I could not be more excited about  photographing the wedding of these two this weekend!  I’m even more excited that it’s supposed to be nice and warm ( I actually sent Kayli a text last Saturday, thanking her for not getting married that day…BRRRR) :)  Kayli and I have become great friends over the past year while she’s planned out all the details of her wedding day. She’s sought out my advice a few times and I have enjoyed living vicariously through a young brides eyes.  Tim is also thankful that I’m getting it out of my system so I don’t follow through on the threat to re-commit our vows for the sake of having new wedding photos ;)  Kayli has fabulous taste and I cannot wait to see how everything is going to come together on Saturday!  I’ve even seen her dress and it’s AMAZING!!

We scheduled their engagement session way back in the Spring when the never-ending rain was ruining most of my plans.  The morning of the shoot it was very dreary and I was shocked that we didn’t get rained on!  Kayli and Doug just went with it and kept snuggling to stay warm.  It is always a fun surprise when the overcast skies open up new shooting opportunities you never noticed before and we found a few gems along the way…and these two know how to work it ;)

Kayli had one request for her session…that we find a weeping willow tree.  After looking all over the place, I realized my girlfriend who lives across the road has one in her backyard….  Isn’t that what neighbors are for?!

Doug’s such a handsome guy :)  I can’t wait to see him in a tux!!!

Kayli and Doug, I have enjoyed every moment of working with you and I know Saturday is going to be even more of the same!  I can’t believe your day is almost here!  And while all the planning and preparing, the meetings and details have at times seemed overwhelming, know that when it’s all said and done the day is about the two of you and the relationship you have.  I wish nothing for the best for you both :)
