Controversial to who? The size of your wedding is a personal choice, and choosing a guest list with intention can be the perfect wedding for some couples. And when you do choose a small wedding ... don't forget to call us because that is what we are all about!

Last week was almost a washout, but the rain stopped just in time for Meredith and David’s sweet elopement in City Park…. You know it’s meant to be when even the heavens are on your side! ☔️☀️❤️

She’s grown a little over the last 10 years, but that’s exactly why we love to keep documenting. How else are you going to hold on to all those memories?! 🥰

We love working with Second Harvest, and Harvest at Home is our absolute favorite event. Seeing the generosity of so many supporters in our community come together is heartwarming ... and watching some of our favorite chefs work is an absolute joy!

This year, we’re asking:

✨ Where can we make room for curiosity, hope, and quiet joy?

✨ What small, ordinary moments might we be overlooking? In other words, to borrow the words of Toby, ask ourselves more often “is this awesome, or is it AWESOME?”  That’s looking at life with wonder!
