This first look was overflowing with emotion. In a quiet, deeply meaningful moment, Kayla gifted Payton cuff links made from his late brother’s ashes - a beautiful and tender way to honor his memory and keep him close on such an important day.

When the wedding party shows up ready to celebrate, you just know the photos are going to be good! 🎉

I promise I’m still here, doing my best to wrap up galleries before the year ends, while also prioritizing my health and enjoying the holidays with family and friends. I made my editing a priority over posted but I have so so much to share with y’all!

Much appreciation to each and every single one of you 🫶🏻
