ELMHURST ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS: MELISSA MARIE PHOTOGRAPHY: MAX + ASHLEY

On the regular, people ask if I have a lot of bridezillas? My answer, "Actually.... Not really. I have really great brides (and couples)." These two are perfect evidence that I'm the luckiest. We knew going into the day that it was going to rain. But they went for it anyway! I'd ask Max if he were getting wet (as he protected Ashley with the umbrella. He's say: "I'm fine." Then when I go to edit, I see more up close that he was actually totally getting rained on. This past weekend was my annual Holiday of Hope event where we raise funds for an organization dear to my heart: Invisible Girl Project. In strolls Ashley. And by "In" I mean it was an outdoor event and it was freezing! From pouring rain, to freezing temps, these two are such a good example of why I truly have the best couples! Max & Ashley, you're pretty dang great.
