April 14, 2011 - 8:33 pm Hi Brandon and Kristin! I sold a little bag of felt heart confetti to Michelle and she told me that after her engagement shoot with them, she’d share links to the photos.

This is SO making my ‘best things ever to happen’ list. I’m sharing this like it’s hot. π April 14, 2011 - 8:33 pm Hi Brandon and Kristin!
