Jessica + Joel // riverside + rooftop maternity shoot

I’m not sure that I’ve met a couple as sincere as Jessica + joel are.

My husband and I have had the distinct joy of being in a small group with J + J for the last few years, and it has been such an honor to build a friendship with them during this season of life. Our group has walked through a number of ups and downs together over the last year especially, some big challenges, some small victories and everything in-between, and let me just say on the record that these two meet all obstacles with grace, empathy and faithfulness.

They are joyful and steadfast, full of kindness and SO much fun. For that and a million other reasons I know that they will be amazing parents. I had such a blast walking along the Spokane River with them, getting excited to welcome their first baby, and exploring Spokane rooftops in the most perfect fall weather of all time. Seriously… it was unreal!

(Sidenote: Joel made those tiny little baby boots. HE MADE THEM YOU, GUYS! So sweet.)
