Ever since Joe and I have been married, we’ve found it super important to have great ‘couples’ friends. Now this is easier said than done. There are so many things that have to go right.

The girls have to like hanging out together. The guys have to like hang out together. AND the couples have to like hanging out together as couples. I’m no mathematician but that looks like a lengthy equation! Thankfully for us, all three things went right.

Charity + I met awhile back and we hit it off right away. She was one of the most positive, genuine, sweet girls I had ever met. Our love for photography and faith in the Lord made for an instant connection.

Not long after, she and her husband Andy started attending our church and we thought it would fun to go on a double date.

Our first ‘date’ went great, and we knew that these two were going to be a part of our lives!

Since then they have joined our small group and our relationship has deepened. We love having them as friends :).

I absolutely LOVE photographing my friends; especially when they are as ADORBS as these two. I couldn’t wait to finally get them in front of my camera.

C+A, I hope that these photos bless you two even a fraction of the way that you guys have blessed us :) xo

Before going full time with her photography business, Charity worked at Starbucks so coffee has been a big part of her life. The Brosenbrus Coffee shop was a great place to start our shoot!

After the coffee shop, these two got all dolled up and we headed to the desert. Aren’t they GORGE?!

Sweet, sweet Charity…

Love this shot Joe took. It just looks…COOL, right?!

Charity busted our her camera for a few shots at the end. Yes, I realize I am a big person for being friends with a Nikon user ;) I kid. I kid! You know I love you Charity!

She couldn’t be any cuter!
