There is just something so special about a small, intimate wedding.

After many years together, these two finally made it official with a simple courthouse ceremony. I had the honor of meeting them afterward to capture this exciting new chapter, and I couldn't have asked for a sweeter couple.

I absolutely love photographing intimate weddings. They are relaxed, genuine, and filled with so much love. These two made my job easy, and their photos turned out beautifully.

Congratulations to this wonderful couple! Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and happiness together.

One of the greatest heartbreaks of loving a dog is knowing we never get enough time with them.

They aren’t just pets—they’re family. They grow with us, love us unconditionally, and become part of every chapter of our lives. Their faces may turn gray, their steps may slow, but the love they give never changes.

It was such a pleasure and an honor to capture sweet Dottie during this special stage of her life alongside her best friend, Jill. The love, trust, and bond they share was truly beautiful to witness.

Please don’t wait until it’s too late to think about professional portraits. The little details you see every day—the frosted muzzle, soulful eyes, and gentle spirit—are the memories you’ll want to hold onto forever.

Our time with them is never long enough, but photographs have a way of keeping their love close long after they’re gone.

Thank you, Dottie and Jill, for letting me preserve a small piece of your story. ❤️🐾 Jill Marie Straker

The Harper family just moved into their beautiful new home, and I was so honored to capture this special season for them. There is something so meaningful about photographing a family in the place where they will build traditions, celebrate milestones, and make years of memories together. From empty rooms waiting to be filled with laughter to the excitement of a fresh start, this session was such a beautiful reminder that home is not just a place, it is the people you share it with.

After a long 23-hour journey to Africa, what I experienced was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was surrounded by the kindness of the people, incredible food, breathtaking wildlife, and sunsets that felt almost unreal. Every day felt like a photographer's dream. I could have stayed for months capturing the beauty around me.

As much as I was sad to leave, I’m incredibly grateful for the time I had there. I carry with me not only the memories I made with new friends, but also the images I captured, moments I will treasure for a lifetime.

Kenya has truly left a special place in my heart. ❤️

Some love stories aren’t rushed — they’re built.

This beautiful couple has been together for years, walking through life side by side, and recently made it official by tying the knot. Their journey truly embodies the meaning of “in sickness and in health.” They understand that love isn’t just about the easy days, it’s about showing up, standing strong, and choosing each other through every season.

They’ve worked together to grow their bond and their marriage, and you can feel the depth of their commitment in every glance, every touch, every smile. Capturing their love was such an honor.

They are the sweetest souls, and I wish them all the happiness in the world as they continue this beautiful journey together.

Watching my niece grow from a little girl into the incredible woman she is today has been one of life’s greatest gifts and getting to capture her engagement photos was truly something special for me. ❤️

Behind the camera, I found myself reflecting on all the memories, the milestones, and the beautiful person she has become. Moments like these pull at my heartstrings in the best way and remind me just how fast time flies.

Seeing her so happy and so deeply loved makes my heart full. Her fiancé is everything I could have hoped for — kind, supportive, and someone who truly cherishes her and it means the world to watch them begin this new chapter together.

Being trusted to capture such a meaningful moment wasn’t just a photography session… it was a memory I’ll hold onto forever.

Congratulations to you both — I love you so much and cannot wait to watch your story continue to unfold. Joelle Le Page Riley Lavoie
