiss the cup so it was her actual lip prints.... we (i) didn't factor in that the cup was rounded... needless to say it didn't work so well, but it got a good laugh! :)
caleb's graphic design degree was put to good use... and he saved our lips :)

mirielle & jorge's tri-cities wedding...

mirielle and jorge are total hotness! after our engagement session with them we knew we were seriously lucky!!! needless to say they didn't disappoint on their wedding day either... sigh! these two and their incredible wedding parties braved the freezing weather conditions, got a serious case of wind burn, slightly rained on and smiled the whole time. it was totally worth it because their pictures turned out incredible! it's hard to narrow down your favorites for a blog post, and these few images barely scratch the surface... mirielle and jorge thank you for letting us be a part of your amazing day. we feel so honored to have spent the day with you, and so excited to call you friends! god bless!
jorge is a minor league baseball player... 
mirielle gave him cuff links made out of baseballs for wedding gift.
mirielle... you melt the camera! swoon!
ladies... the fact you're all smiling is a testament to how much you love mirielle :)... it was freezing!
dang sexy men! 
mirielle's mom said the only thing she had any "say" in for the wedding was the cake... 
she was so excited for the grooms cake she ordered for jorge. the cakes were awesome mom! :)

fabulous friday find...

nicole & ross's cave b wedding...

nicole and ross are simply wonderful. every wedding day should be approached with a certain amount of humor and these two did. through all the wedding day jitters they smiled, laughed and made the most of it.... we even got a "crouching jonda, hidden photographer" out of ross, which almost caused us to die laughing... if you've even been in front of our cameras, you know how true that statement is :)... these two tied the know at the lovely cave b winery and resort. thanks nicole and ross for all the laughs and fond memories! god bless and huge hugs!
