Sarah + Brett are getting married *tomorrow* on their family farm!! 💗✌🏼 That makes two family farm weddings in a row for me, and I’m loving it.

Sometimes the world goes by too fast. Especially when you’re in the throes of a busy, hectic season of life, or, perhaps, on your wedding day. ✌🏼 This simple act can just help slow it down; whether you want to refocus or just enjoy the moment.
»
If you’re like me — those of us who tend to rush through life (for good reasons or no reason at all) — I bet you like to do this, too. Sometimes it’s hard to know what to focus on next, because you have sooooo much going on in your brain. And that gets... overwhelming. *sigh*
So: breathe. Then close your eyes and do it again. You’ll thank me afterwards. 💋

BRIGHTER » “I love you. Have done since the first day I laid eyes on you. When you’re here it’s like... the whole world is colored just that little bit brighter.” ✨💗

It felt *so* good to sleep in this morning after a few delayed flights coming home... 🤦🏻‍♀️ Does that always happen to anyone who connects through Denver, or is it just me?? 😂
BUT after I woke up, I got right down to business: worked out, answered emails, cared for my garden, unpacked/did laundry, and started working through Saturday’s wedding photos. LOVING these views from Carsen + Lucas’s *very* sunny first look. 💕🙌🏼

Allysa + Scott are eloping in beautiful Coeur d’Alene (45 minutes from my home) later this summer, and *I* get to be there!! 👊🏼💗
I don’t often get the chance to shoot engagement photos for my out-of-town or elopement couples, but when I found out they’re from Nebraska, and we realized I’d be flying into Nebraska to shoot an Iowa wedding.... we HAD to make it work.
I love it when schedules line up and I can get to meet my people even sooner than expected. 🙌🏼

Sure signs of adulthood: when your recent google searches include (but are not limited to)...
“diy heat pack”
“Verizon customer service”
“how to change lawnmower belt”
“diagram of a John Deere mower deck”
(yes those two are related)
“is a rotisserie chicken good for a whole week”
...and MORE 🤣

“I want to spend my days creating the life and art that are MINE to create, not pretending my reality looks like someone else's perfect. Fitting in seems safe, but truly belonging feels so much better.
Wherever you go, show up as YOU. Show up with your one beautiful, messy life.... Share that with the world. Because your life--the real one, the one you're already living--is pretty perfect, just as it is."

Soaking up one last weekend of freedom by DOING NO

Soaking up one last weekend of freedom by DOING NOTHING before wedding season kicks off for real!! If we’re friends and you’re only off on weekends, I’ll see you on September 4. 😂✌🏼
Fourteen weddings, twelve states, several flights, and a handful of road trips: all before the end of August. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!
•
PS: if I do see you between now and September 4 and I look *dead* - remind me that (a) I did this to myself and (b) I really, really, really do love that I can call this a job. Sheesh. How crazy is it that people PAY me to crash their weddings, meet their families, and spend time with them on the happiest day of their life?! Oh yes... I take priceless, treasured photographs, too, so I guess it’s a win-win scenario.

Read that again.
Your worth isn’t defined by how long your resume is. The total of all the pennies in your bank account, the grades in your classes, or the number of gigs you book during wedding season. Or how many instagram followers you have. All these things may be small measures of *success* - but they’re not exclusive, and they’re NOT meant to measure what you’re worth.
•
Your “worth” is measured up by the fact that (a) you’re made in the image of a holy God and (b) you are loved by Him NO MATTER WHAT. What you do with your life — the things you accomplish and learn, the ways you serve, the people you love — help to define who you are as a human in human terms... but none of that changes the fact that you wake up every single day and *breathe* because He created you to do so. Because nobody else can be YOU. And He loved *you* enough to sacrifice His own life for you, because to Him... you.were.worth.it. 💕
WOW.
