Sneak peek from the first wedding I photographed this season. š¤
After a much-needed season of slowing down, resting, and spending extra time with my kids, stepping back into a wedding day felt a little like opening the windows after a long winter.
Familiar.
Refreshing.
Good for the soul.
And somehow S&Pās wedding felt like the gentlest way to return.
Thereās always something special about the first wedding of the season. The nervous excitement while packing my bags the night before. The feeling of picking up my cameras again. The quiet reminder of why I love documenting people in love for a living.
Not just the big moments.
But the small in-between ones too.
The deep breath before walking down the aisle.
Hands reaching for each other without thinking.
Friends laughing in the background while the sun slowly disappeared.
I drove home that night feeling grateful.
For this work.
For trust like this.
For another season of stories waiting to be told.
