I got to spend my Friday celebrating with Sean & Tyana, and I had the absolute BEST time doing so!

This day was 2 years in the making from the time of their engagement, but a total of 8 years in the making from when they met! A college sweethearts love story?? The cuteness was just too much🥹 Then you have to add in a card box that was actually Sean's kindergarten Valentine's day box that his mother kept just for this occasion (I mean come ON), the most beautiful speech by Tyana's father, and a ceremony that quoted Harry Potter...

Friends? I was in shambles.

I can't wait to see all of the adventures to come for these two wonderful humans, and I know this is a wedding day that I'll think back on for a long time to come❤️

It feels like I've been getting the chance to document so many friends' wedding days recently, and I just LOVE every second of it🥹 Now, to be fair, I like to think that I'm friends with all of my couples by the time their wedding day is said and done. But the ones that I knew prior to this whole getting married shindig?? It always feels a little extra special to be part of those❤️

Jennifer & Larry's wedding was beautiful and heartfelt in all of the best ways. From touches that Jennifer carried throughout in honor of her sweet mom, to the most beautiful private vow exchange to calm any pre-ceremony nerves, to speeches from their wedding party that showcased just how much these two care about everyone around them, it was hard to glance anywhere without seeing the most beautiful thought in every detail.

Now please don't ask about our drive home. Hail & tornadoes. That's all I have to say.

Would you believe that the day before Rachael & Anthony's wedding, it was snowing heavily?? Because it was. Like...glad we rented a Jeep to go explore the mountains that day snowing. But what did these two cuties end up with on their wedding day? Bluebird clear skies, warm temperatures for their rooftop ceremony, and the perfect chill to the evening air for s'mores around the campfire! That's Colorado for ya🤷‍♀️

It was an absolute honor to capture their day, and so sweet to hear about all of the little details that went into making it personalized just for THEM. From their ceremony held under the watch of Lookout Mountain (where they always looked to guide them home, and also where Anthony proposed), to activities meant to allow their families to truly come together over their weekend together, to the BEST wedding meal I've ever had prepared by Anthony's favorite chef (you best believe I'll be visiting The Eddy every time in Golden now), there wan't a single element that was left without meaning.

Rachael & Anthony, I would document your love story over & over again! It was truly an honor to play a part in your special day❤️

And if anyone else out there is planning their day at The Eddy...ummm...I volunteer as tribute🫡

There are few better ways to spend Tax Day than by eloping in Zion National Park, and I will stand firmly on that opinion.

Getting ready together at a hotel in Springdale, a sweet first look before hiking to spend sunrise at one of the most iconic vantage points in the US, a walk along the Virgin River, sunset on the quiet side of the park...all a recipe for a perfect day amongst the red rocks.

These two were the cutest, wholly trusted me in helping them pull their adventure together, and leaned into truly just having FUN on their elopement day. It's always such a privilege to be able to capture these days, and that feeling hits just a bit harder when I get to be the only person invited along as my couples start their newest adventure🥹

Want to plan YOUR elopement in Zion?? Send me a message or leave your questions here!

A bit of an escape into the mountains for your Friday, a throwback to one of our favorite group trips, AND my formal request that you go elope in Alaska & invite me along to document it all. Sound good?? Perfect, I'll be waiting for your inquiry😁

The thing is, Alaska has SO many amazing options. Just by driving, you can make your way in a circle to Denali, Wrangell-St. Elias, and Kenai Fjords National Parks (our FAVORITE way to explore Alaska). I mean, that sounds like an EPIC plan for an elopement to me😉

Drop all your questions about an Alaska elopement in the comments!

Do you remember that trend (that I feel like we're FINALLY starting to move away from) where every photographer ever was just desaturating green until it no longer existed? Yeah...no thanks, man. Couldn't be me.

I adore green, especially when it comes to the rich colors that it gives forests in the Pacific Northwest. If you want an elopement day that feels vibrant and full of those deep, beautiful shades (even in the depths of winter), the temperate rainforests of Washington might just be the place for you!

And when you decide you'd like your elopement gallery to truly showcase those tones...I'll be right here waiting 🫶

Oh...and I hope you remembered to wear your green today😉
