Always and Forever

One month ago today, on a rustic log bench along Lake Michigan, the love of my life handed me a rose, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him. 

I did a mini-self engagement shoot this past weekend. The autumn colors are at their peak right now, and we enjoyed walking the beautiful trails.

Every day, I fall more in love with this man...

...who loves me so much more than I ever dreamed possible!

On December 31, 2012, we'll begin our new life together.

Greg and Kathy

I've had a camera in hand-or at least within reach- most of my life. I've photographed people of all ages in many situations. This Summer I realized that, in the tens of thousands of pictures I've snapped, one element was missing: an engagement shoot!

A few weeks later, Greg and Kathy asked me to do their engagement photos. I couldn't have been happier! It was an honor to capture their joy. 

Look for wedding photos in March!
