Family is extremely important to Neil and myself. It’s why we live where we live; it’s why I do what I do. I get to capture the beginning and the continuing of families. So when Neil’s cousin gets engaged and doesn’t hesitate as to whom she hires as her wedding photographer, it means the world to me!

Neil and I also related to Whitney, Neil’s cousin, and her fiancé Adam in more than the family sense… they too were high school sweethearts! Hanging out with them this past Saturday and seeing them together just made my heart smile. There is something so comfortable about high school sweethearts. They’ve gone through so much together, grown so much together, and not only have found themselves but have relearned how to love the new persons they’ve become. It’s a beautiful thing!
