MARRIED // ASHLEY & JOSH

Really, there are so many swoon-worthy photos from this wedding that words do little justice to what a beautiful day it was.

Ashley is by far one of the most elegant brides I have photographed (one of my favorite wedding dresses, as well!). This was also my very first wedding at Tryphena's Garden, and let me tell you, I had at it! It is such a supple, diverse place to shoot at. I loved the ceremony site--soaked with sunlight and framed by greenery--and the property offered SO MANY lovely places to photograph this stunning bride and groom.

Ashley and Josh, you carry an ease with you that this world lacks tremendously. From the first e-mails, to the Engagement Session, to the Big Day, you two were a breath of fresh air. It's as if the moment I stepped in to photograph you, I got swept away in the peace that exists when you two are together--couples like you make my job so very easy. I am so grateful our paths crossed--grateful I was chosen to document such a momentous occasion. I can't imagine the amount of influence you two will have on those around you. Keep that light, peaceful spirit at the core of your relationship. God has certainly given you something to treasure. I believe in the work that God is going to do through each of you as you begin this journey in life.

Enjoy, friends.

SOUTHERN SUNLIT ENGAGEMENT SESSION // CHRISTA & JORDAN

I melted when I first looked through these images. Seriously.

Photographing Christa and Jordan was a breeze--Jordan was a hoot, and Christa and myself enjoyed the continuous laughter. With all of the fun I had, I didn't notice the tiny details of how they showed their love. His small glances at her. Smiling while kissing. Holding hands extra tight.

I teared up as I caught the details in the editing process. These two are seriously, noticeably, in l-o-v-e.

The sun couldn't have been more friendly. (The gnats could have been... but that's just a Southern Summer for ya'.)

I hope you smile as you look through pictures that only offer a glimpse of what love feels like.

Enjoy, friends.
