I think wedding mornings are one of the most human parts of the whole day. Everybody is wandering around trying to get ready, while carrying the full weight of what’s about to happen a few hours later. Knowing this is a day they’ll remember forever.

It’s sweetly awkward, emotional, and weirdly normal at the exact same time.

So much fun and never a dull moment. I dressed up as Austin Powers and baby, that polyester was something else 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ready for another one like this 💘

Why does the location seem like the first thing to fade from memories?

Seeing faces makes it easiest to know who is in the picture, but not always where it was taken. A yard becomes unfamiliar, houses get sold, scenery changes...

I love photographing families in environments they already spend time in, and I always try to capture the aspects that make them memorable to me.
What would I want to remember about this place?
