My name is Emily.

I love people in love.

I cry at every wedding.

I own a striped umbrella. Everyone should.

I love my pug. His name is Edward.

I dream of having a house with enough closet hooks for my scarves and hats.

Laughing is great.

I believe there is nothing better than a day with the people you love.

And I absolutely love to take photos.


And this is my blog. Expect to see people in love, expect to laugh and read, and expect to see what I love and why I love it! Welcome to my blog. I am glad you are here.

Since tonight many of us will be popping the bubblie, wearing sparkly party hats and kissing someone at the official turn of the New Year I thought it was only appropriate to look back over our *AMAZING* 2009 wedding season!

I am going to take just a small moment to brag about how fabulously awesome our couples and clients are; and never has this been more evident than as I sit here looking through all of their beautiful smiles and recap just how perfect each and every wedding was this year! Not only is each couple totally in love and thrilled to be getting married but they are *hands down* the most fun, photogenic, and happy clients around! :)

The pictures look great Emily! I'm hoping to get my new website up and running in 2010, and hopefully get some more business. Congrats on all of your success this last year! I hope it continues for many years to come. :o)
