Ashley and Justin have been two of our self-proclaimed biggest fans since day one! I knew Ashley from high school when we had a mutual best friend. I *always* wanted to be friends with Ashley, one of the friendliest, cheerful women I’ve ever met. If you’re having a bad day, she makes it better, if you’re having a good day, she only makes it brighter. Justin is an absolute sweetheart and I couldn’t be happier they found each other.

Both children of photographers, we were honored when Ashley and Justin asked us to photograph their engagement about a million years ago and completely heart broken we were booked on their wedding day, a fact Ashley laments every time we get together! :) While she wasn’t a “Root bride,” these guys are absolutely “Root lifers,” and I’m honored to call them friends.

They entered our portrait giveaway a few months back and were one of the winners of our mini sessions. We were so excited to not only get the chance to hang out with them again, but to meet their lucky children! These kiddos truly one the jackpot with two of the kindest souls I know.

Ashley and Justin, we love y’all more than words can say and always leave our visits wanting needing more time!! Bring those sweet babies to Walt Disney World already and come visit! <3

Cole and Norah, we’re so excited we’re friends now and we hope to play again soon!!
