I am posting a link to a song that i think every couple should listen too..... the photos following it are part of my inspiration from the song ( more to follow )

SHANE & LINDSAY

This is one of the sweetest couples ever. I have known Lindsay for the last year and have watched her wait for this day like the strong women she is. I am so blessed to call her my friend her love , devotion and tender heart is just a few of the things about her that you can see that Shane has fallen head over heels for. Shane has been serving over in Iraq and is home for 2 weeks to relax .. well not quite.. :)  the wedding is on tuesday and they are running around and planning things and trying to squeeze in as much alone time as they can. I am so looking forward to Tuesday you two ... ( IT WILL BE AMAZING ) 

LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH !!!!

Ps. we shot these photos in Angel's Stadium and even got a 

very PRIVATE tour it was a day ill never forget ..... 

THE PHONE BOOTH

 THIS IS MY AMAZING ASSISTANT MAKING A PHONE CALL ON THE JOB 

HE IS SO FIRED :)  

I LIKED IT SO I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE IT WITH YOU .. 

Jeff & Courtney

I have known Jeff since I was 13-14 ( I believe .. time is something I have never been good with) 

His family was one who's friendship I have cherished for years and that no matter how much time goes by between our visits it is always amazing to be with them again. So when Jeff wrote me on facebook and told me that he asked Courtney to be his bride I was thrilled and soo nervous to meet the soon to be Mrs. JEFF R. ( little did I know that I would very quickly love her as I do the rest of the R. family ) she is amazing , bright and so sweet.... Jeff & Courtney thank you for letting me be a part of your life & such a big part of your wedding. I can't wait for next year. :)  LOVE, CS
