• Such a sweet, authentic moment our photographer @abeautifulhistory captured on our wedding day almost four years! There’s such an importance in finding that balance between posed and candid images to tell the story of your day. There are times when your photographer should speak up and help lead, and other times when it’s best to kind of disappear and just capture the moments as they unfold. ✨One of the most amazing days of my life, and now I’ll always have this sweet moment, and will remember how long I searched to find a dress for Willow that closely resembled mine... 🙂👍🏻💕

  • Happy New Year! I feel refreshed after a brief Instagram hiatus. I’m so excited for 2020. I’ve spent the last few weeks reflecting on the last year and coming up with this year’s goals. Some of the ones I’m most excited for: -Finding an organization to regularly volunteer with -Starting a tiny veggie garden in the backyard -Reading two books a month ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If anyone has advice on how to conquer these goals I’m all ears! Finding a place to volunteer hasn’t been as easy as I thought it would be. I would really love to work with women and/or children, so please message me if you know of any opportunities! 😊 Anyone else have these same goals?

  • Yesterday was amazing! I'm not sure which detail I loved more- the donut tower or the delicious dinner served up by Jen and Daniel's favorite restaurant to eat at together! This couple found a way to create an intimate wedding filled with personal details while also creating an incredibly fun experience for their guests. I've never seen so many people on the dance floor at once! ⠀ I can't wait to share more in the days to come and was so honored to be a part of their wedding day.

  • Anyone else trying to figure out all of the Thanksgiving logistics with their family? It's tough and it can actually be really stressful. It's the busiest time of year and somehow you're supposed to fit in a giant meal with all of your family members when you only have one or two days off from work. Trust me, I understand. Ryan and I have a lot of family, and they live all over the state. ⠀ But, I want to share something that's so heavy on my heart this time of year.⠀ In 2016, we spent Thanksgiving in the hospital with my sister Erika. Erika had cancer and had also just given birth to my sweet nephew Graham. An incredibly thoughtful person put together an entire Thanksgiving meal so that our family could eat together. Erika didn't feel well. She didn't really eat. And, Graham was in the NICU. But, we were together.⠀ And, even Ryan's side of the family ate their Thanksgiving meal on an entirely different day so we could join them, too.⠀ I will never ever, ever forget that Thanksgiving or Christmas because it was the last one I got to spend with my big sister. It was the last time our entire family was together.⠀ So, even when things get difficult to plan, or really frustrating because nothing seems to work out, I try to be grateful that I have family who wants to see us and who wants to eat with us. Love on your family and figure out how to make the logistics work. Life just happens and things change so quickly. I'm so happy and thankful for these sweet memories and I cherish them!
