“After years of being heartbroken, weak and depressed, losing my first love for no reason, I️ felt hopeless. I found I️ needed God more then ever. I️ asked for someone who knew Him and was too seeking Him. I asked God for a certain someone and he delivered, I️ met Jeff unexpectedly.

We are that couple who met online. Jeff reached out to me first. After the daily conversations 2,000 miles apart for close to two months, I knew he was into me because he kept pursuing me each day and I️ just admired that about him. A little thing I️ asked for! I️ didn’t understand years ago, but I️ came to realize things happen for a reason, even if we don’t understand. Understand God has a bigger plan for us all! God is good!!

I️ fell in love one night while laughing and giggling with Jeff on his air mattress in the living room. He gave me his bed for the nights when I️ would visit after driving up 5 hours from Park City, Utah to his home in Boise, Idaho. Laying there in the living room with him that night with a dvd of a fireplace on his television was surprisingly soothing and felt just as good as the real thing! We had our first kiss that night, I️ knew I️ was feeling love!

We spent the holidays in Minneapolis and Wisconsin with Jeff’s family. On our drive back out west, we stopped in Bozeman, Montana. Jeff planned this ski trip to Big Sky, the following day after our long drive. He popped the question in the trees, in knee deep powder. He still managed to get out of one ski to get down on one knee, I was fortunate enough to catch the proposal on video! I️ was thrilled to say yes to my best friend! Who loves everything that I️ do, laughs with me, brightens my days, who gives me strength, encourages me to pursue my dreams, is who I️ can’t wait to marry in Stanley, Idaho this June!!”

I LOVED this session!!! It was my coldest one of the year but it was sooooo worth it! The love that they had for each other was beautiful and I felt so honored to capture it! Their summer Stanley Idaho wedding is going to be beautiful!!
