After such a long, cold, wet spring, we had our fingers crossed the weather would be good for Faith and Hunter's engagement session. And boy, did we ever get the perfect evening. It wasn't even windy and we got an awesome sunset. My favorite part of their session was that we ended on Hunter's family's land, right across from the couple's home. I love locations that having extra special meaning to my couples!

Jenny and Adam! Where do I even start? Jenny has been an honorary member of our family for nearly (or already?!) twenty years! She's traveled from her California home to spend time with our Nebraska family for birthdays and holidays and vacations over all of these years. What are the chances that she would meet a Nebraska boy out there on the West Coast? Well, she did! Not only is Adam from Nebraska, he has *central* Nebraska connections as well! I was so excited to be able to take their engagement photos while they were in the midwest for a visit. And I'm even more excited to head out to California this summer for their wedding!

In the middle of this endless winter, we managed to score a beautiful spring evening. Whitney and Heath have a contagious joy and love for each other. I don't think we stopped smiling and laughing for the whole session. It was super fun to explore some parts of Custer County and to also spend some time at Heath's parents' property. It is so special when couples select locations that are meaningful to them and their relationship!

When my husband and I got married January 1, 2010, I had been praying hard that it wouldn't snow the weekend of our wedding. Living in the middle of Nebraska, with family and friends traveling from all over the Midwest, it was a legitimate concern that the weather would prevent important people from being at our wedding. We had a blizzard the weekend before and a blizzard the weekend after, but New Years Day of 2010 was blessedly free of snow. However, I had a bit of an oversight with my request: I failed to ask that the weather would be snow-free AND warm. We ended up shivering through a day that never reached above 1 degree!
