Love Birds

spring fling

By March 26, 2012 No Comments

Flowers are blooming, the birds are chirping, and a there’s a warm breeze blowing… wait, are we sure this is March?  It is!  And I’m loving everything about this early spring – or should we say summer?  Our unseasonably warm weather makes me more excited than ever for this year’s photography season.  After my winter break from shooting, it felt so great to get out there and spend an afternoon with these two love birds.  At about 65 degrees, it was a “cool” weekend day compared to the 80’s that we started getting used to last week.  Even still, it was so wonderful to see the trees budding with little green leaves, almost fluorescent against the dark landscape that is just starting to come to life.  Whitney and Mike were so great together, and I think you can tell by their photos that they are head over heels for each other!  Planning an end-of-the-summer wedding for this year, these two made it easy to capture their love and how much fun they have together…

My camera nearly broke when I had to take a picture of Mike in his Bear’s jersey 🙂 … but I’m thankful that he has Whitney now to help set him straight!

On another note, we continue to be amazed every day by our sweet little girl.  Seven weeks old to the day, she has also been enjoying this amazing weather.  It was so neat taking her to the park this past week.  We are lucky enough to have a park less than a block from our house where we can play ball with Mya (our other baby).  We brought Ensley along and just laid her on a blanket and let her take in all of the new sounds and things to look at.  I never dreamed that I’d be able to take her for walks in her stroller during the middle of March!  We can tell that she’s learning new things every single day, and we absolutely love the fact that it seems like her favorite thing to do lately is smile.  Mitch and I were even lucky enough to hear her giggle in her sleep last week, a preview I’m sure, of many more giggles that we have to look forward to!
