As Emily and her father slowly walked up the small hill, Fredy broke down into tears. After being together for four years, they’d finally arrived at this day. Between a pandemic and enormous job responsibilities, they planned an intimate celebration and took their vows in the backyard of Emily’s childhood home.

This was such a special shoot. Russell, Patti, and baby Jane were the perfect subjects last weekend when we visited the Cylburn Arboretum for their family session. My husband Patrick grew up with Russ’ younger brother Sam (their houses see into eachother’s kitchens) and I have been lucky enough to spend time with the entire Anderson crew since Pat and I started dating seven years ago.
