Engaged: Katelyn & Peter

My 3 Favorite Things about Katelyn & Peter:

1.  They’ve decided to get married in January.  In Minnesota. And they’re not afraid of outdoor photos.
2.  They’re so fresh faced and wholesome.  It’s endearing and refreshing.
3.  Katelyn approaches everything like it’s the most exciting thing happening at that given minute. Between the two of us, our email exchanges read like color commentary.

Engaged: Kristin & Ryan

My 3 Favorite Things about Kristin & Ryan:

1.  They challenged me to find three things I liked about them; I think they were just trying to pressure me into getting more than 3.  Nice try, suckers.
2.  Kristin “raised the roof” when passersby honked at them. I can’t wait to see the moves she breaks out at the wedding.
3.  hmmm.  Well…  This is awkward…  Just kidding!  I insisted that Ryan was done with his ice cream cone.  He insisted he wasn’t.  I like obstinance.

Thanks for being so much fun, you two!

Married: Chantel & Levi

My 3 Favorite Things about Chantel & Levi

1.  Chantel’s expressions: Pure elation.  Levi’s expressions: Happy to be here.
2.  When I was shooting her portraits, Chantel whispered to me, “I’ve been practicing in the mirror.”  Atta girl.
3.  Working with these two felt like working with family.  But not the icky, have to hang out with you because we share the same genetic material type of family.  The other type of family.

Engaged: Gretchen & Gabe

My 3 Favorite Things about Gretchen & Gabe:

1.  Alliteration.  Their names just sound good together, right?!
2.  They both went to college in Iowa.  I mean, who doesn’t love Iowa?  Granted, it isn’t my preferred college of choice, but…it’ll do.
3.  Gretchen & Gabe actually met in a laundromat.  I thought that only happened in Meg Ryan movies.

Engaged: Kerrie & Ben

My 3 Favorite Things about Kerrie & Ben

1.  They’re both teachers.  My parents are teachers.  It takes a special type of person to be a teacher.

2.  Kerrie has an incredibly expressive face.

3. They enjoyed the Farmer’s Market as much as I did.  If not, they at least pretended they did.
