craig + karrie groomals

i have been so excited to share the rest of craig and karrie's groomal session (see them here, here, and here)!!! they were and absolute joy to work with! they are so sweet and i had so much fun with them. karrie is very creative and had a lot of great ideas for locations. i love groomal sessions and highly recommend them to any couple who feels okay with being a bit untraditional.

aren't these shoes the BEST?!

i'm on a boat

i had an unexpected summer vacation! my AMAZING cousins kylee and ryan planned a trip for all of the cousins in utah to lake powell. i'm so glad i went for a couple of days. oh my goodness a boating trip was exactly what i needed, also, i haven't been camping in years. like an idiot i forgot to bring anything to sleep on, kylee was a doll and shared her blankets, and toothpaste, another necessity i forgot. the first day was a 7 hour car ride down to the lake. we went boating for a couple of hours until a freak wind storm forced us to dock. ryan was a master sea captain and safely navigated our crew back to shore despite never having driven a boat through such weather. we screamed and laughed for 25 minutes as waves crashed into our boat like water knives in our faces!

they were both smiling so cute until i turned my camera on them.. hahaha that seems to happen a lot:

mason LOVED driving the boat.

kylee and shalayne:

the scenery is gorgeous, and my favorite time of day is sunset:

ryan, navigator-on-sea-and-land extraordinaire:

the stupid wood wouldn't catch fire, so we mostly roasted marshmallows over cardboard:

i love this picture because he was climbing over the seat to come give me a kiss. SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!! :

seriously, WHO could resist a delicious baby kiss from that perfect little mouth?!?!?!?!?!
