I love the way that some sessions are full of surprises! When Val contacted me to set up our time together, we had never met, so driving to their session I was super excited to finally get to know her. When I arrived, I discovered that our connections ran deeper than I could have imagined. Trent is a teacher at the school my children attend, his mom worked with our oldest boys during their first few years in school, my children have been praying for his sister all year, Trent and Val have like minded hearts and we were able to talk at length about college ministry and mentoring and discipleship. Talk about a fun surprise! All of these sweet little blessings unwrapped after a few simple emails to set up their session.
God is surely involved in the details and spending the evening with these two was a fabulous reminder of this!
Val and Trent are getting married out of state and while I won’t be there to capture their wedding day; I am beyond honored that I was able to document this incredible season in their lives!




















This is one of my favorites!






Every photographer eagerly awaits the moment when their clients become at complete ease in front of the camera. When they interact and smile and breathe in the moment without worrying about the lens. This little series was that magical moment!


















These two surely know how to have fun as well! They kept each other (and me) laughing and smiling the whole time!








Val and Trent, I am so blessed that our paths crossed and that we’ve gotten to know each other better over the past several weeks. I am thrilled beyond measure to see what God continues to do in your lives. May He remain the center of your relationship and may your marriage always be a reflection of His great love. Thank you for trusting me with these tender moments.
Blessings and Love,
Annie
