"Sweet, crazy conversations full of half sentences, daydreams and misunderstandings more thrilling than understanding could ever be."
— Toni Morrison

Congratulations to Amy and Justin who were married last Saturday on a beautiful and hot August afternoon. It was a pure gift to spend the day with the couple, their family and friends. It was not hard to be inspired by Amy and Justin.
Their sense of humor, affection for others and each other left a mark on my heart.
Continual love, laughter and joy to you both forever!

Wanna pack your bags, Something small
Take what you need and we disappear
Without a trace we'll be gone, gone
The moon and the stars can follow the car
and then when we get to the ocean
We gonna take a boat to the end of the world
All the way to the end of the world
-Dave Matthew Band

It was a privilege spending the day with Paul, Rachel and the many friends and family who love and care for them as they were married last Saturday. The energy of their love and commitment to each other was beautiful to witness and record. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day and much love and happiness to you now and forever.

Sarah is one of my dear friends that I have known for some time. Not only is she one of the most genius, creative and fun teachers I have ever met but she has one of the biggest hearts I have experienced and known. She loves her family and friends with all of it and spills over to her students and pretty much all who cross her path. When I got to really know Travis earlier this year, as I did their engagement pictures, I was struck with how much he compliments Sarah. He wears his heart on his sleeve, loves Sarah and together they are beautiful to watch and hang out with. Their wedding was my dream. Unique, fun, completely tailored to who they were as an individual and as a couple. Thank you for the honor of photographing your beautiful day. Thank you for our friendship.

"Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit"
what I see with you two, what I see you both give others, this quote speaks no bigger truth.
