Happy Tuesday, everyone!

We are just so excited to share these images from Lindsay and Taylor’s intimate family wedding ceremony with you all today. Lindsay and Taylor are exceptional humans, who we have so enjoyed getting to know throughout their wedding celebrations. They are so thoughtful and so intentional, and everything they planned was extremely meaningful. This ceremony was actually the first of two (well, technically 3!) ceremonies (more from the second day coming to the blog next week! UPDATE: See their day two celebrations here!). Lindsay and Taylor initially wanted to elope, but also wanted family to be able to experience the big wedding day. So they found a cabin in middle Tennessee, and on a Sunday morning, were joined by family and a few close friends to officially mark the beginning of their marriage. Lindsay wore a beautiful blush vintage gown, and a bracelet that has been worn for generations by women in her family on their wedding days. After the ceremony, they shared a champagne toast (or maybe more of a mimosa toast!) before giving gifts to celebrate their families coming together, then they prepared a delicious meal for everyone! During lunch, they also celebrated Taylor’s birthday (which was a few days ago–so be sure to wish him a happy birthday!). It truly was perfect.

Taylor and Lindsay wanted the day to feel thoughtful, and they put a lot of time into planning the ceremony with the help of their close friend Stijn from Belgium, who officiated the ceremonies both days. It was so beautifully personal to them, and I have about a million favorite parts. But I’m going to let the images do the rest of the talking for this incredibly joy-filled day!

BEHIND THE LENS

A note from Jen

Purpose and passion and the lessons of over 17 years of weddings...

I'm writing this today staring out at the bright blue Colorado sky, near Boulder, CO where I live with my husband of nearly 17 years and our 8 year old son. We moved here to chase the mountains and adventure and a life fully lived, after over a decade in Nashville, TN. 

It might seem silly to say that I believe part of my purpose here on this earth is creating photos at people’s weddings. But here’s the thing. Life is absolutely going to life. There are going to be days and seasons that are freaking hard and awful and the world feels like it’s burning down (literally, metaphorically, in all the ways). And there are going to be days full of so much love and joy and bliss and peace that you wish you could just bottle it up for all time.

And I feel so strongly that that’s WHY a wedding matters. And why your photos matter. And why making it so intentional and purposeful to you matters. To create the space to intentionally create beautiful new memories together. Because it’s a weekend to say that this love (yes, all love) and these people (yes, all people) MATTER. It exists. It is real. And it’s worth celebrating the f*** out of. In a radical defiance of everything telling us to be scared and wall up our hearts.



And it’s worth documenting. My purpose in this is to be present with what’s there on your wedding day—all the joy, love, and whatever else is showing up—and creating the record of it. A record of what is true to you. So that when the days hit hard, you can point back at this anchor of joy and love, and know that it exists. It is real. It is worth celebrating.

Sending all the love, wherever this journey of life is meeting you today. xoxo, Jen
