i love when our clients become friends.
and i love love love when our friends become our clients- to photograph a friend, and know that you get to document a special milestone in their life, to tell their story the way it should be told- not only does it leave me speechlessly honored but receiving the contact form always makes me so full of excitement-
receiving the e mail from alex was no different. i met alex my freshman year at drake university and loved her instantly. for lack of a better way to say it, i'm left to borrow from an overused cliche- but she truly has a magnetic personality. when i finally had a chance to meet her fiance, derek- it was no surprise that he was absolutely adorable and filled the room with the same "i have to know them" feeling. their personalities and their incredible interaction with each other really made it so fantastic to photograph their engagement - and has me so eagerly awaiting their may 14th wedding! congrats congrats congrats & be sure to keep your eyes open in may for what is sure to be quite an amazing celebration! [did i mention alex is a super talented artist- she was the photo editor at the drake magazine when i was there, so in addition to feeling honored and excited..add the anticipated nervousness of photographing a photographer :) ]
