Photo Anticipation

Ladies and gentlemen...we are exactly 8 days out from our First Anniversary.  WHAT??  Where in the world has the time gone?  This year has flown!

Because I must document every moment of life possible, I was planning on having Anniversary pictures made, but our wedding photographer moved to Boston shortly after our wedding.  So, I contacted a friend in our bible study who does great photography, but she was booked up until the end of October.  Then I contacted a lady in the Clayton area, that I've heard great things about and seen some cute shots from...and she wasn't available when we needed her either.  I was talking about it at work and my supervisor reminded me that she takes photos, so we're going with her!  And I can't wait!  I'm seriously consumed with Pinterest, finding the cute poses that we must have!  And daily, I'm obsessing over what to wear, etc.

My hope is to have a picture of us taken in the same spot every year, so we can see how much we've changed throughout the years.  Obviously, if we move, we'll have to find a new "spot" because I don't think we'll be traveling back to Raleigh every year on our Anniversary to make that happen, but for now, I want a designated "spot".  I suggested somewhere out at Yates Mill Pond, but I had never been out there, so last weekend, Kevin and I drove the 3 miles over and got out for a little "scouting" adventure.  It was fun just to walk around and talk about the poses we could do in the different locations around Yates Mill.  We even practiced a few (because I'm a nut)!

The anticipation is on!  I can't wait until next weekend so we can have our pictures made!

Here are a few of the shots we MUST get!















I'm praying for good weather and that the leaves have started changing!  I just want the photos to feel like fall!

Also this is a reminder that you have 8 days to get us a wedding gift if you forgot, haha.  TOTALLY KIDDING!  But it was the perfect segway to show you these sweet letters that our friend Dustin made for us.  He constructed these from scratch out of metal and welded them together.  An "E" for Ewing and a "B" for Brosseau or together "BE" or "EB".
I like "EB" because it makes me think of the tides, ebbing and flowing and how with work trips that take Kevin away from me, we always come back together.  I love it!  Thank you Dustin!
