Flashback...
This is me:
In these pictures I am almost two years old. I'm not sure if you can tell, but in the picture on the left I have candy in my mouth. That's because in the picture on the right I am crying. That's because I was absolutely miserable. (On a side note, I was stinkin' cute, wasn't I?)
I have never enjoyed getting my picture taken. This is a trend that clearly started early. An overwhelming majority of my childhood memories of me being grumpy or in a really bad mood involved family picture taking sessions. I'm not sure where my frustration with this came from but it's something that I continue to deal with even now.
Flash forward...
Nobody ever told me that part of getting married meant hours and hours of picture taking. This is probably common sense for most people. I guess I'll have to blame it on growing up in a house full of boys because I was blindsided.
Enough complaining...
Okay, that's enough of me being a diva. The truth is, it was a pretty nice day. I got the be with the girl I love... There was lots and lots of kissing... It was tough work, but our photographer Elisabeth Kate did a really great job, and I didn't want to pull my hair out the whole time.
Also, did I mention? ...I'm marrying an ANGEL!!
I'll stop babbling. The short of it is this: as much as I complain about picture-taking, it was a really good experience. I love Macy, and I think these pictures are great.
Enjoy:

Thanks for looking through these with us! We had a great time and were really happy with the pictures. Full disclosure -- I still hope there aren't too many 3-hour-plus photo shoots in my near future, but now I'm glad we've got these pictures to enjoy.

ReplyDeleteSuper cute!!! I love the ice cream shop pictures! Macy is beautiful. I have to say my favorite pics are the two of you at the top. I remember you coming to our house a lot when you were that age. You would wait at the front door --looking out the window-- watching for me to come home from school. Cute little boy!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I remember doing that! Oh man... Remember the good old days when my family lived in North Salt Lake and you guys were only just a few miles from us? Do you live in Rexburg now?
DeleteLove the photos. My favorite is the one of FOXY MACY, right below "marrying an angel". By the way, that is true. Congrats to both of you and welcome to the family Brad. We are really glad to have you.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anne! Did they tell you that I also have an aunt Anne Brown who lives in Mesa?
DeleteGreat pics!! Thanks for sharing them. Macy is beautiful Brad, good choice! Love her hair color, but I am kind of partial :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Burlene! I appreciate it :) Macy and I are having a blast together :)
DeleteI also am a big fan of her hair color... but I'm not in the club like you guys.
