I was so thrilled I had the opportunity to visit a couple of my dear friends in Annapolis, MD last month to do a little Just Because shoot with them. What better day is there to post a few favorites from their session than their Anniversary! It is such a special day to see one of your best friends find and marry their perfect other half. Chris fit in perfectly with Laura friends and family, we all love him for Laura. Thank you Chris for being so awesome for Laura, for understanding her, for keeping her centered and for loving her always...oh and for loving her friends like me ;)
The two lovely people I'm talking about...please meet Laura and Chris...and their super awesome boxer pup, Tucker.
Tucker looking mighty dapper in this bow tie.Happy 2 year anniversary, no doubt there will be many more to come! Lots of love!
Laura: We are going to have the best Christmas photo ever because of you! we should make it an annual thing! :o) the hardest part is going to be picking our favorite image...there are too many to choose from! (30.11.2011, 12:11PM)

Marla and John had a beautiful uptown wedding ceremony and reception. Many of you have already seen how gorgeous Marla looked in her bridals here - seriously how beautiful is she? Marla and John were so relaxed and were all smiles while they were getting ready. These two probably had one of the best First Looks ever. Some are filled with tears, some are filled with big laughs and hugs. Their first look entailed huge smiles and a high-five. AWESOME. This wedding truly had it all - such loving and supportive family and friends, laughter, a beautiful ceremony, heartfelt toasts and prayers and of course lots of dancing with an amazing band that played all night long!
