“I feel so much better now!” he exclaimed after he took a deep breathe in.  Brad embraced Elisabeth after the anticipation of seeing his soon to be bride filled him with excitement.  Brad and Elisabeth shared a long hug and she tried to keep the tears from coming.  It was their two year anniversary and also the day they would get to become husband and wife.

During her first year as a teacher, I was a student in Elisabeth’s class along with a cheerleader on her cheerleading team. I remember all of my friends and I thought she was so cute and stylish.  When she contacted me about her wedding photography, I was instantly excited as I knew she would be just as adorable as a bride.  And I was right… Elisabeth was absolutely beautiful on her wedding day especially when paired with her handsome groom.

Much like my first introduction to Elisabeth, Brad met her in a school. Quickly after meeting one another, it was obvious there was something between them. Elisabeth’s maid of honor put it best when she said, “before Elisabeth had even officially introduced Brad to her, I knew he was the one”.

If getting married didn’t provide enough excitement, Brad and Elisabeth also found out they are expecting.  When talking about her wedding & the baby news, Elisabeth joked to me, “it’s all my dreams coming true in one swift leap!”.  I couldn’t be happier for these two and know that they will make incredible parents when little baby Stoffers arrives. Congratulations Brad & Elisabeth, I had a wonderful time at your wedding and can’t wait to meet your little one!
