When Adam and Miranda told us they were choosing their wedding date around our availability, we KNEW we wanted to shoot their wedding and we’re SO GLAD we were given the chance to!!  Not only are they’re two of the most thoughtful, generous, hard working, genuine, bubbly, compassionate, down to earth, and completely in love couples we’ve ever met, but they allowed themselves to be completely present the entire day; feeling every single moment to it’s fullest, which made us sooooo happy as their photographers!   No detail was left unthought of and no moment occurred that wasn’t backed with intention and purpose!  They cried and laughed and danced to their heart’s content with 60 of their closest friends, at one of the prettiest weddings, filled with some of the most thoughtful and personalized decor!! It was their dream day and one we’ll NEVER forget!!
