San Juan Capistrano, CA Wedding at The McLaughlin Residence

Embracing Serendipity: A Journey from 2015 to 2023

As we revisit this unforgettable story in 2023, we can't help but marvel at the serendipitous journey that brought us these two incredible friends. In this digital age, the internet continues to amaze us in unexpected ways. Drew, now a dear friend, stumbled upon our work while exploring Pinterest (perhaps for the first time ever) from the lush jungles of Peru, where he and Emily's love story began.

From the very first email exchange, it was evident that we had found our kindred spirits! We arranged an engagement session during their visit to St. Louis, and the bond was instant. Last month, we had the joy of reuniting with them in Southern California to celebrate their wedding day. Little did we know that this beautiful connection would grow even stronger - they now live just 10 minutes away from us!

One of the most rewarding aspects of our profession is the lasting friendships we forge along the way. Our hearts swell with gratitude for every couple who has entrusted us to share their love story.

Chandler + Kylie // 30a Beach House Wedding

What a dreamy day on the beach! I’m sure we’re a bit partial because we got married on the beach, but we just think it’s the best. We so enjoyed spending the day celebrating Kylie and Chandler along with their closest friends and family on the Emerald Coast. I absolutely LOVED the muted champagne color pallet Kylie picked out against the bright turquoise water. Ugh, so much inspiration! Honestly can’t think of a more idyllic place to have a wedding than our stunning Florida beaches!

Brent + Kiersten // Epic Iceland Elopement

This is one of those trips we’ll remember for a lifetime. This was the first time we traveled to Iceland in the Winter and, wow, was it spectacular. We spent multiple days parading through the coastlands with Brent and Kiersten, shooting until our fingers were numb. The scenery was obviously breathtakingly beautiful, but honestly what made the trip so unforgettable was this crazy, fun-loving couple. They inspire us so much and we can’t wait for another adventure with them someday!
