Hi Friends!

Wow. I don’t even really know where to begin with these two amazing people. For me, there is just nothing better than capturing the wedding day of two people who are so obviously meant for each other. It makes my heart sing-it’s exactly why I do what I do. There was such a peace, such a sense of trust and comfort, that ran just beneath all the excitement and celebration of Allison and Connor’s day. I remember a quiet moment in their ceremony, between taking photos, the breeze was blowing, the sun was peeking through the trees, and I just became aware that I was witnessing something absolutely sacred. People often ask me if I get tired of watching ceremony after ceremony, vows after vows, prayer after prayer. But, I can honestly say that I don’t. I love watching two people make their lifelong commitment to each other, and though there are a lot of the same things that happen during ceremonies, the way the commitment happens is always completely different. my favorite part of a ceremony is my opportunity to whisper my own vows, and feel a renewed sense of love and admiration for my own hubby. remembering the commitment I made so many years ago.  It’s pretty special when someone else’s wedding can do that for you. 🙂

Allison and Connor, thank you for speaking to me through your own actions. Your love for each other and others is so present. I felt incredibly blessed to have met you both and to have witnessed two amazing people commit their lives and hearts to each other. 

Much joy!

alea
