Hello, everyone!

Chris and I just got home from our NYC engagement session with Jessica and Eric, and we are so excited to share some of our favorite images! We had an absolutely amazing trip, full of wonderful sights, perfect fall weather, and getting to see new and old clients who live in the city. Seriously such a great trip!

Jessica and Eric are both from the same small town in Indiana, but actually met on a plane to Colorado. They ended up sitting next to each other and hit it off, chatting the whole way! They didn’t exchange numbers, but later tracked each other down through Facebook and finally went on their first date in Indiana. When Jessica was moving to NYC for grad school, they decided to move together, and are currently loving life in the city along with their English bulldog (who I can’t wait to meet!)! I love how sweet and easy-going these two are together, and the way that they are so intentional about living their lives. They don’t plan on living in the city forever, so they have a bucket list of things they want to do while they are there that they are making their way through! And the Brooklyn Bridge was one of Jessica’s, which we got to check off on Sunday  🙂  They were excited to document this time in their lives, as a young couple living in the city; we were so happy we had the opportunity to photograph them! We loved every minute of exploring the city with these two, and absolutely can’t wait for their Tennessee wedding later this year!

Jessica and I had been watching the weather for weeks, and at the last minute, the forecast for Saturday turned to rain. We rescheduled for Sunday and we seriously could not have asked for a more perfect, fall day!

After a delicious dinner (Bill’s Bar & Burgers…highly recommend!) we wrapped up the day in Times Square to enjoy the chaos and the lights!

Jessica & Eric-thank you so much for hanging out with us and being so awesome and up for adventuring all over the city! We had such a great time getting to know you both better, and seriously can’t wait for your wedding!

Thank you all for stopping by the blog! We’d love to have you join us on Facebook, where you can stay up to date with all the latest adventures! Have a great week, friends!

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
