After a year and a half of waiting, Cassandra and Blake were able to finally celebrate their special day with their friends and family! :) Some of you may remember they held a very small, intimate wedding ceremony last year on their original wedding date (see blog here) and decided to postpone their larger gathering to 2021.

It truly was such a JOY and honor to document their larger gathering this year! All the details were so beautiful, and I especially loved seeing the excitement on everyone’s faces. Two Roosters were also there and served ice cream during the reception! It was such a fun and sweet treat! :) See more beautiful highlights from this wonderful day below! Congrats again, Cassandra and Blake!

There is nothing more special and meaningful than capturing photos at home! I had the honor of working with the Miller family in the fall, and we had such an AWESOME time documenting some lifestyle photos of their sweet family! They have the CUTEST bernadoodle named, Roger, and he was 10 months old and 60 pounds at the time of the shoot. He was such a happy and big puppy! :) Even though he got neutered a few days prior to our shoot, he was still bounding in energy and enthusiasm. I captured some photos of them doing tricks with him (like shaking hands) and it was SO adorable! We also captured some GORGEOUS photos outside their house near the railroad, and the sunset was stunning. Scroll down to see more beautiful photos!

I had the wonderful honor of capturing Cassandra and Blake’s intimate wedding ceremony earlier this month! Like many brides and grooms, they’ve been planning for months for their spring wedding, but had to rearrange their plans due to COVID-19. They decided to hold a very small, intimate wedding ceremony on their original wedding date and postpone their larger gathering in the fall for family and friends. Fortunately their wedding venue, Merrimon-Wynne House, was able to still let them hold their intimate wedding ceremony! It included only their parents, officiant, first witness, and me (who had the honor of acting as a second witness!). The ceremony took place on the lawn and we made sure to practice good social distancing. Blake set up his camera to stream their wedding on Facebook Live so their family and friends could watch—it was so sweet and thoughtful! I also loved that he also used his GoPro as a backup to record their wedding (I’m all about backups, too!). After the ceremony, we signed the wedding certificate and took a few portraits to remember this special day.

If you have a wedding coming up and desire to get married on your original wedding date, consider hosting a very small, intimate ceremony on your original wedding date and hosting the reception at a later date. I’d be more than happy to be your photographer as well as your second witness, too :) Congrats again, Cassandra and Blake, and can’t wait to celebrate y’all again in a few months!
