Stephen and Rachael had the most intimate Christmas Eve morning wedding in a 246 year old church. It was so special to be a part of and was the perfect way to wrap up my 2016 work year! I’m such a fan of these two.

Jamil and Sara’s very cold and misty hill country wedding. Despite it, they were all smiles and happy tears. These two were so dang excited to marry each other that I think they would’ve done it in a hurricane and it would’ve been just as gorgeous.

Two weeks after we moved away from Georgia I flew back to Georgia to shoot Lee and Christine’s brunch wedding at JCT.

I knew I’d love Jarryd and Lea’s wedding solely based on her inquiry. She reminded me that we’d met at after a Penny and Sparrow concert where we drank in a group of mutual friends at the glorious Brick Store Pub in Decatur, GA. She ended the email by saying “I’m marrying a wonderful, one-legged, Paralympian man in Athens, Georgia in October 2016.” I had to be there.

Jarryd represented the U.S. in Rio in the 2016 Olympics and Lea is a teacher with Teach For America. Power couple, much? They’re just as kind as they are passionate and it was truly such a joy to witness their marriage. After their wedding, I shared a king bed with two friends in Athens and then woke up and started my drive to Texas. Kind an amazing last night in Georgia if I do say so myself.

I will never forget my first long conversation with Megan a few years ago when Mark and I were their Intern Coordinators at SharpTop Cove. Mark asked everyone what some of their dreams in life were. Megan, with no hesitation, said “to fill all the cracks in the world with beads and buttons.” I fell in love with her right then and there. She’s so oddly unique that you can’t not be crazy about her. Tripp struck gold, as did she. He’s kind and caring and compliments her wonderfully. You’re fantastic together, Mazzuccos! We’re big fans.

One of Megan’s dreams for her wedding day was to get ready in an Airstream. Of course it was, and of course she made it happen. This thing was empty when it was delivered to Tripp’s grandparent’s home and she decked it out with furniture from The Nester in true Megan fashion.
