katie+henry  ::  married 5 years  •  5.17.08

How they met, as told by Katie  ::  We met at IU (Bloomington), where we were in a higher education/student affairs grad program together. I was helping to plan our prospective-student welcome weekends and Henry volunteered to help on the committee.  The weekends had traditionally been called “Outreach”, but I renamed our committee meetings “MAKE-OUT reach fun” because I’m crazy and thought that dorky joke was hilarious. On the last night of the program, Henry and I kissed, so I guess my joke worked out for someone (Nora).

I hate to be cliché, but damn time sure does fly!You guys know how much I love photographing families in their homes.
