Kylee - I like this story =)

ezzy - You guys inspire me so much; not just in your AMAZING photography, but in the way you live and love. Thanks so much for sharing!

Jewel - that's a gooood husband right there. my hubby just made me a beautiful wood coffee table. . . a big ol' table and a bed is on the list. : ) I love that hospitality is priority in your life. it shows a lot about a person when they desire a larger table rather than other expensive crap.

Dev - I love it! The color is so beautiful. Can't wait to see it/be fed in person! :)

Jeremy Lawson - I love it...but what I think they will remember most is that jacket. And the great photos of their dad. hahaha

rah rah - YOU DID NOT INCLUDE A SINGLE PHOTOBOMB!?!?!?!?!?! those are what make the table perfection.

elsa - This is so incredibly moving.

amy - this is why we go on after darkness, this is why we try harder, believe in each other...people like this. the purity of this love is astounding and palpable. their story was captured with such care and grace, as to do it justice. huge respect and thanks for being who you are and for sharing it with the world.

Kirsty NI - I never thought at the age of 22 and a few months away from getting married that I would be told that I won't be able to have the family I always wanted, and to have babies with the love of my life, to me their was no point, a failure to everyone including myself, the phrase 'everything happens for a reason' truly is a religion of its own, ur video has ignited a light of hope deep within my heart, I will be a mother one day, my baby could be out their now, we just have to find each other, Thank you for your story
