If only the windows and the trees could talk, and

If only the windows and the trees could talk, and recount all of the stories that have unfolded amongst them.

All of the laughter that had echoed across every room year after year.

The tears of happiness shed in quiet exchanges and subtle glances.

The way the skies have poured without ever dimming the spirit of the celebrations that have filled every hallway.

The wild escapades two lovers have shared across the grounds, through the courtyards and to the pond.

Passion-filled first dances and the roaring toasts from friends, family, and strangers.

How the bright the world remained even in the darkest hours of the night because of an atmosphere full of new beginnings, unpredictable adventures, and unconditional support.

If only the windows and trees could talk, they’d tell us that every wedding celebration is a one of a kind, that the way you celebrate matters, and that your fondest memories will live on through them in one way or another.

The way I smile at such a thought, how delightful it would be.

A trip down memory lane, this frame is a small feature from last summer on the farm with some of my dearest friends.

The way everything melts together - the land, the textures, the sentiment, and the richness of summertime tones - it’s blissful.

These are the kinds of moments I look forward to experiencing with my couples as we emerge from the dormancy of winter, and into the liveliness of the warmer months ahead.

What a wonderful thing to look forward to.

Spring is right around the corner, which means this is the time of year I’m reminded of this incredibly sweet, deeply emotional, and pastel-saturated vision of love.

M + D’s micro wedding showcases the enormous amount of beauty and meaning woven into small weddings, and how they are powerful expressions of celebration and authenticity too.

This is the kind of wedding experience that was perfect for M + D, and their families. They found a way to include the people and the things important to them that supported their values, without compromising the intimacy they wanted to structure into their day.

Nothing makes me happier than watching couples find the wedding path that aligns with who they are, what they want, and emphasizes the things that matter most to them.

I was revisiting past adventures when I stumbled upon this shot, which has become a new favorite of mine.

A loving father holds his young son with a strong arm, and an even stronger appreciation that both of his children got to be apart of this special day - the day that he got to renew his vows with the love of his life, the mother of his children.

What a beautiful, full-circle moment to be apart of.
