Yosemite National Park is a dream destination and a place everyone should visit at least once in their lives. We were in awe of the striking landscape all around us, no place compares. Olivia wasn’t set on any specific location for her bridal session, but with a dream of a mountain wedding, a planned trip west and the luck of her wedding dress arriving early from Kathleen’s Bridal – it was perfect.  In the week her dress arrived early, it was easy to suggest to Olivia to bring her dress along for the adventure, so we could make something unforgettable happen!

Ready for a full circle moment? Years ago when I first entered the wedding world, I set up a booth at the Celebrations Bridal Event held in the Von Braun Center hosted by Modern Brides.

Christ Centered Those are the two words to describe Mary Alan and Adam Abernathy.  In our very first email correspondence two years ago, Mary Alan eloquently communicated the importance of her faith.  She elaborated on her love for the Lord’s light! I immediately felt a connection with her, because  I too feel most connected to God as the sun reaches the horizon.   Throughout the uncertainty of 2020, she carried on with grace.  Less than one month from their original wedding date, the world shut down due to COVID.  God had a different plan, and it proved to be per ..read more
