When I was little, I used to pretend I was a horse. Or a wolf. Sometimes a tiger. Whatever suited my fancy. I was one of thooose girls. I didn't really play with dolls or put on lipstick and wear my mom's heels. Instead, I created elaborate stories in my head and played them out for hours, sometimes days, until the story was complete.

As I got older, I thought for a time that I wanted to be a writer. Instead of acting out the stories in my imagination, I tried to put them on paper. I would sit down and start these grand novels, only to begin another one after a few chapters in the first. I had every intention of finishing them. I just... never did. Apparently writing isn't my strong suit.

Then I found a camera. Jackpot. I found a way to stop time. To tell real stories. The kind of stories that should be remembered. Need to be remembered. Stories full of life and love that beg to be preserved and shared.

So I guess you could call me a story teller. A really, really ridiculously blessed and happily married story teller who can't cook but laughs a lot and has three dogs. I love my life.

And I'd love to tell your story : )

Park City Engagements: Brittany + Kevin

It started with a casual dinner date. Which went pretty well. Well enough that it lead to a few more casual dinner dates. That’s when Brittany decided they should make it official, unbeknownst to Kevin. Because when Brittany knows what she wants, well, she knows. Haha. Fortunately, though, Kevin figured it out rather quickly. He was more than happy to oblige, too. Because he wanted her right back.

And so a year went by. Followed by another, and another. They stayed busy with school, work, and living life to the full, all the while doing it together. Until four years later, Kevin decided it was time to make it really official. On what Brittany thought was just another one of their dinner dates, Kevin bent down on one knee outside of the restaurant and proposed to the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. Officially. Of course, she said yes. They went inside and celebrated, with a free dessert to boot. And maybe several more free desserts in the following weeks. After all, what better way to celebrate an engagement than a free dessert?! These are my kind of people ; ) Soon, though, they’ll be getting free desserts for being newlyweds. For being married. For being together for the rest of their lives. Officially : )

Brittany and Kevin brought their dogs along for a few pictures, which I thoroughly enjoyed! Reba and Zeus were total sweethearts.
