Congratulations to these two cutie pies! Hunter and Jess... You two were a dream to work with. I loved how you had so much fun planned into your wedding day and how unique/special everything was... from hosting your wedding on your very own land, to having guests seated on hay bales, to tossing shirts at your guests, the shoe game, anniversary dance, sparklers... Was an absolute blast from the moment I arrived until the moment I left. Thank you for trusting me to capture your day! I'd love to say so many more things about the two of you, but I am headed out the door and didn't want you to go another day without your sneak peek!

Cheers to the two of you!!

Matthew and Jade - What a treat you two were to work with. Thank you for inviting me into some of your most intimate moments as the two of you celebrated becoming one. It was an honor to hear your personal vows, to get a tiny glimpse of the love you two share. To see you both offer kind touches in support of the emotions being shared. It was also so much FUN and heartwarming hearing your friends' and family member's speeches... lots of beautiful and strait up joyfully/funny memories you've had independently and as a couple.

Jade, you were simply stunning. You're a "badass" babe decorated in the most beautiful wedding gown and furthermore, you embody so much love and strength. Thank you for conquering so much and vulnerably continuing to embrace life, it's ups and downs, while rising above it all.

And Matthew, so sweet. Your gentle soul no doubt offers the safety, patience and unconditional love that all partners deserve, but not all embrace. I hope you're able to abundantly fill your cup and continually overflow with the zeal and energy every individual and partnership needs.

You two, keep holding tight to one another... never forget the love you shared on your wedding day and let that blossom and grow into something you couldn't ever possibly imagine! Much love from Chris and I to the two of you.

Also, a huge shoutout to Giant's Ridge for continuing to be a beautiful and trustworthy venue for couples! From one vendor to the next, know that we appreciate your hard work! Giants Ridge

And Emerson, dude... You were simply the best to work with. Chris and I both wish you so much success and joy as a videographer in the wedding industry. Keep being authentically you. Honey Blue Media

Ethan! It was so great taking your senior portraits. You were a blast to work with and it was such an added bonus to have you remind me so much of my son... those goofy faces and sheepish smiles are the best. Congrats on your senior year! Hope it's the best school year yet!

Luke and Kari - Congratulations to the two of you, plus your little buddy (side note: I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the momma version of you Kari)! You made such a stunning bride, with your GORGEOUS smile and contagious joy! And Luke, what an incredible gift your quiet/tender, yet solid presence is to Kari and your little one. No doubt you two have many years of happiness ahead as a beautiful family. Thank you for asking me to photograph your wedding, to capture yet another milestone in your lives! Cheers to many years!

Dom and Linsey... You two truly are just so special. It was an honor to photograph and DJ your wedding! I felt like a real VIP all day getting to capture so many special moments.

Linsey - I feel like this may be a strange thing for me to say, but as I looked through your photos, I couldn't help but think, "Linsey was made to be a bride." Specifically during the getting ready photos, I love how I can literally see you absorbing all the words of adoration given by your girls, a calm look of confidence on your face as if to say, in the most humble of ways, "Yes, I know. I am an absolutely stunning and radiant bride, aren't I ?!?!"

I can't help but be struck by how calm you were, how ready. You appeared to be literally soaking in every single moment, putting each word, each thought, each expression into your beautiful memory bank. So special. You embody kindness, patience, empathy... all stunning characteristics of a genuine, beautiful soul. I am so honored to have met you.

Dom - I so appreciate you and get you. You bring so much energy and care to the people around you, especially Linsey. Some of my favorite photos are the ones that captured you sneaking quick peeks at your beautiful bride during the ceremony. While Linsey was either watching the musician, or reader, or officiant, you were adorably distracted by your gorgeous "sidekick." Cannot wait to share those moments with you both. I know you will continue to bring much love and laughter into your marriage.

Cheers to the two of you and the many adventures I know you'll go on. Much love to you both from Chris and I!

I am SO far behind on sneak peeks for my amazing clients. Here is the beautiful Miss Senya, Class of 2025 from GRHS. It's been fun seeing you become your own person, from Justin's little sister, to SENYA! Stunning, radiant, silly, and fun... I had a blast with you and am excited for your senior year!

Happy one week anniversary to Sam and Ashley! What a beautiful day and setting we had to celebrate the two of you becoming one! Surrounded by bright, spacious skies and tall pines boasting saturated green and blue hues, supportive friends and family... what more could we have asked for? The thought you put into all the details of your attire, decor, setting, guests, dinner, etc... to the detailed vows expressing your love of one another... it was all so absolutely perfect! Thank you for inviting me to join in the celebration of your love and the beginning to the rest of your happily ever after!

Here's the tiniest little sneak peek. Sending you two all the love and blessings!

GOOD morning! It's been a while since I last posted. Most of my weeks are filled with commercial shoots, but I'm still also photographing weddings, seniors, real estate, maternity, etc.

LOVED every second with this growing family. Mr. Huxley... You are such a cute, spunky little monkey. So much fun chasing you around. Joe and Emily... You guys are pretty great too. Haha! In all seriousness, thank you for having me hang out with the three of you and trusting me to capture these precious memories.

This wedding celebration was perfection. From the pure perfection of Hunter and Aubrey’s personalities and beauty, to the magnificent and stunning backdrop of Greysolon Ballroom, to the celebratory enthusiasm of guests enjoying the evening, to the wild and entertaining speeches that had everyone roaring in laughter, to the moms diligently avoiding crying while giving speeches, to the PACKED dance floor… It could not have been more incredible!

EVERY time I asked Hunter to look at his bride, he would get the biggest grin! And what was absolutely adorable, was Aubrey’s reaction that would oscillate between a beautiful, bright grin and a facial expression that I can best describe as, “I know, I’m a gorgeous princess.” Haha… But seriously, she is a princess (like a super sweet, with a quieter side of sass… princess).

Aubrey and Hunter… It is clear that you two are loved tremendously by a large group of genuine people. You both bring care and kindness into your marriage, along with two families who couldn’t be happier for each of you. Thank you so much for inviting Chris and I to celebrate your wedding day with everyone by capturing pictures and DJ-ing the night away. Great group and fun memories for sure! Cheers to MANY years!!!

I sure do love winter photo shoots with fresh snow, a custom crown and most of all, a super fun couple! Had a blast with these two and could not have asked for a more beautiful backdrop. Can't wait for your wedding day!!!
