Sophie and Bryce’s wedding day was simply beautiful from beginning to end. It was easy going and fun and full of laughter and smiles…and 2 people who love each other so well (surrounded by a lot of other people who love them so well also!). The Hickory Point Golf Course was a perfect backdrop for this gorgeous late summer day. I was particularly struck by the sermon during their ceremony, when their Priest spoke about God wanting our love for each other to be a living example of His love for us. I had heard this idea before, but hadn’t though in a while about how deeply helpful that sort of love would be for our world as a whole, for our communities and our workplaces and our friendships. I am so excited for Sophie and Bryce to become that living example, and truly believe they will be that kind of light for those around them. I saw it all day long in how they cared for each other and their people, and it was just such a beautiful reminder. Enjoy some of my many favorites from their beautiful day!




LOVE this moment! I wish every father of the bride would take this moment to peek at their daughter!

You're in the right place! As a past high school teacher, educating others is my life's work and a HUGE part of my business! I have been teaching moms and hobbyists how to use their camera from first purchasing it all the way to coaching them into businesses of their own, and I'd love to help you as well, wherever you are (and whatever camera you have!).
I'm so glad you are here! Teaching Photographers and other small business owners how to run more joyful, successful, and profitable businesses is one of my favorite parts of my business!
