Caitlin and I were destined to meet. During Ben’s first week of work at Microstrategy (five years ago), Caitlin was the girl who on-boarded my confused fresh-outta-college then boyfriend/now husband. He came home from work to announce, “I met a girl who is friends with Spencer Booth!” This may seem like a very weird thing to celebrate but I think it was comforting to have found a familiar friend at a brand new job, let alone his first real job.

This is a super special portrait session to me. I love this couple so much because Steph deserves happiness more than anyone I know. She was an incredible roommate in a crappy apartment when we had crappy teaching jobs. She also is the most giving person I have ever met; she LITERALLY gave a kidney to help a family member last year. Tim is one hell of a guy for making this girl the happiest I’ve ever seen her in our years of friendship.
