If you read Ralphie's blog, you might not know she makes the best caramel popcorn I've ever tasted, or that her girls rush to the door when we come over or that we have gone to her house for the past few weeks, pulled all the cushions off the couch and watched So You Think You Can Dance on the floor of their office. You might not know that, but if you read Ralphie's blog, you do know she's an incredible photographer.
This weekend is Bart and my fourth wedding anniversary. It's also the weekend we move away from Texas. In light of those two momentous occasions, we asked Ralphie to take some pictures of us, something to remember us, her, and Texas by.
I'm not sure exactly what I had in mind when I asked her, but her photographs turned out even better than I could have hoped.
You can see them here on Ralphie's blog.
(Also, I might feel bad about saying, "Go look at these pictures of how lovely we are" except that I'm currently sitting in my pajamas, with my hair a post-gym sweaty mess, no makeup, and glasses on. I'll take what loveliness I can right now).

ReplyDeleteWonderful photos!!
ReplyDeleteI just looked and they are so lovely! I love the one of your shoes :)
ReplyDeleteWow she is really good! i wish she was local, I'd have her come take some of us!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness -- seriously, those are AMAZING photos. She is so incredibly gifted!
ReplyDeleteSo fun. I personally LOVE that almost all of them involve a book (but the principles of arithmetic? I don't presume you're actually reading that one...)
ReplyDeleteLooking at them made me remember that once upon a time I knew Bart fairly well and that I have never actually met you. Funny world! I do hope we meet up on the east coast someday :). I'm planning on it, actually.
Aaaa! Definitely my favorite photos of you two ever. I want to frame a couple for our house...also I want Ralphie to move to Denver.
ReplyDeleteSwoon!! I love them!!
ReplyDeletexox
Gorgeous pictures! I can't decide which one I like best, though I really, really like the one of you two gazing in each other's eyes on the blanket. That's just too cute!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Happy 4th anniversary!!
ReplyDeleteI'm having a "very pregnant" day, so now I'm crying because you're moving away from your friend. Great. Just great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea as an anniversary present/goodbye to Texas momento! Nice work, Ralphie!
ReplyDeleteThose are SO great! I am jealous. Happy Anniversary.
ReplyDeleteYou guys look great! And so cute!
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! Too bad she lives in Texas! She's an amazing photographer. I thought the pictures were totally you!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Bart is one lucky, no-doubt undeserving, guy! You look amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos!! Love them all - but think my favorite is the last one :)
ReplyDeleteThe photos are AMAZING! You guys both look great and how adorable and sweet. Plus, your eye makeup is awesome.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary! You both look so young - and happy and beautiful/handsome. Wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, those are perfect! They create such a lovely feeling...I totally want to go one a picnic right now and read a book...nevermind the fact it's 11pm here. :)
ReplyDeleteLove them...although maybe Bart needed to bring a calculator to hold while you held all the books??
ReplyDeleteAlso, in those close ups of you reading the book and then looking at the camera, I have no doubt in my mind that you were actually reading the book :)
ps..new shirt?? It's pretty!
ReplyDeletethose were superdeduper cute. Yup, that is right.
ReplyDeleteLove them. Love the Texas lighting. Even though I have never been there, I can just tell. Very smart of you to have asked Ralphie to take them. Ok, back to my own (your) book.
ReplyDeleteYou both look HOT!.....I just love the book idea-lovely.
ReplyDeletegorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the one where you are laying on the blanket and looking at each other and smiling. You both look so happy. Cute! I agree, hard to pick one.
ReplyDeleteLove. them.
ReplyDeleteAnd your shirt--seriously cute!

ReplyDeletethey are so beautiful! i love that you did this, couple pictures are the very best. i am obsessed with the props and the location, they fit you both so perfectly. :)
