Welcome to our world, Dawson West! Our chunky, little, five chinned boy was born Monday, December 9 at 12:06pm. Weighing in at 8lbs 12oz and 21" long with an unexpectedly fast delivery, we're so thankful he's finally here ❤️ Colter is just adoring him and all his little "beebee" features.

"I'm not crying, you're crying!" Air it out, girl. Then finish your toast!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When your October destination wedding day doesn't go *exactly* as planned, what else is there for you to do but return the following year for an anniversary session?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Freak snow storms last year kept these two from saying "We do" at the special location they had picked out in Breckenridge. Needless to say, this October, while still quite unforgiving, gave us the most beautiful fall evening for Lakshmi and Eric's one year anniversary session.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Anniversary, Mr. & Mrs. Sullins! To this day, this sweet southern Texas wedding is one of the most memorable we've had the honor of being a part of. We hope your first year of marriage was perfect in every single way! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

My husband is the best. This whole time I was thinking our alpaca wool was still in garbage bags in the shed, he went ahead and sent them off to be made into beautiful, workable skeins for the holiday season! What a rewarding feeling to have yarn from the animals we love at our home ❤️ 🦙

Day #5 of useless, completely unhelpful, totally random facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We split meals at restaurants 99% of the time. This started when we were just dating and broke as a joke. We were working so hard to pay off our student loans, relieve ourselves of car payments, and pay for our wedding. We desperately wanted to be debt free before having kids and proudly accomplished just that in 2015. Cutting our date night bill by half just by sharing was one of those small decisions that laid the foundation for us in working towards becoming debt free before 30.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As you learned earlier this week, we don't eat lunch, so our appetites are never big enough to eat a full meal at a restaurant anyway. Our families and friends make fun of us for it, but it's just one of those things that's "us". ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Day #4 of useless, completely unhelpful, totally random facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We will rarely ever watch a movie more than once (except Christmas movies and Lonesome Dove...duh). Once we've seen it, we're good for life. However, reruns of our favorite TV shows, now that's another story. When Mike and I started dating he told me he too loved #theoffice and spewing off #michaelscott quotes at the drop of a hat. I later learned he loved it, just not as much as I did and that watching the entire series for the 8th time was enough.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Modern Family and Schitts Creek are two shows that are typically gracing our TV screen on the days we do just need a chill day of reruns.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Day #3 of useless, completely unhelpful, totally random facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We only eat 2 meals a day. I (Tay) LOVE breakfast. It's my favorite meal of the day and I'd rather sit at the table indulging on a big breakfast and coffee together than over dinner. Mike on the other hand, unintentionally fasts all day, so he lives for a big dinner. Lunch has never really been either of our style...it just completely derails the day. So apologies in advanced if you've come to our home between the hours of 11:00am-3:00pm and we've only had chips and salsa prepared. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Day #2 of useless, completely unhelpful, totally random facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We haven't got each other a Christmas gift since the first year we started dating in 2012. Since then, we've either been renovating a home, and gifted ourselves ceiling fans #adulting, or had wanderlust and planned a big fat fun trip for a gift. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now birthdays, that's another story. You get a week long party in our house for your birth-week! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We're still working on this years Christmas gift to each other, but seeing as how our mountain bikes were stolen in San Diego, it's probably going to revolve around some type of trip making up for lost time on our new mountain bikes and two boys in tow. Suggestions anyone? #crestedbutte maybe?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This week we're sharing random and useless facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us. Are you ready? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Day #1 of useless, completely unhelpful, totally random facts you'd never in a million years need to know about us:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before I (Tay) drink out of any cup, I have to rinse it out first. This comes from my growing up with my parents saying, "We don't need a dishwasher...we have six."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Learning how to do the dishes at the age of 5 with six kids in the family, you bet there was usually something leftover in our cups. Usually, this was soap. After a night of my brothers turn to do dishes, they had left Dawn dish soap at the bottom of one of the cups, and lucky me was the one who gulped it down with fervor trying to quench my thirst. Since then, you'll find my untrusting self rinsing out every cup I use for the rest of my life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

My friends and their families are so beautiful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we moved to this little valley, I cried...a lot. We didn't know anyone and had just left friends and a home we loved just outside of Denver. I couldn't drive past our old exit without crying...every single time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, three years later, we've made some of the most genuine and fulfilling friendships either one of us has had in our adult life. Let's face it, making friends outside of school/college is a challenge. Throw in working from home and you're pretty limited to your number of interactions to build meaningful friendships. So, when I started asking gals from yoga class and fellow photographers to get coffee, some of our most precious friendships started to grow and lead to other incredible friends. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm so thankful for this place we call home. And for the Melrose family. Love you guys!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Who else has been on the infamous Bear Tooth Pass in Montana? Bonus points if it was on a motorcycle!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I actually accidentally took this shot while waiting for a guy to propose to his girlfriend. Trying to be cool, I just started snapping away pretending like I was taking shots of the landscape, and when I saw the back of the camera after this shot, I was STOKED. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Needless to say, we printed this baby on metal and hung it in our office real fast.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When one of my photographer girlfriends texted me to let me know this shot looked like something out of #vanityfair, I got all kinds of giddy inside. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes there's something there that we don't see right off the bat. That was true for this shot. We walked in and starred at the space, trying to figure out what was missing. Turns out it was the whole bridal party we needed to make this shot what it was meant to be. A challenge and collaboration with our couples is what inspires and ignites us!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In our last post I shared that we wanted to start having more FUN with our social media accounts in 2019, and it's a goal we've upheld ALL YEAR LONG. How often does that happen? Amiright?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Last month I shared that Mike and I had been asking each other though provoking questions as a means to have more meaningful and intentional conversation.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's one of the questions: "Can you sum up your life right now in a 6 word sentence?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's what we came up with:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I forget what Mondays feel like."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I do what I want, fool!"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I forget what weekends feel like."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Where are we going to next?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What about you? Sum up your life in a 6 word sentence and share below!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

WHOA...has it really been 9 days since we last posted?!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This year my goal was to have more FUN with our social media. You know, show up with no makeup on, share photos we wanted to share without fear that it didn't fit the "grid" of 9, share real moments with real emotion. And, share more intimate behind the scenes of our life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's been challenging to get out of the mindset of sharing the "perfect" shot, of us and our couples. I was overwhelmed this time last year trying to figure out the ol' Gram and how we could best share who we were on a platform that was literally made for us. Photos and stories...that's literally a platform made for photographers. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So why not have fun with it?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Result of previous #selfiesunday post <3 Veil shots are my favorite, especially when the conversation leading up to it goes like this:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Me: "Now nuzzle into Camerons chest and get warm!"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Kelsey: "Aw, this is my favorite place to be."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We love learning little quirks about our couples, like their favorite place to cuddle, the cute way they only hold three fingers when they hold hands, or finding out they play the games we had them play at their photo shoot to end an argument (<----true story). We learned very early on that Kelsey and Cameron are both active military serving our country and making their marriage work long distance. Their story is one for the books and we were just honored to be the ones to tell their story through photos for them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Raise your hand if you too can't believe 2019 is coming to an end! We've been invited into the lives of so many wonderful people and know 2020 is going to be EPIC.

Just barely making it for #selfiesunday! We shot our last wedding before baby Fish arrives last night and what a perfect day it was. Kelsey and Cameron traveled all the way to my favorite mountain, Mount Princeton, from Alaska to celebrate their marriage with their beloved and closest family and friends. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
From here until December, you can find me getting my prenatal massages on, pedicures, acupuncture, and spending time with my boys until this super active little guy arrives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
