Kaidyn,

“To know her was to love her”

Is something I’ve read and heard to describe sweet Kaidyn over and over again.

Ever since she was little Kaidyn had a way of making you feel like the most important person to her, she went out of her way to say hi and talk to you, she cared about how you were doing and if she could help. Her laugh made you laugh, her smile brought a smile to your face, she cared deeply about how you felt leaving a conversation with her, and she wanted to make everyone around her feel loved. I swear there was a light that followed her around and came and went when she did.

She loved her friends and family more than anything and took such good care of everyone she met. Everyone became a friend to Kaidyn instantly and you looked forward to the next time you got to see her. We would check in with each other and I always got a “love you sissy” at the end, I along with so many other people will miss those.

We had so much fun taking her graduation pictures this day back at SCC, she told me all about how excited she was to teach, and to be back at her school. She loved every child she met deeply and they all loved her too, she was the perfect teacher I think.
I feel so honored to have shared in such a big time in her life with her, I will absolutely never forget looking through my camera and getting to see that bright beautiful perfect smile. She is and always will be so beautiful to so many people.

Sending all of her friends and family our loudest prayers and biggest love, but it doesn’t seem like enough when you lose someone like this. I know she would never want us to question God, but it’s hard not too in times like this.

We love you Kaidyn.

Allow me to introduce The Meyrs!

I got to spend yet another Saturday being part of such a special day for another couple. Every single detail of this wedding was perfect.The love. The people. The beauty. THE FLORALS I WILL NEVER RECOVER FROM! Makenzie is such a beautiful and perfect bride and this day was filled with so much love. Her and Zach have such a beautiful love and I know they will be blessed for many years to come.

Every time I leave a wedding I am overcome with emotion the whole ride home that my beautiful brides trust me to not only spend their day with me side by side, but to capture their once in a life time day with the loves of their life. I cannot express how amazing this wedding season has been already and I am just getting started. I am so overcome with gratitude.

Congratulations Makenzie and Zach. Praying for many blessings and a long happy lifetime for you both.

Cheers to the Meyrs!

Ollie and Hazel were nice enough to let us get some pictures of mom and dad while they had the best time playing. 🥰

Sam and Madison are so perfect I could not stop photographing them until the bugs carried us off. They also agreed to every pose I threw at them and nailed it! 🩷
