it took me about maybe 3 minutes after first meeting Shannon & Frank to know that
we were going to get along... aaaand have a
WHOLE lot of fun while doing so.
and let me tell you, that is
exactly what happened during their engagement session. what i didn't fully realize is that i should have capitalized the word F U N !!! with a couple of extra exclamation points because their adorable puggle, Butters & sweet great dane, Timujin joined in to make the day MOST complete. not to mention, fillllllllled with laughter. i just couldn't get enough of their crazyawesomeadorable expressions! just you wait -- you will see what i mean below.
Shannon & Frank have a realness & ease about them that is beyond inspiring. they light up around each other & when you are with them, be prepared to laugh. A LOT!

they were totally up for anything & really let me do my thang. {
thank you!} i also had the pleasure of doing Shannon's make-up before the sesh!
below are some of my top faves from the afternoon, however be sure to check out the slideshow at the end of this post for
