“Oh, Canada”

I spent the last 4 days in Calgary, Alberta to shoot one of my dear friends wedding. I saw the beautiful mountains, ate some Tim Hortons, bought ketchup chips, laughed a ton, went to my first bar and drank my first shot, and met some wildly awesome people. The wedding was fab, the weather was glorious, and the country actually surprised me by its lush landscapes and plenty to do. It also made my wallet cry from how expensive everything was!

Here are a couple shots from my trip as well as from the wedding. To see more of my work, check out my website (here).

Hope everyone enjoyed their week! I certainly did.

Swooning over my dinner date

Swooning over my dinner date

Tonight Tucker decided that we weren’t spending enough time together and demanded to have dinner with me.

I figured, I suppose I can sacrifice for the fellow…
No just kidding I was all,
‘HECK YEAH’

So we went to the grocery store and picked up some things and then we came to my house. We cooked and laughed hysterically and he asked me about my heart and what my day was like. He asked me if I was happy and shared some things he was learning and wanting to grow in.

Going on a rabbit trail here but the other night I was reading my Bible and I opened to the front flap where he had written me a note. He gave me the Bible I have now when he found out I had lost mine. I started crying as I read the beautiful poetic things that were written.

All around me I hear of these horrible relationships and failed marriages. I know that there are so many unhappy people who have stopped fighting for their love.
Then I think of how blessed I am to not only have the greatest friend in the world, but to have him be mine. He is the only reason we are still together after over 2 years of our relationship. He fights for us everyday and no matter how horrible and ugly my attitude is, he never stops praying and he never stops loving. He is absolutely the best person I know and I can’t believe how lucky I am to have him. It honestly blows my mind. Seriously no one even knows the depth of his faithfulness and love. He shares his heart with only a select few & I get the privilege and honor of being one of those people.

Anyways, if you are still there and have managed to keep your barf inside your body I commend you. That was quite the intense love fest. I just can’t help it!!

Tonight was amazing!!! Look how cute he is!!!

hiii

 

p.s. I did eat about 3x the amount he did. Why am I a cow.
I just kept shoveling and shoveling potatoes in my mouth. It was completely un-ladylike and I am completely unashamed.

Hope you all have someone to love you and someone to love…
