kristy & karl

happy day friends.

i say we make this day even better with some more loveFILLed images.
please meet the ever-so lovely Kristy & Karl.

you may remember Kristy from her recent
make-up trial post, too. however, now it's time for you to meet her other half.

... her main squeeze, Karl.
Karl & i actually went to high school together, so needless to say when i got the phone call from Kristy about documenting their wedding day, i was super excited to hear the awesome news & be reconnected.
best part?! from our countless conversations on the phone (due to Kristy & Karl living in Florida), i feel like i have known Kristy for years. pretty awesome.
....as are Kristy & Karl! their love is so sweet & playful.

below are some of my top favorite images from their engagement session, however be sure to check out the slideshow at the end of this post for even more photographs!

tiz & andy

remember these two cuties from their
sneak peek? well it is finally time to share our afternoon of fun with you all!
we ventured into good ol' Eastern Market in the "D" for an afternoon of smiles, laughter and love.
duh! of course.
i first met Tiz and Andy at
Abbie & Will's wedding and to be perfectly honest, there was an instant comfort that felt almost as if i had known them both for years.
needless to say, i was absolutely
ecstatic when
Abbie & Will gifted them an engagement session.
talk about ah!mazing friends & downright AMAZINGNESS!!!
Tiz & Andy are outgoing & full of life. they have a love & connection that they are not shy to share & which i
absolutely love about them! it is beautiful to be around & most definitely, to capture through my lens.
on top of all this, i also had the great pleasure to do Tiz's make-up for their session.

below are some of my top faves from our afternoon, however
be sure to also check out the slideshow at the end of this post for even more photographs!
Tiz & Andy,,, you guys seriously ROCK! thank you for totally trusting me to do my thing & produce art through your tremendous LOVE. i hope these images put a smile to your heart as they have for me.

with SO much heart & gratitude, always,

ksen
