After a few months of bed rest…at long last…their precious baby girl arrived.  She was so sweet to photograph and I can see that not only is she the apple of her parents eye….but Memphis, their great dane,  is in-love too….who by the way was photographed a couple of years ago by the incredible Erin Vey – an amazing dog photographer!

What a beautiful and complete family!

I admit that I am a hopeless romantic. I love sappy movies and cry at almost anything, and I always love to hear the details of a great LOVE STORY.

I am pretty sure that my grandparents have the greatest LOVE STORY of all from beginning to end.  I loved listening to them tell me the story about how they met – my grandma worked in her brothers Harley Davidson shop and my grandpa had noticed her there and had asked her out.  My grandma’s brother wasn’t too sure about this fella but all worked out and they were soon married.  They were married for over 50 years. Their marriage was full and beautiful until the day they passed away.

I am so excited about this new product offering that I want to give someone a chance to win a complimentary LOVE STORY session and one 10×10 10 spreads(20 page) album!
