Coming back from a mission trip and looking at these photos feels like returning to a special place. It was only about a month ago that Joseph and Joelee got married, but when I look at these pictures it feels so much longer. They are a timeless couple. I usually hold my emotions deep inside when I shoot a wedding. I try to be present with the light and composition and reflect on the entire day later. A holistic practice of sorts. This wedding captured every part of me. Maybe it’s because the couple are deep deep friends. Maybe it was the beauty of East Tennessee pulling me in. Or maybe simply it was the sacred space blessed by their love for eachother. Their goodness. And their unwavering love for God.
Thank you, Joseph and Joelee for a sweet sweet opportunity.
