Amelia + Andrew {love}

One of the greatest joys of my job is the variety.  Even though I would consider myself a wedding photographer, or a lifestyle photographer.. I would say my job description is simply to capture the love, the joy, the life among different people.  Which is why, when I got an email from Amelia about this photo shoot, I was beyond thrilled.  Amelia and Andrew have a bit of a different situation.  At the age of 16, Andrew was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.  Now at age 25, and after being cancer free for 6 years, it has come back.  Amelia and Andrew had their life ahead of them.. they did what all couples in love do and plan for the future. But now they are taking it one day, one treatment, one appointment at a time.  Andrew is at Hope Lodge in Minneapolis and endures daily treatments for this leukemia.  Even though now long distance, Amelia hasn't gone anywhere.  They are madly in love with each other and I had the huge privilege of witnessing this love!  They are two of the sweetest, most relaxed and most fun people I have met.  They have overcome more than most people their age ever have to face and they seem stronger because of it.

Here's to a long lifetime of love between you two.. many more football games and many more dances.

enjoy the preview :)
