A Man's Best Friend

So we have some serious dog lovers in our families (including ourselves) so Mark and I thought it would be fun to make a Dog Calendar for Christmas presents. We had a blast doing this. We had some dogs that were little posers (the good kind), and some dogs that were more hyper and hard to catch them sitting still. Some were a challenge and some were a breeze. But overall we had fun putting the project together. So here are the photos! Fun huh?










A Beautiful Bronco Day

Wow so here it is almost New Years and I haven't blogged about this fun and beautiful wedding we did back in October. I am so behind on my blogging!!!! I'm so sorry Rayvin and Justin. Rayvin is a friend of mine from my years in middle school. She asked us to take her wedding photos, I thought was really special.
Rayvin and Justin got married on October 20th, and was sporting Boise's favorite colors Blue and Orange.

Rayvin looked absolutely stunning.... I loved her dress (I thought about stealing it. ;) JK!). But it was definately my kind of dress.... a princess dress. It had beautiful ruffles and rhinestones. Rayvin wore this beautiful head band and hair net. She had blue and orange heels. The bridesmaids wore blue dresses with orange sashes, except for the Maid of Honor who wore a silver dress. The jr bridesmaid and flower girl work blue and orange tutus. SO CUTE!

We met the boys at the train depot for some pictures. Each party stepping out of the limo for the big reveal moment. This is my favorite moment with any wedding, you just can't help but smile. Of course Justin was impressed with his beautiful bride. This group was so fun and easy to take photos of, and than Mark and I got to enjoy the couple's company for some individual shots.

The wedding was out in Nampa at a fairly new event place. I loved the high ceilings and the modern feel that the place gave off. When Rayvin's dad walked her down the aisle he spun her, which I thought was so sweet. We can officially say we've never seen that before. This ceremony was full of laughter and tears. Right before the bride walked down the aisle I heard the groom, Justin, say to the officient that he hadn't been this excited in a really long time. Justin was beaming, even before Rayvin walked down the aisle.

My favorite moment though throughout the night was the first dances. Those were some of my favorite pictures. You couldn't help but watch this couple as they embraced each other tightly, whispering in each others ears. Ravyin also has a very close relationship with her grandparents so when she was dancing with her grandfather I teared up a few times.

Overall this was an amazing wedding and we enjoyed every second of it. May you two have a long and happy life together! Congrats on expecting your little one in 2013!

Enjoy!
