The first time I met Nathanael was so long ago that I have little recollection, but the first time I met Audra I KNEW that she and Nathanael were going to be together forever!
Words (especially mine) really can’t do justice to the perfect fit that God designed with these two. Nathanael’s a really smart guy, and Audra keeps him at the top of his game. Nathanael likes to amuse us all with his sarcastic wit, and Audra knows how to keep him in check.
They’re both seriously passionate about God and life, and they’ve both lived in really cool places like Switzerland and Bermuda! Now to top it all off, they’re practically professional models. I’m not kidding; take a look and see!
Nathanael is a pilot, and they actually flew into the Lawrence airport rather than driving up here. Despite my fear of planes (and trains, and trucks, and really anything that’s large, powerful, metallic, and out of my control), I was jumping up and down at the chance to take pictures with some airplanes.
I think they feel the need for speed…I’m just sayin’…
So they were out there on the runway about to blow away in the wind, and I said, “You guys look like you’re about to take off!” Well, Audra misheard and thought I was telling her to look like she was taking off. Love it!
Thank you guys for flying in just to take these photos! I had a really fun time!!

Wow, these are great! I am loving the scale of the silo shot and the bright stripes of the runway photos. I also have to comment on the HUGENESS of the photos you post– they are physically eating up my screen and I love it! Perfect for this shoot!
