5 years, a cold and some pumpkins

This weekend Meghan and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary. I guess 5 years doesn't sound like a long time but we have had a jammed packed few years. Two houses and working on 2 kids. I wouldn't trade it for the world.


Meghan and I were going to drop Sophie off at my parents house so we could have some time alone and go out to eat. I was SO looking forward to this weekend, not only because I LOVE to eat but I was looking forward to spending some quality time with my lovely wife and was going to be able to sleep in without a crazy little almost 3 year old waking us up at 5:45 in the morning.

So in typical Slimick fashion, what can go wrong WILL go wrong! Friday morning I woke up with a sore throat. No big deal, I'll take it easy and it'll go away, right? WRONG. Saturday I woke up with a Barry White voice a pretty intense cold and a fever. No bueno. But I did my best to make the most of the day...bring on the medication. Meghan and I decided to keep Sophie home with us and make our yearly trip to the pumpkin patch.

It wasn't a quiet day home with my sweetie and a nice dinner but this is what family is all about. Getting out and having a blast.


We have very few pictures with the whole family for two reasons. 1. not too many people know how to use my "big" camera and 2. I don't always like the idea of a complete stranger holding a few thousand dollars of camera.....so I always pick the slowest looking person.



Sophie was so pumped on all of the pumpkins!

Engagement Session

Last week I had the awesome experience to shoot Haley, Marcos, Carley and Keyes...and the dogs! These guys all have the sweetest spirits and were a true pleasure to shoot.

A few days out from the shoot I was checking the weather and saw nothing but clouds and lightning...not good. So after some pretty intense prayers, Saturday rolled around and what did we get? A beautiful day! It was a pretty wet morning but the sun poked through and dried everything out just in time for the shoot. Here are a few favs from the evening.

Photo Of The Day - My Family

So, this is “us”. Me, Meghan+baby and our fist little blessing, Sophie. When I pulled into the driveway the other afternoon Meghan and Sophie were “chalking” as Sophie calls it, and Meghan had created this masterpiece. Ever since I shot this picture I cant stop looking at it! SO, I thought I would throw it up and let you all enjoy it as well! This is my family.
