Near the very end of our session, as I was putting all my gear back into its bag, and we were warming up from the chilly shoot, I noticed Tina Marie and Brian having some hushed conversation. She walked over to me and made maybe the sweetest invitation I’ve ever heard. “Do you want to bring your husband to the wedding?” My heart absolutely melted.

Even though we had spoken on the phone only once and had just met earlier that day, I feel like I’ve known Tina Marie and Brian forever. They are both so magnetic, warm, and engaging that I feel like I’ve been sucked into this cocoon of friendship and excitement.

Their invitation speaks to their character; they are basically one big walking invitation for fun, love, and inclusion.

Tina Marie and Brian, I cannot wait to spend your wedding day with you, Adriana, and the rest of the gang. The fact that you were as excited about shooting in the snow as I was just makes me that much more excited to get ALL the photos of your big day. I have a feeling it’s going to be just like you two: a big, awesome party with a warm and fuzzy loving center.  Cannot wait!
