love stories: andrea + phil; miles + elmo

andrea + phil = happiest, smiley-est couple ever.

these two have incredibly infectious smiles

they are so totally in love... the infectious smiles are constant

which made for a super awesome engagement session.

dad teamed up with me for this shoot and the four of us had a marvelous time

wandering the streets of tacoma.

we began at a favorite quaint coffee shop

and ended at the pub

where the happiest, smiley-est couple had their very first date.

very. romantical.

and so much fun.

meet andrea and phil:

a very happy congratulations to andrea + phil!

thank you for letting me (and pops) celebrate with you.
cheers to happy, smiley wedding planning.

speaking of smiley...

my littlest buddy is five months old!

he has a BIG bright smile.
he giggles. he rolls
he tries desperately to suck his thumb while also drinking his bottle.
(makes me laugh all the time).
he drools so much, we have started calling him "bernard."
he melts my heart all day long.
he is in love with big brother.
also has a major crush on his funny red furry friend.

happy monday friends.
