Rainy Suday's

Rainy Sunday’s

Yesterday around 9:30 a.m. I received an email from Stephanie (one of my Brides-to-be that had booked me earlier).

“Good morning. I see it’s raining, and will be the majority of the day. Are we shooting outside or indoors?”

I let her know that we will be shooting in both, and I asked her if she was wearing a long dress.  Wouldn’t want the wet weather to mess up her dress, right?!

She let me know that she would be wearing a long dress.  Uh Oh…

So, I asked her would she like to reschedule….

“No, if we are still able to get a good shoot, we can keep it!” She replied.

“I believe we can” I stated.

So, we decided to do the shoot and meet up at 3p.m. on a rainy Sunday afternoon.

Ponce City Market here we come!!!

I packed up all my equipment, my kids and my husband (aka my uber driver) and we hit the road.

When we got to Ponce City Market, we decided to get some hot cocoa and coffee at The Dancing Goat, while we waited. Let me tell you, if you have never been there before, you have to try it. It is a cute, cool coffee shop.

So, 3:00 hit and Stephanie and Bobby are here at Ponce City Market… and what decides to happen? Here comes the rain.. (it was more like a mist). But it decided it wasn’t going anywhere…but Stephanie decided that she wasn’t going anywhere either!

So what did we do? We captured a beautiful Save the Date session.

I really enjoyed working with this beautiful couple.  They remind me of why I do this in the first place!

Not only did I get to meet two new people, I got to see two people that love each other and want to spend the rest of their life together….to become one!

I also got to introduce my two new friends to a new date spot. They fell in love with Ponce City Market just like I did.

Thank You to Stephanie and Bobby for trusting me with their vision!

“ You never know what can happen on a Rainy Sunday afternoon, put on your rain boots and go outside and play!”

Then spend my life with you.

When you feel a hand rest upon your Mum,

And you hear the sound of a low deep hum,

I hope you know, and to yourself think gladly,

This touch and voice is of my Daddy.

It's still early days but you've got my heart,

And I know that this is just the start,

Because from now on and forevermore,

I will love you, cherish you, and always adore.

Every day my love for you grows, 

And I hope to you this already shows, 

I will do everything I can to make you see,

That you will always mean the world to me.

And from today until the day you're born,

I swear to keep the oath I've sworn,

You and Mum will always be cared for,

Protection is the oath I swore.

Not just to protect, but to always love,

Because you were a gift from above,

I never thought I would feel this way, 

But now I can't wait until next May.

For when the day that you arrive,

I would have never before felt so alive,

You'll bring a tear straight to my eye,

And you'll look at me and you'll know why.

Because you will be the greatest gift,

And my heart and soul you will uplift,

That feeling there will be hard to beat,

From that moment on my life's complete.

But for now you sleep inside your Mummy,

Keep warm and snug inside her tummy, 

And I'll look forward to the day you're here,

To take my heart when you appear.

So when you feel that hand on Mum,

And hear the sound of my low deep hum,

I know you'll know and for that I'm glad,

That here with Mum is your very proud Dad.

Michelle & Jason

You taught me how beautiful life is,
Everything from your words, your touch, your kiss.

You gave me hope, you gave me love,
And I know you were sent from heaven above.

The way you showed me the person I could be,
It's something you, and only you, would see.

You were always different and unique,
But I never guessed it was me you would seek.

How someone like me would end up with someone like you,
I honestly don't believe it, it cannot be true.

But it is, and I know every day,
That I have YOU, and it's needless to say

You've made my life beautiful and taught me how to live.

To show you how much I'm grateful, anything I'd give.

So thank you for coming into my life.
In doing so you've taken away the sorrow and strife.

You put a smile on my face and a skip to my stride
And I know you'll always be there by my side.

My love for you

My eyes have seen your love for me.

My heart has felt with empathy.

The tender touch that you bring

Makes my heart want to sing,

So now, my love, may you know...
How you touch my very soul.
