There are a ton of reasons I love Lisa and Ben. Not only did they have a Midsummer Night's Dream themed wedding, not only is Lisa now my facebook friend, not only is Ben a huge Astros fan like me, not only did their guests do the entire Thriller dance correctly at the reception, but also, Lisa and Ben made me cry. Not in a bad way. They made me cry when they emailed me the nicest note. I can say that I have shot nearly a hundred weddings now and every single time I show people their images, I'm still freaked out and nervous. It's my interpretation of one of the most important days of their lives and I want to get it right. Lisa and Ben's note just made me think to myself how unbelievable it is sometimes that I get to do what I love for a living. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Taylor for trusting me.
These were taken at one of my favorite gelato places. My favorite flavors are pistachio almond and banana cream pie. And now, Maddy likes banana cream pie gelato ;) Even though the image of Maddy and I is out of focus (which I know wasn't intentional because I handed my camera to my 12 year old cousin) I loved it as soon as I saw it. There I am, holding my baby girl while she laughs and all you can see in focus is her hand on my shoulder. I hope she'll grow up knowing that she'll always have it. My shoulder for support, for crying, for resting, for laughing, for anything...
