victor & abigail. married. again.

I guess her brother said it best during his speech, "Victor and Abigail, welcome to the two wedding club!" Apparently the people in their family have a tendancy to have two weddings for one reason or another, and Abigail, so as not to dissappoint, had her second wedding to her husband Victor on Saturday.

Hopefully I will get this story correct...Abigail met this handsome man while serving in the Peace Corps. Victor is from Moldova and just like everyone says, he has the most alluring accent and you hope he will just talk and talk just so you can listen to him. After what I'm sure didn't take long for these two to fall deeply in love, they were married in his home country. While there, they sealed the union with 2 gold bands. Fast forward to Saturday where Abigail was once again preparing to share in another beautiful wedding with her Victor. Abigail's mother took the gold bands to a jewler and had them added onto new bands (pictured below) and I just think that is such a neat touch.

It's completely obvious how much he adores her by the way he smiles when he looks at her. She in return throws those big blue eyes back at him and you can almost taste the love that they share. It's intoxicating and when you share a love this deep, any girl deserves to have another wedding day. So Abigail and Victor, I hope your second wedding was even more special than your first. You both are just too cute and I am so so glad we met way back in September of last year Abigail. I just knew this would be a wedding to remember and you made our pictures breathtaking. You guys are gorgeous and I hope you enjoy a life full of love and happiness! As your brother Nate said, and I agree, welcome to the Two Wedding Club.

**special thanks to Susan and John of the Indiana State Museum http://www.in.gov/ism/ for a beautiful reception. Your service was outstanding and I was impressed with your staff and how nice and courteous you all were. I would highly reccommend this venue if you are a bride planning a fabulous wedding!

coming soon: victor & abigail.

This was one of my FAVORITE weddings ever and I have tons to share with you but I need another day or two to make them perfect! Here is one of my all time favorite pictures ever, taken during the ceremony. Are these two perfectly in love or what!? ...more on the way...

ella & bryson.

Kara and I finally made plans to photograph her daughter Ella and her brand new baby boy Bryson. She and I go way back and we had kind of lost touch through the years, so I was more than thrilled when she contacted me to take pictures. When they pulled up and I finally got over the fact that she is married with two kids, she opened the backseat to the car and there sat the biggest blue eyes and the most exciting smile on Ella, and next to her in a car seat was Bryson. He was just to much in his little itty bitty white polo and khakis, and Ella, well, she was completely too much fun! She has this voice that I just wish I could bottle up and sell! And when she would say my name, it wasn't Darci, it was something like, Dawtdsee, but she was SOOO cute! It was too funny! I wanted to squeeze her when she laughed and she was just too fun to play with and photograph. I loved when she discovered the dirt and her mom let her take her shoes off. She ran around and jumped and she was so happy to be running along the ground barefoot! Man it's gotta be great to be a kid! So we ended with one of my super huge lolipops and Ella was so dainty with it and I'm not sure there was any on her face at all. That was fun until she discovered blueberries and attacked those while Kara and I talked and little Bryson slept.

Oh Kara where do I start! It was so good to wander around with you and your little ones. It's nice to reconnect with old friends and hopefully we'll get to do it all over again soon. These two are way to cute and I'm simply in love with some of their expressions! I want hair like Ella's! She's darling! Hope you love these as much as I do!
