They brought their bike to the engagement session. Do I love them? Oh yes, I do.

She loves his blue eyes. And his energetic, full of life, and oh-so adventurous spirit.

He thinks she is gorgeous and has a great laugh. Her gullibility is adorable, he thinks. He loves the way she listens to him dream. And her cooking? Well, it is to die for.

Mike plans on attending graduate school and Mollie plans to teach first grade. Together they like to hike, explore, and find peaceful, off the beaten path locations to talk. And sit. Together they will travel the world. Together they are beautiful. =)

See their Slide show HERE. Mollie and Mike have a lovely wedding planned for June. Cannot wait!

Mollie, Mollie…you are so pretty.

On another note, I have been thinking lately how our choices and decisions (even really small ones) really do directly affect us years down the road. Such as….go back about four or five years ago when I worked up enough courage to approach the photographer at a wedding where I was a guest. I had just purchased my new 40D, was a total novice, and really wanted to learn. He generously invited me to tag along with him sometime. I did. Then he invited me to assist at a wedding. I was SO nervous, but I did. What do you know, a bridesmaids from this wedding actually liked me and invited ME to photograph her wedding. Now I was REALLY nervous. =) Fast forward several years and today I am photographing this bride’s little sister, Mollie’s wedding. Isn’t it crazy how a small, spur of the moment desicion set this and many other weddings I am photographing into action? No moral of the story…just something I have been thinking about. Maybe it is my age! Ha. =)
