It’s rare to find couples who have been together for 10+ years before getting married. Michael and I dated 8 years before getting married and we thought that was a long time! Curtis and Lauren put us to shame! They have waited over a decade for this day. Their relationship started when they met working at Ukrops and they have been together ever since! I loved hearing their friends and family talk about how excited they were that this day was finally here!
When you date for a decade, certain things start to happen…. like your moms may become best friends! Michael’s mom and is one of my mom’s closest friends and so I loved seeing Curtis and Lauren’s moms interact on their wedding day! They laughed together and cried together. What a gift it is for a couple’s families to love one another!
I loved the family aspect of their wedding but I also loved Lauren’s dad’s reaction when he saw her for the first time. I could tear up just thinking about it. There were so many sweet moments that happened throughout Curtis and Lauren’s day!
Not only did I love so many things about their families but I also loved Lauren’s sweet bridesmaids! They were hilarious! Their love and energy and excitement for Lauren on her wedding day was contagious!! Fun bridesmaids make the entire day fun!! So enjoy my favorite images from this Mill at Fine Creek wedding! And ps. If you saw my post on Instagram, you’ll know that Curtis and Lauren literally out ran a massive thunderstorm in order to get some extra portraits by the river!! Just another reason why we love them!

This beautiful day way unlike any wedding I have ever photographed before. It’s hard to put into words how powerful and inspiring it was.
If you’ve been following my updates since I got the R6 two years ago, you know I LOVE it!! It has been a game changer for me! But there is ONE mistake that I’ve made that cannot be fixed afterwards!
There are things that EVERY photographer should have on their website! We will walk through some students’ websites to see how small changes can impact their perceived value, and for you to see if what they’re missing is something that you are too!
You know what I’m realizing? I’m realizing I am loving getting to see people I love and miss in this very busy season of our life.
We’re gearing up for wedding season and there are so many ways to market yourself DURING a wedding to keep new clients coming in! I have been a wedding photographer for 13 years, and I have never paid for ‘traditional’ advertising!
I am eating my words again! For years, I have used InDesign for everything… but Canva had a HUGE update last year which changed everything!!
