Jim and Missy - Just Because

When Missy told me that she was going to be in town for a convention and wanted to do a shoot of her and her husband with me, I jumped out of my chair! I was so excited that I would finally meet a friend that I had known online for over three years. When I met Jim and saw them together I did the happy dance. These two are not only in love, but love to be with each other and genuinely enjoy each others company. I know that sounds like a given for two people in love but to be able to capture it is special. It was so nice to finally meet you and thank you both for sharing that time with me! Here are some of my favorites. They said they love black and whites and so do I! *insert happy face here* the blog is doing something crazy when I type my happy faces lately. Jim plays the guitar and Im so glad they brought it!

Kien Trinh: You did an awesome job!
Missy: OMG Araxi I am simply overwhelmed with the beauty of your work. I had really high hopes for our session and I didn't even know it would be possible to exceed my hopes. Before the shoot I promised myself to stay positive and not beat myself up for looking overweight....you totally made that easy by producing such amazing photos. I can't thank you enough for capturing the essence of our relationship...that 10th photo is totally us!! I also love the one with Jim and his guitar and the 9th one down with us sitting on the ledge. OMG, I am going to go crazy when I see the entire shoot. I am not only stunned by your amazing photography I am just so happy to finally get to meet you in person and share a good time...you have such a warm and friendly personality. I sure hope we get to do it again next year.
