When one of my favorite photographers Tania Eastlake from Sadie & Co. emailed me with stunning images of a ridiculously gorgeous couple I got more than a little excited. Ash & Matt are too beautiful, this shoot could easily have been for their wedding! I love that bride to be Ash used the opportunity to try out a white dress, a bouquet and a floral crown… add in a booootiful furry friend, a gorgeous beach, and a very sweet proposal story, and I declare perfection! Enjoy.
