{Day 260}

As promised here are pictures of my bridesmaid dress from my dear friend Christa’s wedding!  Sadly there isn’t a picture of the back of the dress.  It had a cute little cutout, with a closure of three pink buttons, that added just the perfect touch to the dress.  These pictures were taken by the amazing Nate Perkes and his lovely wife Luisa.  They were a delightful couple and they truly captured the day so well.  At first you may just think of them as wedding photographers but spend 2 seconds looking at their images and you realize that they are perfect storytellers.  It was quite enjoyable having them around and I would recommend them in a heart beat!

Check out their facebook page and their blog!  They know how to bottle up moments with such beauty.  So much so that I long to step into their pictures with that perfect lighting that they always catch and just live there.
