Sometimes my job doesn’t feel like work – like when I get to photograph fun/romantic/silly couples like Fernie + Shantell! Their smiles came just as easily as the snuggles, and their giggles weren’t far behind the whispered secrets, the 98 Degrees serenade, and the overly-roasted marshmallows. :-)

Thanks, you two, for giving me a little preview of how *awesome* your wedding is going to be!! Now, enjoy a few of my favorites from this weekend!

Doesn’t Shantell look just like Kelly Ripa?! I felt a tiny bit star-struck photographing her. But then she brought me down to earth with her hairstylist banter – seriously, stylists have this natural ability to make friends with anyone, I swear. :-)

I *have* to share this goofy out-take from the s’mores section of their session, because this is the fun/goofy side I want them, their families, and their future kids and grandkids to remember. :-)
