brit at heart,
horse girl,
sarcasm at its finest.

I believe...

That laughing can cure anything. That you should always keep your word. Sometimes traditional is the best..the fads will fade. I believe that sitting under the stars is good for your soul, and nothing beats a good dessert. I believe that love is unconditional but love requires work. I believe your spouse should be your best friend that you can grow old with. I want to be that funny old couple in a restaurant throwing our straw wrappers at each other.

"Samantha is WONDERFUL!!! She truly has a vision for photography and I cannot say enough good things about her work! We used her for our engagement photos, my boudoir photos, and our wedding photos and all of our pictures turned out AMAZING! She is very easy to work with and a fun person in general. We got to know each other on a personal level and I plan on having her as our "family photographer" in the future!"
