It had been a long time.

Natalie and TJ have been dating for four years, and so they’re really ready to finally be married! The Barn at Shady Lane is calling their name in October, and I’m thrilled for these two!

We traipsed through Botanical Gardens, danced across a downtown parking deck and walked Murphy the dog in Railroad Park. Murphy didn’t last long, but his parents did! We had the best light, and it’s really exciting being at Botanical because you can tell that the gardens are about to burst with life. Thankfully we found the most beautiful daffodil bed and – very carefully, mind you – stepped through them to snuggle up in the cascading bank.
