Hello,
We
are Ryan and Laurel. We wanted to share a little about ourselves, and
hope to hear more information about your photography services!
We
are Catholic, and strive to glorify God in our daily lives. We do this
especially through loving and serving others. “You did it to me.” We
have been dating for just over 11 months, and have been focused on
building a strong friendship. One of the ways in which we have done so
is by not kissing or being overly physically intimate—our goal is to
have our first kiss on the altar—so far, so good!
Ryan
has recently started his own business, Pro-Life Automotive. He works as
a car mechanic, small engine repairman, and tree trimmer. He comes from
a family of five, with one brother and one sister. He is a godfather to
his only niece and takes this role very seriously, as he does with all
things Catholic. He is a former member of the Intercessors of the Lamb, a
religious community that was suppressed by the Archdiocese of Omaha in
2010.
Laurel
works for Catholic Charities in their Family Services Department. Her
main responsibilities are to their Mentoring Moms program and their
post-adoption (search and reunion) services. She also provides
administrative support to their Pregnancy Counseling and Adoption
services. She comes from a family of seven, with 1 brother and 3
sisters.
As
Catholics, we wish to support business owners who have similar values.
As such, we do not wish to work with photographers who offer boudoir
photography or take images of a similar subject or that convey a similar
message. We say this with respect, and ask for your respect and your
honesty if you do offer these services.
Our
wedding will be October 1. We are going to be married at 10 AM at St.
James Catholic Church, with a reception to follow at Immaculate
Conception Recreation Center--we're going bowling! (There will still be
plenty of dancing though!) Our wedding aim is family fun friendly and
casual, but not to the point of low quality.
We are interested in possibly having a reduced rate with the morning wedding...though it is not absolutely necessary! We would need a photographer from 9 AM-3 PM, and those times are somewhat flexible.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Ryan and Laurel
