hi, there! I'm so glad that you have arrived here. The blog is a reflection of how I approach life. It has twists and turns and maybe a surprise or two if you keep your eyes peeled. Go on an adventure, get lost for a moment, and have no fear - you can always find your way back. Get in touch when you are ready. Your love story is epic, your photos should be, too.
I don’t know about you, but my Facebook feed has been blowing up with engagement announcements! I’m a sucker for all of the excitement couples feel during this time because I vividly remember the moment I got engaged myself! Once the reality of how to start planning your wedding sets in, though, the excitement quickly […]
My goal was simple. Read at least one page (front and back) every single day for 365 days. I didn’t want to put a goal any bigger than that out there because I thought I would fail. The last thing I wanted to do was end the year with yet another unread stack of books on […]

Jess and Mike are both transplants that found their way to the High Country—and haven’t wanted to leave—like so many other folks in this region that permanently relocate. This is where they’ve been building their lives together […]
They love to write and sing silly songs, they go for hikes in the mountains, they absolutely love to eat good food and drink good libations, and on their wedding day in Creston, NC, Katelyn and Seth managed to encapsulate the spirit of what makes their 9 year relationship so enduring and playful.
