I knew I was going to love these two from the moment I met them! I remember pulling up to meet Kerri & Matt for their engagement session way back in September, and two seconds after I gave them their first hugs, I was spraying wrinkle release all over Kerri’s adorable engagement session dress. Needless […]

Ok I need y’all all to know that today’s post comes with ALL THE FEELS! I met Liz a number of years ago when we were both fitness instructors at Penn State. She was one of my mentors and originally taught me how to teach barre fitness! Fast forward a few years, and I got an email from her, saying that she was ENGAGED and wanted me to be her wedding photographer. Being asked to play a very small part in documenting someone’s love story is always a huge honor, but when it is someone that you’ve known for years, it definitely hits you right in the feels! Having the opportunity to capture Liz & Tyler’s day was the biggest honor and privilege, and I spent most of Saturday with tears in my eyes.

Full disclosure before we get the party started with this post: it is going to get real personal real fast.Have you ever had one of those rough weeks where you are hard on yourself… about everything? Where you feel intimidated and unworthy and just all around icky about life? I’ve been in that place recently, and oh my goodness am I feeling refreshed after last night. I am so, so thankful.
