This is the best part of the job.

Three years, three photos, three very different stages of life.

In this unique and amazing role I have the privilege of being a tiny part of so many special moments. Cheering you on during your wedding day, documenting the first days with your newborn, and capturing the memories of your growing family.

What a joy to see my couples and families year after year to continue to capture each and every stage of life.

🙏 Now thank we all our God
with heart and hands and voices,
who wondrous things has done,
in whom his world rejoices 🙏

The Bishop repeatedly sang this prayer throughout his homily for Christine and Adam’s Nuptial Mass. Important, beautiful, powerful words for us all to remember, especially on a day so full of love and thanksgiving.

It’s clear that God has been a part of their love story before they even knew it was happening. God does wondrous things, and on a day like this, the world rejoices.

🙏 who from our mothers’ arms
has blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today 🙏

It’s hard for me to admit that the baby of the family is no longer a baby 😭

I’m so impressed with the amazing woman she’s growing up to be. She’s smart and clever and has a wit and humor I love to be around. She has a great appreciation for others, for good books, for fun and for rest, for family. She’s beautiful inside and out. She loves hard and laughs even harder no🤣 She knows who she is and has an excitement for the future that I envy.

I couldn’t be prouder of my (not so baby) baby sister 🫶

Here’s to senior year, Natalie! You will do incredible things.

Love,
Your big sister
