Year 5 Our Anniversary

Tomorrow begins year 5 of marriage for us. How is that even possible?

This time 5 years ago I was getting ready to walk down the aisle and the song that played was “Feels Like Home” by Chantal Kreviazuk. The lyrics talk all about how you feel like home, and I’m not sure that there’s a better sentiment to explain how I feel with you, babe. Although, I do think I ruined it a bit when I basically sprinted down the aisle towards you dragging my parents along.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In those 5 years, we’ve visited 4 countries, had 3 cars, lived in 2 homes, cared for 2 pups…

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

…but in all the numbers (and all the things that I missed) my favorite is that there’s only one us!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s no one else who understands me as well as you do.
There’s no one else who knows all the little things that make me mad and only *selectively* chooses to push them.
There’s no one else that makes me laugh like you do.
There’s no one else that makes my dreams come to life like you.
There’s no one else who makes me feel at home like you do.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5 years later, the adventure continues ?

Wife, mama, wielder of light & joy, and capturer of moments.  I thrive off of conversation and genuine connection.  In between wrangling our kiddos, and hanging my husband, you'll find me dreaming up my next idea or creative endeavour.  It's these things that culminate to give my imagery a warmth and joy to them - the greatest compliment I could receive.

I'M LAUREN

THE JOURNAL

Lauren grew up spending her summers at the shore, and when she and Nick got together, she couldn't help but introduce him, too!  Their session in New Jersey was filled with gorgeous light, sweet smiles, and so much love & laughter.

Jersey Shore Engagement 

Connor and Alli's wedding celebration was full of lush florals, gorgeous details, and a whole lot of joy.  Their first look was one of the most sacred moments I've witness on a wedding day... filled with so much delight and love!

Stone Tower Winery Wedding

One of my greatest inspirations comes from exploring and the California coast fulfills that wanderlust like nothing else.  Anytime I have rolling hills and oceanside views, I'm in heaven.

She's the ultimate hypewoman. I was pretty nervous about being photographed and Lauren made everything fun and flexible. Honestly, I can't imagine the day without her and her team. They were wonderful and hearing from Lauren was always a genuine delight.
