Happy Halloween!

Today marks the start of the Holiday season in our family (especially for Maggie... Maggie LOVES Halloween). We're up and at 'em bright and early this morning with a full day of business meetings, editing and emails, but tonight we're all about the fun Halloween brings. We're so excited Hurricane Sandy didn't spoil the fun for us and Trick or Treating can go on as scheduled. Maggie's neighborhood is known to be a great trick or treating spot, and kids get bused in from other towns. It's a big deal. We get together at her place, sit in the front yard next to the pumpkins and pass out ridiculous amounts of candy to the hundreds of kids who come through. Then we warm up with a double batch of homemade Shepherd's Pie and eat any candy that may be left over. Last year Sweet Cheeks was just a few months old and although he was in full costume (of course) he couldn't quite manage the trick or treating aspect of the festivities. This year however, we've been practicing ;) We're hoping he brings in quite a haul of treats for the adults... because all that candy will rot his teeth. We couldn't possibly allow him to eat it all!

Sweet Cheeks also got to pick out his own pumpkin this year! We got a few photos from that day and thought we'd share them with you.

Because he is his Mother's child... he couldn't decide. So we got them all ;)

He loved the straw maze!

Maggie also has a bit of an obsession with pumpkins and an even bigger obsession with carving them. Here are last year's (due to someone's Type A personality this year's aren't quite ready yet.)

Have a safe and happy Halloween!

a favorite, she's beautiful...

gah! so sweet!

some more favorites coming up...

Then we made them sit on a gravel road, and they were champs.

Jimmy! Look at those eyes...

The grounds at Woodlawn Farm are beautiful. Can't wait to shoot their wedding here next year!

these last shots ended up being our favorites!

Thank you Emily and Jimmy for letting us into your love story. We are so excited to be there as you exchange vows and celebrate with family. Let the countdown begin!

Emily and Jimmy :: Sneak Peek

To say we like this couple is an understatement. Let's put it this way... we want to be their friends. So many more photos from their fun engagement session to come later in the week. So many!

Oh hello perfect little doorway!

Jeez Eric... quit being so cute.

Two doors down, we find another adorable doorway. Thank you Georgetown!

Then it happened... we found an old, wooden, completely unsafe stairway to nowhere and we asked them to have a seat. Then we found the sun, and this happened:

Yes please

We just can't...

Seriously?

A possible favorite? We won't even try.

Do we really need to talk about how beautiful she is? No? Ok.

We're counting the days until we can do this again. Hurry up wedding day!

xoxo to you both!
