I’ve had the joy of photographing Anna & W***y through every chapter of their love story — from dating, to engagement, to their beautiful wedding day. 🥹✨

Their boho garden wedding in Oregon at Log House Garden was full of meaningful details, sage green touches, and the kind of love that radiates through every photo.

Being a part of their day felt like coming full circle. Grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it.

Eight years married 🤍⁠
What a wild, beautiful, ordinary, extraordinary thing it is — to grow up with someone. To come home to the same person through seasons of change, joy, conflict, and quiet.⁠
⁠
Marriage hasn’t been perfect. But it’s been real. And that’s the part I’m most grateful for. This love has shaped who I am — as a partner and as a photographer. Because when I photograph weddings, I’m not just capturing the beginning. I’m thinking about all the life that comes after it, too. I’m not just looking for the Pinterest shot. I’m looking for you. Your story. The way you reach for each other without thinking. The look in your eyes right before you say “I do.”⁠
⁠
Here’s to eight years of learning, choosing, growing — and laughing through the mess of it all. 🤍⁠
