Happy Thursday you guys!! We are moving SLOW this morning after an incredible FOURTEEN hour day with around 20 amazing #bossladies yesterday at our home for our What’s Next Getaway. Much more on that to come soon, but let’s just say we are SO inspired by these women and cannot wait to see where they go from here!!

But now on to what we have for you today….the gorgeous Yale engagement shoot of Kate & Emmanuel!! Ohhhh where do I even start with these two? First of all, in her first email to us, Kate told us that she has been following the blog since 2008 (!!!) and was SO excited to now finally have her turn writing as a #futurejmbride…how FUN is that?? And then when we were booked for their date for their San Antonio, Texas wedding, Emmanuel helped Kate scramble for two days to change everything so that they could still have us there…I mean talk about your SUPER ideal couple!!! We just love these two!

These guys are everything we look for in our couples….SO in love, beautiful classic style, a love of architecture (we’re going to do their photos in a mission in San Antonio and I am already dying over that!), so much positivity and gratitude in their hearts, kindness, generosity, thoughtfulness, and a LOVE of photography. Kate is actually a photographer herself  , and I think there is no greater honor than being asked to photograph a fellow photographer’s wedding. PLUS, these two even came down & spent the day with us on both their birthdays (they share the same birthday as well as their dating anniversary!) So you know we had to celebrate after the shoot with some cider donuts & butterscotch at one of our favorite restaurants, Heirloom! Kate & Emmanuel, there are no words….we just LOVE you both & we feel so honored to get to capture your love. It is heartfelt, beautiful, and it just POURS out of you both to everyone around you. We can’t WAIT for April!! Here are just a few of our faves from our day together!

SO much love!
