Edy and myself began a fond penpal relationship via e-mail a few months ago as her and her family were moving from PA down to Durham, and we were so excited to have them as clients for their family and their wedding because Edy was charming and wonderful. And then we finally met them in person and they were EVEN BETTER because a.) Edy is as charming and wonderful in real life, and b.) Andy and Louie were wearing matching shirts with an embroidered repeating print featuring a shark eating a person whole, and we appreciated this greatly. Also their house is full of a myriad of David Bowie references and their dog is fluffy, orange, adorable, and named Nacho. What is not to love about this family?

Louie is 3 and moves very fast. Like, very fast. He was, by far, our fastest client ever and our autofocus was put to the test. He enjoys The Minions, bubbles, pretending Andy is a monster and hiding from him, and making Edy spin him around repeatedly in a way that was so fast that I’m surprised nobody threw up. He has the best hair. Edy is beautiful and calm and enjoys her people, chillaxing at Fullsteam, and can blow bubbles like a freaking champion when the bubble gun is on the fritz. She has never eaten a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (we are working on it with her). Andy can play guitar wonderfully, act like a very believable monster, and we were told that he has, in the past, danced for 46 hours straight. It was to raise money for charity, but we’re hoping to see this reenacted someday soon just for kicks. Nacho is fluffy, cute, and enjoys cheese. He took a brief nap with me on the couch and seemed to enjoy it. We are so happy to have these wonderful humans and Nacho as our clients, and we hope you enjoy them too! :)

It’s always the people who warn us repeatedly how awkward they’re going to be in front of the camera who are always the least awkward people in front of the camera. Elizabeth and Catherine are two pretty amazing people who are not at all awkward in front of the camera even though they insist that they are. They met playing rugby, and who now enjoy T-Rexes (is that the appropriate plural of T-Rex?) and narwhals and brewing their own beer. They listed off different types of beer they enjoy brewing and they all sounded complicated and involved, but also tasty (I don’t know what coffee oatmeal porter is but I like oatmeal). And considering that they’re going a hops plant in their garden, I think it’s safe to say that it’s serious past time. And you know what they say! Those who homebrew together stay together. If that’s not what they say, it really doesn’t matter, because Elizabeth and Catherine are getting married so now I’m making it a legit saying. This land that they’re on in this shoot has been in Elizabeth’s family since the 40s, and is full of gorgeous fields and also probably snakes but we didn’t see any of those (yay!). Elizabeth and Catherine are fantastic and hilarious people, and we’re super excited to have them as our wedding clients in December!

Courtney and Michelle are both really great. They like breakfast tacos and Durham. Courtney likes The Walking Dead and Michelle likes music but doesn’t like any shows on AMC despite the three of us spending 1.5 hours trying to convince her otherwise. They met all the way over in Texas and have moved to NC where the biggest complaint so far is that we, as a state, aren’t very good at breakfast tacos. We walked with them around Durham and got bit by many, many mosquitos and may or may not have lost 5 pounds in sweat, but it was worth it. Courtney and Michelle are planning a mountain wedding next year, and although we can’t be a part of it, we hope that they mail us a cinnamon bun from their cake (jk it would probably be kinda gross by the time it got to us).
