Dustin, Ashley, and Marley



















I had the privilege of taking pictures of one of the sweetest women I know along with the two most important people in her life. Ashley and I work together and I look forward to everyday that I get to walk into her classroom and see her smiling face. We both thought it would be fun to take some cute pictures of her boyfriend and her precious dog. I had heard about Marley for months and it was so fun finally getting to meet the sweet dog she had been talking about :) We had a really fun time taking pictures all over Ashley and Dustin's property. Of course the photo shoot would not have been complete with out my sweet friends supporting their favorite team :) They all looked great sporting their fun Duke attire! Go Team!

Live, Laugh, Love










OMG!!! These three words describe my amazing friend Lauren so perfectly. Lauren has been such an inspiration in my life. She always reminds me to play often and love as hard as you can. I love her passion for life and excitement in everything she does. I met Lauren my Freshman year of collage because I was placed on her Young Life team. I remember the first words Lauren said to me was that "I don't just want to be your teammate but your friend". I am so thankful for her friendship and the gift she has been in my life. Lauren also shares a joy and excitement for photography so we though it would be fun to do our very own photo shoot. I am so thankful for her and it was truly a blessing to capture moments in her life! Lauren, thank you for helping me come alive every time I spend time with you :)
