Rustic Romantic Carillon Beach Meeting House Wedding | Tanner + Chris

I love the rain. Stormy rain specifically. Give me a ridiculous thunderstorm, a cozy blanket, and my couch and I’m the happiest. I know it all came from my Dad. We always shared our love of a good storm, with fleeting dreams of chasing them. Now, I don’t love the...

🎶I’ve been quiet for so long // Fenway: Fat & Happy

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted. A bride asked me this weekend if I had posted the following story to instagram because she couldn’t believe how she missed it. I had to look back and I realized I’ve been silent since September 1. That goes for pretty much...

Kelsey had been visiting Fort Morgan for years with her family. They had a strict “no-outsiders” rule so when Nick was finally going to come out there with them, it was kind of a big deal. Kelsey didn’t realize just how big a deal until he was on one knee asking...

Pensacola Naval Air Station Engagement Session // Juliette & Michael

I sincerely believe in the engagement session. I know, what does that even mean, right? It means I think it's essential for couples to do one, with their wedding photographer, before their wedding day. It doesn't matter if it's 6 months before or 6 days. Doing one...

Tiger Point Golf Club Outdoor Wedding // Ashlie & John Tie the Knot!

I used to live down the street from Tiger Point Golf Club. I loved the sunsets out my back door looking over the 17th hole. Fenway would regularly observe the golfers on Saturday mornings, occasionally not-so-quietly. The place I lived in was alright but it's not...
