So let me back up a bit. Back story always makes things more fun, right?! I met Layla when I was about 14 or 15 years old…..she was a dear friend to me,  and we had many good times together! As many do, we lost touch after high school and thanks to Facebook, we reconnected a few years ago. Thank goodness because I just love this girl! She is one of the most genuine women I know and I’m so grateful to have crossed paths again. When she asked me to photograph her wedding, I was honored and so excited.

This wedding was simple, elegant, cozy, joyful, full of friendship, comfortable and completely reflective of the love Layla and Andy share. I enjoyed every second! So let’s take a peek, shall we?

      

  

When I think about the emotions of a wedding, I obviously think of it from a grown up perspective. This tender girl, made me think of how much a day like this truly means. The impact on her life is big! 

Seeing her mom happy and getting married again….this is big stuff for an 8 year old!  

There was a lot of joy!

This beautiful, romantic, memorable day unfortunately had to come to a close….

Congratulations you two!

Andy and Layla –  I wish you many years of new traditions, love and friendship!
You deserve every happiness!
