Happy Mother’s Day to all the mother’s out there
And to all the Mothers-To-Be.
A couple weeks ago, I met up with Leslie and Justin for a couple’s shoot in Moscow. Leslie and I went to college together, and although we try to keep in touch, our busy lives prevent us from hanging out too often. I was so excited for the opportunity to take these pictures for Leslie and Justin. They’ve been married for two and a half years, but they wanted to take the opportunity to take pictures just the two of them. No real special occasion. Just a celebration of their love. I LOVE taking pictures of couples. And, while, adore weddings, I especially love engagement and couples shoots. I love this act of celebrating love. These types of pictures aren’t about a venue, a dress, or a cake. They’re just about you and the person you’ve chosen to have at your side. And I think that’s pretty special. Don’t you?
Oh, did I mention that in addition to being gorgeous, these two are actually quite the comedians? It’s true.
What did I tell you? GORGEOUS!
This next series of photos is special because this is the park where these two got engaged. To be specific, it was by the swings.

This morning, my son Samory woke me up at 5:30. He hadn’t slept well all night, and I groaned when I heard him start to chatter from his crib. I stayed curled up in bed, hoping that he would drift back to sleep. The chattering became louder and louder and he eventually let out one loud, long scream to let me know that he no longer wanted to play be himself. Reluctantly, I pushed away the covers and dragged my feet to Sam’s bedroom. He was standing there, smiling away. We hurried to get dressed. Well, Sam got dressed. At 5:30, I figured I could get away with sweat pants. We drove a few miles past our apartment and found a little spot just outside one of the local parks. So glad this little guy woke me up. I don’t take enough pictures of him, and he’s growing up way too fast.

About a month ago, I had the opportunity to photograph the family of a high school friend. Kara and her husband Justin are one of the sweetest, most in love couples I have ever met. And they were high school sweethearts! How endearing is that? Now, they have a gorgeous little boy named Rogan and another little boy on the way. I had such a wonderful time capturing this sweet family in their home. I could just feel the love among them, and I hope that you can get a sense of that in these images.
