First of all, isn’t this location to DIE FOR!? Shooting here was a DREAM and LacieAnne & Michael were so excited about it! It was of course freezing and we had to be careful where we stepped or we’d totally biff it, but that didn’t even phase this couple! Michael was so excited to see Lacie in her dress and you could instantly tell by his reaction how much he loves her! For those of you that don’t know, Lacie is my best friend! We met in high school and she pushed her way into my life in the best way possible. We often joke that she had to convince me to be her friend because I am so completely different than she is and she definitely annoyed me at first! haha! But here we are, 9 years later and now she can’t get rid of me! She’s the one that encouraged me to go after my now husband even though she was always the 3rd wheel. She’s my best shopping buddy and she’s always stuck with me through hard times, showing me how to let go and have fun. She’s shown me how to love unconditionally and fully. She has the biggest heart and she’ll let you know it! She’s shown me how to be empathetic and to really be there for others and she’s done this all while struggling herself. I’ve seen her fall for many guys that have never been the right fit and I’ve seen her struggle with insecurities and feelings of inadequacy. And through it all she’s managed to come out with a positive attitude and a zeal for life and that is amazing! I’ve waited and waited for her to find the right guy always hoping that she would find someone that would give her his whole heart like she always gives hers to everyone around her. And she found that in Michael. She found a guy who loves her so much and who does everything he can to make her happy! And I am so grateful! They are so perfect for each other and I can’t wait for them to be married forever! I love you Lacie!
