2021 Remembered in Photos

1 - In reflection I started to understand how much I really faced this year. Most of it was internal. A constant struggle of staying out of traps in my own mind. A back and forth with God on how worthy I might be. An enormous and inescapable doubt of how capable I am. Trial and triumph switching seats at the table. Me realizing the seat was open to the enemy. Learning how to uninvite him from the dinner party of my life and thoughts.
2 - Met a couple who are so glaringly obviously meant to be together. Got to capture their engagement and wedding. Witnessed pure joy and true love represented in choices. I cry at the thought of this day. Thank you + for the honor of achieving a major milestone by capturing you achieve one of your own.
3 - My first wedding photos. That kinda sorta happened as an accident. I showed up fully prepared to shoot a 2-3 hour party celebrating a recent elopement. I had no idea that I was shooting a wedding, with a dress, and rings, and vows. And it was absolutely beautiful. Thank you for an opportunity that opened my eyes. In the moments before the ceremony began, as I was realizing that a ceremony was about to begin, I held back tears. I was here. It was happening. Something I had dreamed of since I was a kid was right in front of me. Thank you + I wish you both a beautiful lifetime of adventures and gorgeous views of the earth stretched out in front of you. I was honored to have played a role in this celebration and to be witness to inspiring traditions.
4 - A third and final wedding in 2021. A longtime teammate of my brothers and his longtime girlfriend tied the knot. Perfect weather and loving friends and family gathered on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate with yet another couple that is glaringly, obviously meant to be together. I thought maybe as I photographed more weddings, they might become mundane or repetitive. What I learned was that each moment becomes more beautiful as it unfolds. The honor and humility grow as you realize the trust that is being given to you as the memories of this day live through the button you click.

If you’re like me and you have such a hard time picking out jewelry…JAG/ged Edge would be like Disney World for you. Each piece is so colorful and unique-it makes it so hard to choose just one! The beauty of it is that you don’t have to! These pieces are beautiful AND affordable

And even better…they are handmade by my amazing friend Danielle who credits her talents and skills 100% to Jesus Christ. If you ever have the chance to meet her, you will just want her to follow you around everywhere! She is such a bright and contagious reflection of His love! I am so thankful to have her in my life!

Happy graduation day to all the Samford seniors but especially this one!! Bailey is such a kind and genuine friend and even after a few years of not seeing each other, it was like no time had passed at all! One of the best parts of this job is getting to work with friends and family and getting to mark the milestones in their life with photos that speak to who they truly are.

I wish I could truly explain. I wish these photos did it justice. I wish I could lead you all to a place where you feel the undeniable presence of God from the moment you open the door. That place for me was Rooted and Grounded. Verses and reminders of God are sprinkled all throughout the building, but the faith and love that is poured in is poured in by the gallons. Caroline, the owner, is a reminder that we can forge a career for ourselves that is completely selfless. She is a reminder that God is our main focus, loving and serving Him and our neighbors is our first and only ā€œjobā€. She is a reminder that being fearlessly unashamed of our faith is the truest, happiest, most beautiful thing we can possibly do. After I was done snapping photos, Madi and Caroline prayed over me. And y’all...I have never felt so fiercely loved. Their prayers were like the electricity running through me that sparked the light and allowed me to see my path. They prayed that God would allow others to see His grace, His love and His light in my artwork. They prayed that my path would be full of opportunities to share His message. They prayed that I would bring so much glory to God. I am praying these same prayers for all of you today. And I strongly encourage a visit to this little white building on Dauphin Street, that is making the world a better place with every sip.

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have the power together, with all the Lord’s people, to grasp how wide and long, high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:17-19
