Adele & Rob-June 6th

I never put much stock into the term "soulmate". The older I get the more it seemed that everyone has to work so hard at keeping their relationships healthy,exciting and fulfilled. As I still believe this is true, I met a couple a few weeks ago that tweaked my view on soul mates a bit. I still am not sure how I feel about the term "soulmate". However I know that if there are such a thing in this world Adele & Rob are truly soul mates.

Now to the details. Adele & Rob had their beautiful wedding & reception at Chantilly-DeMenil Mansion(http://www.demenil.org) in Benton Park.(side note to couples getting married: Fantastic place to get married. Great vendors,service,food,etc Keep this place in mind)

Erin-This one's for the girls...

When Erin emailed me about getting boudoir shots for her future husband done I literally said out loud "you go girl". I met Erin through a friend of a friend,Paul(shout out,holla at cha boy haha)(http://www.flickr.com/photos/coverkill)last year. The 1st time I met Greg & Erin I fell in love with their spirit. They both have a laugh that is instantly contagious. So months later when Erin booked her shoot I was stoked. I love boudoir shoots and I am going to tell you why. Not only are they an awesome gift that every husband to be would love,they are also for us.A gift to ourselves as women. The make us feel sexy. Beautiful. Powerful. Courageous. It's a message to the world that says I will show off my body and any flaws I that I feel I might have. I am beautiful and my husband loves all of me. Ok so I went on a little rant. I just wanted to share my view on these sessions,because it isn't just about taking naked photos. Back on track...

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holdin' back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world, this one's for the girls...

My son has a message for you..




What that is I am not quite sure...ok I know,but it sounds so much cuter when you can't understand him.
"wanna see me mad..in the picture..chica poo..."

Sometimes we like to sit around the house and make videos. He is such a ham.
Hopefully that gave you a midweek laugh.
