A Year For the Books, Fall Family Sessions, and a Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  I cannot believe that tonight we will head into the year 2016.  I have so much to be thankful for as I reflect upon what a year it has been.  2015 was a year for the books!  A BIG thank you to everyone who made this year extra amazing!  Here are my top ten highlights of 2015 (in chronological order):

 

  • Brandon and I bought our first house and we are finally feeling a little more settled in, have finally hung some things on the walls, and are continuing to work on never-ending house projects.  We are slowly but surely turning this house into a home.  I'm lucky that my hubby is handy!
  • Finally got the brother I have always wanted.  My sister got married on June 20, 2015 and now I am so happy to say that after 25 years of life I now have a brother (well two now, but I'll get to that) and a pretty cool one at that!  Congrats to KK & Cam!!

  • On July 11, 2015 I married my best friend.  We had a beautiful, small backyard wedding at my parent's house and it was perfect in every way.  Thank you to my friend Sharon Arnoldi for capturing such a special day!  I also gained another brother and sister (love you Jeff and Katie!) and two loving parents (Mitzie & Lou!).  A big thank you to my mom and dad for such an amazing wedding, letting us use your house as our incredible venue, and for all your love and support!
  • Honeymooned in Cancun, Mexico!  We stayed at an AMAZING resort where we had our own pool on our private "roof-top terrace" and divulged in fresh-made "Coco-Locos" on the beach everyday.
  • Emily Ann Photography grew immensely ... thank you to ALL of my amazing clients old and new.  Thank you to those who continually give my name out to friends ... I wouldn't be where I am today without YOU!  I am so lucky that I have clients who do all of my marketing and advertising for me.  And a BIG thank you to those who trusted me for the first time to capture your special moments whether it was an engagement, a wedding, a new born bundle of joy, or your family.  I am truly blessed!
  • Traveled to Ft. Lauderdale with Brandon, my brother and sister in law, and great friends where we spent time swimming in the ocean, walking on the beach, and enjoying the immense hospitality of a church that hosted a HIFR show.  That little yellow book has been a blessing in so many ways, and it was so much fun getting to see Brandon travel and play at this show.
  • Brandon and I welcomed our new fur-baby into our hearts.  If you haven't met Remington yet, here you go!  To see more pictures of this cute pup, click here.
