They wrote sweet love notes to read to each other during our session. We walked through the Towpath Trail on the most beautiful night of the season. And now I’m ready to watch them get married so soon.

Man, this winter’s been brutal. I’m the first one to appreciate a good snow storm, and I really don’t even mind getting bundled up to go outside. I generally really enjoy the winter time. But by the time March rolls around, I just want to be outside again. So on this particular twelve degree day, we…

Man, it feels good to be back. The new year is one of the things I live for. My heart loves change, and January 1st is just what it needed. The last 4 months or so of every year get a little crazy for me, but never have I experienced busy like the end of…
“Together, we’ll shine way too bright. I see you squint those eyes. Back in school I should’ve tried. When life is failing, you’re my cheat sheet.” Yeah, you’re my cheat sheet.
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that although I’ve become proficient at it, I can’t stand small talk. Four years sitting at a receptionist’s desk has taught me to how to talk about current events and weather patterns like a pro. I don’t know if it’s the fact that life seems to be moving at…

Or is the classic “receptionist falls in love with the sarcastic paper salesman” scenario more your speed? Does it twist and turn,…
We had just a few minutes to spend together this week. I think it’s safe to say we made the most of it.

Sometimes I like to trace the timeline of my life to map out all the things that brought me to this beautiful life I’m living now. It’s amazing to me how one decision can change the course of your life. Moving to Philadelphia was my one decision. When I graduated high school, I packed my bags…

This morning, I came down the stairs and rounded the corner to make some breakfast. But when my feet landed on the floor and my eyes towards the kitchen, I saw Stephen standing at the stove making his usual breakfast of bacon and eggs. Instead of joining him right away, I just stood from a…
It was the perfect summer night on the lake. We played some Copeland, walked through the perfectly unkept grass, and smelled the water’s air. In the woods & on the beach. Matthew & Amanda.
