Happy Friday! My girlfriends and I do this thing most Fridays called “Friday Feels” where we share 3 Fun Things goin’ on in our lives as a touch point to catch up, open up, and share some realness. So now, I think I’d like to implement that here on IG. Let’s go for it, shall we? .
.
1️⃣My 32nd bday is tomorrow and I’ll be celebrating with Weez, Reese, Cabo, my brother @will9runner (who flew in from out of town), and a whole bunch of crazy awesome ultra runners. 2️⃣Bigfoot 200 is this weekend where we’ll be manning an aid station, feeding sleep-deprived runners, pulling an all-nighter, and letting Reese play in dirt for two days. So stoked. 3️⃣ We’ll have a mix of family and/or friends stay with us in our guest room every single night for the next 10 days and I kind of love it. Our home is an open space for our people to come and go, which is just how I’d want it to be. .
.
👉🏼okay! Now it’s your turn. 3 things, go!

More tender hand kisses please and thank you. .

Who else stayed up and watched the season finale of the Bachelorette last night?! Let’s be real, I wasn’t stoked with the outcome but Becca’s gorgeous (and supposedly $18,000) Randi Rahm beaded white gown had me scheming up ideas for a beachy and elegant styled shoot... .

This caption has absolutely nothing to do with my photo of our last backpacking trip at Pamelia Lake, but hey, whatevs 🤫Anyone else out there training for the Marine Corp Marathon this year?! Weez and I are super jazzed that we both got in, along with our bro in law and @jenrose_russell. It’ll be a whole family affair! Yesterday the temps got above 90 midday, so we decided to hire a babysitter once Reese was asleep and we ran our long run, in the dark, at 8-10pm, with headlamps on. It was kind of awesome. I’m just so grateful for our health right now and our amazing sitters who can watch Reeser for us. It truly takes a village to raise a babe, and even though our closest family live in Michigan, we still feel supported out here in the great PNW. Life is good. .

Shooting two weddings in one week is a new and wonderful high for me, but it also meant that last night when I was done storing my camera gear and crawled into bed, I slept like a freaking log. I was ooooooout cold. I was so tired, I felt drunk during Reese’s 4am diaper change despite the contrary. This has been an extraordinary week, y’all. Congrats to Laura & Patrick and Cheri & Mike! Your weddings were absolutely epic! .

Dear Laura & Patrick, your wedding will go down as one of the most memorable ones for me. Not only because you were gorgeous and fun and hilarious to be around all day (you were). Not only because you were so generous with your love for your family and friends gathered around you (you were). Not only because you couldn’t keep your hands and eyes off one another (made my job a breeze). But because staying until 10pm to capture every last minute of your wedding - after having spent a full day of work at my day job - didn’t even feel like work. It’s weddings like yours that scream at me that I’m right where I’m suppose to be, doing what I’m meant to do. Have an awesome honeymoon, guys! .

Is it weird that I wish I could have eaten dinner at this imaginary wedding just because the menu looked so delish? .

Feeling a whole boat load of gratitude and excitement for a list of wonderful things to come right now. Life is about to get real crazy between work and personal life, and when I have more than 1 minute to draft up an IG caption, I’ll take a hot moment to get through some of them. But first, how handsome is this male model (cough cough, this is Weez), sporting one of @flowersbydiana ‘s gorgeous boutonnières? 🎉PS. If you haven’t checked out my IG story, take a quick peep! I shared a fun, little, exciting bit of news! .

I love meeting new word-of-mouth clients (And so grateful for the referrals!!). When a family or couple comes to me after a positive recommendation from another wonderful client of mine, it feels like we know we’re gonna get along great. It’s like we’re already set up for success and a good time. That’s how it felt when these two, their parents, and their kiddos met me at the park last week. Hugs and kiddo playtime ensued. Thank you for trusting me with such an important multigenerational moment! I had so much fun teaching your girl how to look through the viewfinder and push the shutter on my camera. Maybe she’ll want to become a photographer one day? 📷 .

Those, “hell yeah we’re MARRIED!” vibes. 💪🏻This bride has got to have one of the best smiles ever. @samazingfranky you’re beaming here! And now I’m beaming. Thank you for making my job the happiest. .

Holy smokes, friends, it has been crazy/wonderful/amazing busy over here at @erinfortinphoto as I’ve entered my busy wedding season. I’ve prioritized the client experience and delivering quality products (prints and albums never go out of style!) and somehow haven’t gotten on IG nearly enough to share some of the work that is the reason I’m so gratefully busy. 💍 It’s been one week since the @landersmarshallduo wedding, and I’m still swooning over the whole experience. As I’ve started post, there isn’t a single photo of Sam where she isn’t beaming with her contagious, big ol’ smile. But we’ll save some of those for another sneak peak 😍 In the meantime, this first look reaction though? Justin absolutely lost it. .
