Authentic couples are our jam. // throwback to this summer with S+R - who didn’t want just pictures at sunset- they wanted their ceremony right at sunset. True individualist doing what they want for their moment and we’re HERE for it.

Donny officiated S+R’s ceremony and assisted them with a unique handfast knot, where they held hands as they said their vows (vs the knot being tied after, how it’s traditionally done). It allowed them to be physically connected in the emotional moment of officially becoming married. Between saying their vows, the sun dipping over the mountain range and being cliffside overlooking the valley; it was hard to not feel a true sense of fate during their ceremony. It was so beautiful.

And because of the timing, S+R’s first kiss as a married couple happened *right* as the sun was cresting behind them. It was pure magic in the most authentic form.✨

And then R picked up S, which caught us all by surprise and seeing the joy on S’s face was amazing. It’s moments like these, especially ceremonies, where having two photographers are so essential. While I was capturing the scene, Allen was able to capture their reactions and emotion from a totally different angle, not missing a second of this beautiful moment and the sun cresting behind them.

There’s a lot of 2020 we would still love to rewind back to. Wedding days are definitely some of them🧡

S T O P. S T O P. S T O P. Pause right now and

S T O P. S T O P. S T O P.

Pause right now and close your eyes.
Take a deep breathe and inhale.
Now release it.
Repeat 3x.

Whatever you’re feeling— is valid.

Wherever you’re at on your journey—is exactly where you’re suppose to be.

You are love.

🌿s a g e h e r e - reminding us all that when we feel out of control, confused and emotions all over the place —- we can always come to center by simply B R E A T H I NG 💨

Our worlds are experiencing a gamut of emotion. All feelings are valid. It’s a
{ { f u c k i n g c h a o t i c } } time of long overdue transitions to heal a failed system, rooted in white supremacy and racism, and folks that fail/refuse/scared to acknowledge that as our factual history.
It’s c h a o s.

But our democracy is on it’s own journey...and regardless of how we feel about it, it is where it is right now for a rEaSoN and p u r p o s e.

🌿Sage advice encourages to focus on what matters most: the PRESENT moment and putting energy into being our best selves. The self WE want to show up, the self that feels GOOD, the self that you know will help shape the world we want to live in.

🌿S a g e S t r e s s T i p s :

🌿Find solitude and rest from media.
🌿 Breathe or mediate when you need to clear your mind or feel overwhelmed.
🌿If you’re finding yourself frustrated from not understanding, seek to learn. Don’t bury that feeling.
🌿Be easy on yourself and let the feelings flow. Grow from them. Then release them.
🌿Create time for fun.
🌿Choose love. Because #lovewins , always.
