Melissa + Ryan….nobody puts baby in the corner.
Melissa and Ryan were our wonderful “Day After” models… and we had a BLAST!!!! They were SO awesome and up for anything we threw at them! These guys ROCK!!!! They are also the very proud parents of Austen. If you missed his birthday post, be sure to check it out, he is SUCH a cutie.
You know who else rocks? TIFFANY because once again she did an awesome job on the hair and makeup for Melissa! She is working on getting a myspace set up for her biz… I’ll let you know as soon as it’s up! :) Until then, you can still contact her via email at: tiffanykremers@yahoo.com.
P.S. the beaded necklace with the peace sign pendant was from Small Town Girls, of course! ;)
For those of you who don’t know a Day After session is a shoot done normally the day after the wedding.. it’s different than a Trash the Dress because your concentrating more on the couple and their love rather than the dress and the bride. It can be done at anytime though! I actually have one lined up for later this month with a couple who got married 5 years ago! It’s an awesome idea for your anniversary.. or for no good reason at all other than wanting to slip back into that dress and get some awesome, romantic pictures with your hubby! It’s a laid back, no stress, FUN session and I love them! If you want to get one set up, please let me know ASAP.. the calender is steadily booking up. I have a few weekday appointments open in July… but I’m booked till then!!
OH and if your wondering about the post title…. during the shoot Jess was explaining a pose to Melissa and Melissa grabs Ryan and said.. “OHHH, like in Dirty Dancing….NOOOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER!!!” I laughed. Hard. :) Oh an after that she said.. “OKAY, now for the LIFT!” :) We love you Melissa… because you are awesome!!! :)
I had 2 MAJOR favorites of the day.. this was one of them…
…and this was the other. LOOOOOVE this one. :) I’m thinking big print in my office!! :)
I’ve had a lot of people commenting on how I use bathtubs a lot.. so why fight it… embrace it! :)
She IS still wearing her dress.. this wasn’t intentional but shes just so short! ;)
So Jess thought it would be cute for Ryan to pose like Austen did in his b-day shoot! :) Thanks Ryan for playing along.
This is Jessica’s booboo.. I thought her foot was going to fall off. Apparently they don’t have berry vines in Louisiana. ;)
AND HERE are her dirty feet… Oh yes.. I DID post this on the blog. :)
But apparently her GASH in her foot wasn’t as bad as she thought because she was soon back to dancing a jig in my pasture. :)
