This week we have a few furry friends, an epic thumb war and a steam-punk engagement shoot on a train! REMINDER, you can always click on a photo to see more!

RJ & Amanda’s eco-friendly science experiment wedding

My partner and I aren’t at all religious, but both work in scientific fields and spend most of our free time hiking and rock-climbing. Add in that we’re both hopeless geeks, and a science museum is the obvious place to get hitched.
