Moments. I love every day life moments. The simple things and the simple ways we show love. Whether it’s cooking together, singing together or reading together. The very things that connect two people are the moments I love to capture. I love capturing the real moments on a wedding day and the moments between couples just being who they are. So today as some of you may be enjoying valentines day with your loved one, I encourage you to spend time doing the simple things that make you guys you! The things that are most special to you whether or not they are fancy or expensive. Just enjoy your moments together!

Adam + Carrie // Rockford Engagement Session

20.12.12
About 5 years ago, I met this incredible friend, Carrie. Since then our friendship has blossomed into one that I treasure beyond words. From watching Golden Girls and eating Cheesecakes to forming a dance group or simply just chatting about life. We’ve been through it all. She is basicly my twin and I love her to death. So when she told me she got engaged, naturally my happiness for her was pure joy and excitement. And I’m so glad to be standing by her on her big day. But enough about my babbling, I wanted to share some words from Carrie and Adam. And a little bit about their love story!
Words from the couple:
The way that Adam and Carrie met is the definition of “divine intervention.” Carrie (born in Seoul, South Korea, which has a population of over 10.5 million) was adopted into a family from Pittsfield, a small, 4,000-person town in west central Illinois. Had Carrie remained in South Korea, she and Adam would have grown up and lived their lives 6,625 miles apart and likely never would have meet. Instead, they both grew up with families that lived 1.5 miles apart, attended the same school from elementary school through high school and saw each other almost every single day, without even realizing what was to become of their friendship.
It wasn’t until 5 years later when Adam received a random Facebook message from Carrie, asking to see if he’d be interested in doing a duet for Carrie’s church on Easter Sunday. To make a long story short, they hit it off from there and have been inseparable since. Then, one day Adam couldn’t wait any longer and finally proposed. He planned a night to remember. He got his sister Becca to cook a dinner of Carrie’s favorite foods. Over candlelight and music, they had a wonderful dinner. Then he took her outside to go dance under the stars like they did for the first time together in his parents’ back yard. After a while they made it back to the back porch with candles lit everywhere. This is where they had their first date, first kiss and first “I love you.” This was their “spot.” After shedding many tears, it also became where Adam got down on one knee and proposed.
{What Carrie loves about Adam} I am so blessed. Adam is one of the most caring, sincere persons I have ever met. He is always there to help others out, even if it’s inconvenient for him, he won’t hesitate to fulfill a need. If I’m feeling down or stressed with school, he jumps right in to relieve my tension. He is always thinking of ways to make me happy and he succeeds every time. He’s also the smartest and most talented man I know, but of course he would never tell you that. If you know anything about me, then you know how much I love to laugh. Adam’s humor, jokes, and cute little gestures are constantly making me smile. But most importantly, it’s the way we’ve been able to grow as a couple in Christ. His genuine love for Jesus and serving others is something I look forward to witnessing every day. It’s the simple things about Adam that I love and appreciate. These are the qualities that I will cherish and look forward to during our lifetime together.
{What Adam loves about Carrie} What I love about Carrie cannot be said in a paragraph. It cannot be said in a story, book or anthology. What I love about Carrie is everything. Her personality is unlike any that you would ever experience twice. It is totally unforgettable. My friends and family have felt so blessed to just have spent time with Carrie. The ultimate blessing is that she will now become an official part of our family. Every experience with her is more than a memory. Every gesture and act of pure kindness is so genuine. I have to pinch myself on occasion just to remind myself that this is happening. God has delivered me an angel. And this is real. I would never have guessed that being reunited with an old friend after 5+ years would lead to this. Carrie is not my friend anymore. She is my best friend. And on June 15, 2013, I become the luckiest man in the world. My best friend will be my wife.

Ben + Amy // Chicago Engagement Session

14.11.12
The week had started out in the 70′s but as the engagement session drew near the temperature significantly dropped. But that didn’t stop us from going out and having a fun time. I met Amy in college! She is definitely one of the sweetest girls I know! Who has a fiance that clearly shows how much he cares and loves her. Sometimes it really is the little things that make the biggest difference. Like the way you can tell he listens as she talks to him or how he can make her laugh at the drop of a hat. I love how much they love. And I am soo excited to share Ben and Amy’s engagement session on the blog today!
Love makes a Family {Personal Portrait}

17.9.12
A tripod and willing participants is all it took. It had been over 14 years since we had taken family pictures. Not even realizing how simple it was. Okay I’m sure it helped that I am now a photographer. But honestly professional or not professional I think family pictures are the most important pictures you can take. So make time, make an effort and get some pictures done. I’ll be honest I was a little nervous because one I’ve never personally take family pictures before. 2. I usually don’t work with a tripod and three, I wasn’t quite sure what it would be like shooting people so close to you. I didn’t even know if I’d be able to do it. So I just tried my best!
But thankfully all of those never seemed to be a factor. If anything it was just a day of bonding and fun. And I actually learned alot. Like I didn’t realize how much my dad loves being in front of the camera, acutally my whole family for that matter. I love my family more than words can express. They are my support, my heart and they make me laugh like there is no tomorrow. I realize how blessed I am. Sadly my brother and my sister in law were not able to make it for this day. But hopefully they will be at the next! Which I am making sure won’t be another 14+ years.
