cabrewing with friends.

i woke up this morning thinking about the few but great friends mark and i have here in columbus. with school, work and other various life situations it seems like we rarely get to visit with them but when we do its always a blast. corey and nicole mauro and mark and i seem to have started a tradition of spending memorial day canoeing in the hocking hills (ohio). we really have to thank them for introducing us to this wonderful, fun and relaxing event. its always an adventure! 

somehow we can make a 5 mile canoe trip last 6 hours!! 

and there is never a dull moment!

(yeah- second to last photo- we thought we were being hunted by angry canoers LOL)

cheers!

love will keep us together

i'm amazed at how much i missed sharing while not posting for a year!  i also see how much i didn't post on my facebook either.  what the heck happened, its like i was abducted for a year LOL.  i wasn't so don't worry.  but i have been slowly catching up and i'm feeling so much better.

we were asked to photograph a wedding last october that really took my breath away.  it was practically my dream wedding!!  i mean WOW.  i loved the dress, the unique bouquet, the color scheme, the time of year, the downtown columbus location and EVERY little detail including the "love birds" theme.  it was like i walked in to my own mind and saw it happen for real.  it was such a lovely day.  it made us actually dream of having a wedding someday. which we hadn't really considered until now...

absolutely stunning!  

at the time mark and i weren't engaged, but a little over a month later we were!  i'd like to think this date sparked a romance in our lives and we knew we couldn't live without each other.  i guess weddings can do that to you!  we are taking our time and haven't set a date as of yet... but i look forward to sharing our engagement story sometime soon!
