Sadie, our fun GTNP elopement photographer is turning the “dirty thirty” today. However, I think we can all agree Sadie ages like fine wine! I think I know her secret. First, you have to have an incredibly kind heart. Second, you have to have a giving spirit. Third, you have to have a contagious smile and laugh. Forth, you have to be willing to go on a random adventure. Fifth, you have to be a ray of sunshine everywhere you go. I cannot get over this birthday session she put together! Be prepared for at least three other blogs about this session.

Her Kind Heart – Fun GTNP Elopement Photographer

Sadie has such a kind heart. I have seen her reach out to people who have heavy spirits and genuinely minister to them. It’s not fake. She genuinely cares for other people and will always help them if she can. People are receptive to her, because they can tell it’s real. She really truly cares. Doesn’t matter if she has known you for years or five minutes.

Her Giving Spirit

I can’t tell you how many times I have had to tell Sadie NOT to drive to pocatello to help me. She is always wanting to give of her time and talents to help others. She’s a giver. She’s always filling others buckets. So, if you can, reach out to her and tell her how much you love and appreciate her. Let’s make sure her bucket is always full!

Always on an Adventure- Fun GTNP Elopement Photographer

Sadie is my adventure buddy. We have this much fun as wives and mothers, I bet we would have had so much fun if we were college roommates! She pushes me to face my fears (swimming in the ocean). When we were in the Bahamas we were finding conch shells. Sadie is such a good diver. I would see the shells and tell her where they were. I would help push her down since the water was so salty. She would pry them out of the ocean floor. I’m not exaggerating. People were fascinated and cheered her own the whole afternoon. Their shouts and excitement were so funny. By the end of the night we were famous on the island and cruise ship! There was also that time we were driving on the wrong side of the road. But, we don’t need to go into detail about that one! Let’s just say it’s an experience that will always make us gut laugh.

A Ray of Sunshine

The meaning behind the name of Sadie is: SADIE, A goddess who walks in fields of wildflowers and beams with brightness of the sun giving joy to all who meet her. Okay, okay. Maybe I made that up. But, it’s totally how I feel about Sadie. Have you ever met someone who just radiates fun and radiates sunshine?! If not, you have not met Sadie!

Happy Birthday Sadie! Thanks for being my friend, and everyone’s friend. We all love ya, and can’t wait to see what amazing things you do this year!
