Crystal is one of the sweetest, sweetest brides I’ve had the joy of photographing. I could go on and on about the Lee and Crystal together, but Crystal holds a special place in my heart because she’s a mom of two, and she’s a pretty awesome mom at that! I’ve spotted her at other weddings dancing with her little boy, sneaking hugs with her little girl. Her own wedding day was no different than those days, as I watched her selflessly stop what she was doing to crouch down and talk to them, making sure they were having fun as well. It’s one thing to see a bride get herself ready on her wedding day, and it’s an entirely different thing to watch the amazing ninja skills it takes to get two small children wedding ready along with yourself all on your wedding day.

And what was the first thing Crystal did when we walked in the door to start getting ready photos? Asked us to sit down and eat brunch. Are you kidding me?! I mean, *I* need to be more like Crystal! I’m so, so happy that Lee and Crystal have found one another in this crazy world of life, and it makes my heart overflow to see this family’s puzzle pieces come together to complete their picture. Hooray for love!

Congratulations again, Crystal and Lee!
