Summer slipped away far too fast, and I know everyone is all in on fall, but I'm over here in mourning.

This summer was such a sweet one. It was *full* in the best possible way.

I can't even begin to count how many special moments I got to be a part of both at work and at home with my family. Lots of big dreams and big moments, but even more sacred small ones, too.

Summer 2026, you were one for the books. Lucky me, I can relive parts of it any time I want, just a photograph at a time. xx

(Scenes from T&J's welcome party. Another weekend I won't forget.)

The weather felt cool this morning, so immediately I thought of fall. Didn't some singer, one time write about how August slips away?! ;)

Seems like we're right on the cusp of a new season, but I'll be here relishing summer a little longer.

All the happy tears!!

Finishing up this sweet gallery, and I find new favorites every time I scroll through.

What a gift to be a preserver of such meaningful memories.

Hailee & Evan on the shore -- first this past weekend in Jersey, next in St Michael's next fall.

Dreamboats, both of them, aren't they!?

In the room where it happens—
The space that holds thoughtful (and quippy) words from loved ones.
The celebration.
The part of the night just before the story changes hats into the party.
A sacred space.

Excited to be back under tent this weekend for another incredible East Coast wedding celebration.

The last few months have been a whirlwind, with *many* hours spent in my car. Obviously, all episodes of are caught up.

This weekend I'm trading my typical St Michael's drive for one to Long Island, feeling extra grateful that I get to see couples in *their* element.

It's going to be a special one— stay tuned!

A moment for just the two of them.

Feels like summerrr.

Popping out from my editing cave to share this cute portrait of Tommy & Grace from a few weeks ago. They make loving one another look easy.

Counting down to their wedding next spring at with . I know it's going to be a good one!!

Things have been quiet here *as of late*, because so much is happening behind the scenes.

The ever-present pull between motherhood and business... their quiet competition has gotten louder lately.

The *work* itself is just so dang delightful. I feel so lucky. My days are spent creating beautiful things, freezing moments in time, and hanging out with pretty incredible humans.

I feel equally as lucky to be able to herd my gaggle of hooligans and make lots of their summer memories.

So forgive me if while I'm listening to high-pitched squeals between editing sessions, I'm a little less present here.

I'm offline leaving room for the good stuff.

One of my favorite romcoms growing up?

Made of Honor — where Patrick Dempsey gifted the world the coffee collar.

So naturally, I'm convinced there are few things more romantic than custom coffee collars for the couple & their guests at cocktail hour.

Except maybe the latte art that featured the furry friends that couldn't show up in person as a part of the couple's destination wedding.

(well done, x )

One of my favorite personal nods I've seen at weddings lately.
