He proposed at dusk on the beautiful beaches of Mexico, in front of their loved ones, with a mariachi band playing alongside the ocean waves. Adalid and Haylee, your love is eternal.

Two weddings left to wrap up this year, bringing the final count for 2022 to 17. I’ve only shared maybe four of those weddings here on insta, so get ready for lots of new content coming your way in January! I’ve got plenty to keep me busy through the winter. Had to share a little more from Lila and Brice before I could move on, it’s just too dreamy. ✨

One thing about grief and loss: it brings into focus the joy and beauty when you have a moment of relief. Thankful for my sweet sister-in-law, brother, and their tiny baby, Rosalee Donna Tobin. 🤍

I’m trying to write this and keep starting over. I really don’t know how to explain what it’s like to return to this space after losing my mother. I’m not doing ok. And I’m also somehow making it. Feels like I’ve been in a shipwreck, but managed to grab a life raft and basic survival kit. And now I am drifting, and have been adrift for four weeks and one day. I’m sick of it, but I’ve also learned how to manage it. I’ve crafted a little sunshade, I’ve learned how to catch fish with my hands (only one per day, so I’m typically fasting), and the water is somehow not salt water. That’s what this feels like. Even with all of the dear people who have supported me, and even with my delightful children to bring me smiles….it still feels like I’m floating in a life raft. Not ok, but alive, and hopeful that at some point, I’ll find an inhabitable island where I can build a better boat. Alright, that’s all I’ve got. That’s my update. I’ve managed to do a tiny bit of photo work: culling a wedding, editing a session, shooting a mini. I’m still here and for now I plan to keep going with this work. All prayers, caring thoughts, and grief podcast recommendations welcome.

These two photos are now two of the most important in my world. Miss you so much, Mom, love you no matter what. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I’ll get back to photo work tomorrow, thanks for being so understanding as the shock wave settles.

Sweet Sammy. This age is one of my favorites, when they’re so full of curiosity and sweetness and independence.
