Good morning!  And happy Thursday!  Holla!  The weekend is almost here and I can hardly wait!  Today is kind of a special day. :-) Not only are we so excited to show you more pictures of my crazy brother and his sweet fiancée, but this is Jesie’s inaugural post!  She’ll eventually have her own blog, but for now you can see some of her work here. :-) So with that… enjoy Jesie’s images!

Do you know the sure sign that your bride and groom are the coolest?  Well, a really cool bride and groom bring you an engagement shoot surprise!  Wanna see my surprise? …

Uh-huh!  They brought me Pixie!  Someone must have dropped them a note that I’m a dog girl, and there’s only one thing better than a dog.  A puppy!  She was so cute… almost as cute as Alyssa & Kevin.  You probably recognize these two.  Kevin is René’s sweet brother.  He means the world to her and when they asked me to shoot their wedding, I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else.

Let me tell you about Alyssa and Kevin.  These guys have a sense of humor as high as the sky.  I think we did more laughing during this shoot than actual shooting.  But with them, you just can’t help it.  But every once in a while, just when they thought I wasn’t paying attention, I’d catch a quick glimpse of how romantic he can be with her.  The way he would wrap his arms all the way around her as tight as he could.  Or the way she would swing her arms around the back of his neck to kiss him.  You watch them and see that their love, their companionship, is so natural.  They’ll be together forever.  And forever definitely won’t be a boring one.

Kevin, this shot is so model-esque!  Whew!

These two were my favorite shots of the whole day!  I should sell the one on the left to Hallmark :)

Alyssa and Kevin, thank you so much for the opportunity to shoot your wedding and get to know you better.
June just won’t be here fast enough.

Thrilled,
:) Jesie
