Stories. That's what I love about my job - the stories my clients share with me. From the anticipation of a new baby to the excitement of choosing a college, I love listening to memories and milestones.
Kathleen and Rick's story is 25+ years in the making! After finding my name on the back of a birth announcement, Kathleen called me wanting to capture her 25th wedding anniversary. As I listened to her talk that afternoon about why and where she wanted to capture this milestone, her energy and excitement was contagious! I couldn't wait to meet the two of them!!
On a beautiful October morning, we met on John Deere Commons and talked and giggled our way through their session. The highlight of the morning was a visit to Dead Poet's Espresso. This little coffee shop (downtown Moline) is a place these two frequent on a regular basis. The owners were wonderful and allowed me to photograph Kathleen and Rick.
Since then, Kathleen and Rick have invited me into their lives numerous times. I've photographed her grandsons, her daughter and husband, and a wedding.
Kathleen, thank you so much for inviting me into your life. And yes, we do need to meet for coffee soon.
