Last week, both Devon and I had birthdays. But we're not here to talk about boring birthdays (but they actually weren't boring at all!). We're here to talk about one of the best non-birthday gifts I received (2 days before my birthday): a little thumb drive full of our wedding photos!
I'll be honest, I didn't really know what to expect, so I was nervous. What if I didn't love any of them? Then what? All those memories of our perfect-for-us wedding would be lost, forever. Well, I opened up the files and my jaw hit the floor. I may be
extremely slightly biased, but I'm convinced that our photographer, Heather of
Heather Gibbons Photography (and an old childhood friend of mine), created a masterpiece. No really, this is her best work. If I had a metal, or a trophy, or lots of money to throw a big fat tip at her, I'd do it. Because these, my friends, have stolen my heart forever.
So, if you haven't already seen enough of these posted all over Facebook (because I really can't control myself and I like to pretend that people care as much as I do), then here, for your viewing pleasure, are some of my favorites:
