I'm Grace, aka photographer, wifey, mother, and someone who believes marriage is worth celebrating well. I am a happy camper when people feel seen, loved, and are known of their true worth. I am a nostalgic girly through and through. I will probably shed a tear or two on your wedding day, but don't worry - the tears won't smear my camera lens ;)
You can usually find with a warm cup of coffee in my hands, my Bible nearby, and my people close. I am a sucker for slow mornings, meaningful conversations, and random dance parties with my daughter!
Being a wife is my greatest honor and joy. That is why I cheer for marriages as loud as I do. Of course your photos will be as stunning as your wedding day, but I am also there to remind you to slow down.To hold hands, laugh with each other, be fully present with your best friend.
- Erika + Johnny
First look moments are my number fav on wedding days. I am mostly likely shedding a tear or two behind the camera. Something about the genuine love and anticipation just gets me! And remembering the first time my own husband say me in my wedding dress quick flashes into my own mind... I need to go grab a tissue now!
There's no sense in putting on a performance. Your wedding day should feel like YOU. The day will flow so easily if you are fully present, soaking in each moment and letting it unfold naturally.
What makes me cry even more than first look moments? All the family time of your wedding day. Everyone you love in the same room, hugging, laughing, the "don't make me cry in front of everyon!" Those tiny moments are so precious to me. They tell the story of your day in a way that nothing else can.
This is the heart of it all. The quiet hand squeezes, the way you look at each other when no one else is watching, the deep breath you take together before stepping into the next moment. I’m always watching for the in-between the love that doesn’t need direction, just permission to exist. When you trust me, you get to be fully present, and that’s when the most honest, beautiful moments unfold.
The excitement of the getting ready room. The way he looks the first time he sees you. The tear that rolls down your cheek. The way the people you love most are looking at you during vows, first dances, and toasts. The moment the officiant announces your new last name. Your friends on the dance floor. And so much more I don't have enough space!
