Like a lot of couples this past spring, Kristen and Jim’s wedding day didn’t look exactly as planned. Their large ceremony and friend-filled reception may have been delayed for later this year, but on May 30th, they were going to become husband and wife – COVID-19 or not!!

Celebrating the start of their marriage alongside their closest family members was such an honor. I love that they will forever have these images and stories to share and am even more thankful for the gift of photography than ever before! Capturing their joy on this day for them to forever look back on and remember…just the best.

I know Kristen and Jim’s big celebration in September will be a night to remember, too, but I’m so thankful that they chose to not delay sharing their vows: the promise to build a beautiful life together — on that will be so much better, stronger, and more beautiful than any life they could imagine apart.

Congratulations, Kristen and Jim! You’re MARRIED!!
