I met Kelsey about a year ago at our church. We sat at the same table for a Thursday night women’s Bible study and right after Kelsey introduced herself, I thought, “I like this girl and we’re gonna be friends someday.” Little by little we got to know each other better and today I am so happy to call her a friend. In the year that I’ve known Kelsey I have gotten to witness her and Ryan’s relationship from the very beginning. You see Kelsey + Ryan haven’t been together even a year yet. They were introduced through mutual friends at church and well… the rest is history. Some people might think they are crazy for jumping into marriage so soon, but I think, once you get to a certain age, you just know what you’re looking for and they have definitely found that in each other. They both say that as they slow danced in Ryan’s living room on their first date that they knew they were going to get married. It has been so awesome to see and be a part of their relationship from the very beginning. These two are just perfect together. They are both extremely creative and they balance each other out like no one else ever could.

Mike and I had such a great time hanging out with them for their city engagement session. Kelsey pushed me a little for this shoot. Most of our couples are looking for that tall grassy field look but Kelsey wanted a location that almost had no green and also gave a big city look and feel to the photos. It was so great getting to shoot in some new locations and I love the feel of their images.

Enjoy a few of our favorites! Kelsey + Ryan, we love you guys and can’t wait for your wedding!!
