It has been a little over 6 years. The moment Alyssa and Michael became an item. Yes, they were high school sweethearts. I know… It sounds so predictable. First, they were friends and knew friends and then before you know it, they became MORE than friends. Alyssa knew she was going to marry Michael then. At age 16. He must have swept her off her feet then and certainly 6 years later when he proposed on Christmas eve! In front of family and friends, he made her dreams come true : ) You can’t help but like Alyssa. She smiles constantly. Kind and sweet. A few reasons why Michael is smitten. They laugh, enjoy hot chocolate and relish each others company when they are together. And of course Christmas. Their day after.
We started off our session quite perfectly. Alyssa just had a beautiful makeover by Jemma M Gayheart and she looked amazing!
Alyssa dressed simply in a blue shirt-dress, belted and RED nail polish! Love the POP of color!
The sunset was a dream. For days, it had been raining cats and dogs… cold and miserable. This day, it cleared just for us.
Just look at how they look at each other …
Yes, this is blurry.. but it’s one of my favorites. It’s intentional, emotional and a bit private.

Alyssa and Michael: THANK YOU for believing in me and for this honor. I simply can’t wait for your upcoming celebration : )
