Here is another beautiful fall day with another amazing family. I love this old barn out in the country that is only 5 minutes from my house. This say was when i realized how amazing fall was here in Clarksville. Next to this barn was a couple of barns smoking tobacco. I am not sure how that really works but it smells amazing and I don't usually like the way pipes smell. Anyhow that smell combines with the crisp air, fall leaves blowing around and being out in the country was just about as amazing as it gets.

I just love this family. I really enjoy seeing large families and how all of the siblings interact with each other. It is amazing to see. I met up with the O'Connor family last week for some fall family pictures. The colors are so amazing. I am really enjoying Fall here in Clarksville.

I made the kids costumes this year. They designed them out on paper and then we went to fabric store and they picked out their own fabric. We have never done this before and although it was way harder than buying one, i am really glad we did it. The kids loved being a part of making their own costumes. I can't wait for Halloween so they can go out trick or treating in them!

We have been remodeling our kitchen since Labor Day. We actually started the design process about a month before that but Labor Day was when the demolition started. I ca say not having a kitchen for a month was really really hard. BUT I must admit I love my kitchen so much, it was totally worth it. So the first 2 are the BEFORE shots.

It was a beautiful day, from start to finish. I love this family and was glad to be able to share the day with them. I don't remember when I've seen a happier, more beautiful bride.

GT Regan says:

Many thanks. The next best thing to being there. I am guessing that the many back-lit shots were intended to give a touch of reality. There is so much to like, Brae's hair, for example, and her bracelet, and the way she was holding on to Ken's arm with her ring showing.
