If you are planning a wedding in less than 60 days — you should talk to Kathleen and Ben! These two got engaged and just couldn’t stand to wait to call each other husband and wife… and in about two months these two had planned a gorgeous day that beautifully represented their style. So on the first day of 2016, these two began a blessed journey together. Enjoy the photos — and don’t skim past their first look… if Ben’s reaction to seeing Kathleen for the first time doesn’t make you tear up, then I don’t know what will!
Our last 2015 wedding — Christmas-y, classic, unique, genuine, simple and stunning. Just a few words that come to mind when I think of Alicia & Everett’s winter wedding. We were so blessed to bear witness to this couple’s commitment to each other.
So excited for Kayla and Jared’s wedding next month! Check out their super sweet and fun engagement session! These two are beyond precious together!
These two got married yesterday!! I am so excited to go through all the beautiful moments/photos we captured — until then, here is their gorgeous engagement session!
I knew Andrea long before she ever met John. She a cherished close friend and has modeled for me numerous times!! I was so honored to be able to photograph Andrea and John’s wedding. Their wedding was full of beautiful DIY masterpieces! This vintage wedding, held on family property, was complete with charm and attention to detail. From flea market treasures, vintage china plates and teacups, hand sewn napkins . . .
I admire these two. They’ve been through moves, furthering their education, late nights studying, job changes, more moves, new dreams, and so much more than I even know. And through easy days and hard days, they’ve grown together… They live their lives with zeal — the joy and excitement they express over small things in life makes me smile. They didn’t need a big life changing moment to know that this time in their lives deserves remembrance. Celebrating the small things and the ordinary must be at least one of the keys to a happy life and a happy marriage. 😉 . . .
Please don’t despair if you don’t hear from Sarah for a few days, she is off making wedding memories of her own! Sarah and Mark will return from their honeymoon on June 17, 2015.
These two are so incredibly cute. Looking at them there is no way around it, but as you look at these photos, I hope there is something else you notice… gentleness. When I photograph couples, I often get to know them as we hang out… and in turn learn a little of their love story. Alicia, Everett and I began our shoot at a local coffee shop where they told me the story of how their relationship began (as I snapped some candid photos of course). Its a story that involved Everett intentionally seeking Alicia out, Alicia slowly getting to know him, Everett wondering if she wasn’t interested… but not giving up… walking a fine line between persistence and giving Alicia space and time to figure out what she wanted, hoping he wouldn’t get stuck in the “friend zone”.
