Little Bro is Gettin' Hitched | Nebraska Wedding Photographer

I can't believe my baby brother is so.... grown up. He was the kid who never wore normal clothes.... it was super hero costumes only. He had the most incredible golden curls that flopped around his face in the summers and though he may not care to admit it now.... he was my little buddy. With dad at work and mom knee deep in her P.h.D. program, I was the oldest of all four of the kids, and was happy to embrace the role of big sis... taking it very seriously. :) He was my little brother, after all! He and Jamie have been together forever, and this summer... they are officially tying the knot. Both students, if they're not in class (or running to/from), they can usual be found studying. Jamie just switched to early childhood education, and Nick is pre-med. Over the years, I've repeatedly teased Nick that he is sooooo much like me (much to his everlasting frustration....) but, as he's getting older.... I like to think (and hope!) that I am also much like him in the sense that he is incredibly self-disciplined, focused... and capable of anything he puts his mind to. :)

His razor sharp focus at the moment is set on working his butt off to prepare for his upcoming MCAT exam. When I say 'butt off,' I mean.... the kid studies like nobody's business. His practice exams have scored him as high as 41 (he's already in the top 1%, and hasn't even taken the real test yet!). On top of rockin' grades, a killer study regimen, and of course, his ongoing dedication to his workouts (he has been obsessed with the study of physical fitness since he was about 12).... he is also a proud papa of little Cole... who will make an appearance as the 'best man' in the wedding this July.

And all of that makes me one proud big sister. :)

He and Jamie are quite the team. The support I see from Jamie towards them as a family and especially towards Nick is inspirational. They are simply adorable to watch... as the pictures show. :)

Of course Cole was with us for our shoot..... How could we not bring him??? Look at that face!!!!

I love this shot. Jamie has morphed into the role of 'mom' with such grace.... she just looks so classically elegant here... even while Col-e jumps on her. :)

I love the old Coke bottle here... (no, he's not really drinking it!)

Yay for the end of July! :)
