There was a warm breeze blowing by the ocean as they walked down to the beach, her in her coral dress and him with his hand in hers. As we crossed the sand, every head turned to notice the bright color beneath an even brighter smile. When we arrived at the shoreline, they settled into each other’s arms like it was second nature. You could feel their love and joy in the salty air, almost as if you could touch it. Her laughter mixing with the sound of the waves to create a beautiful song. I was about to raise my camera, when a man walked up beside me. He said, “I’ve been married 25 years, and mine started on a beach just like this”. In that moment I realized the magnitude of what I was capturing and what it would mean to this beautiful, young couple years from now.

Holly and Jacob, you two have only been married a couple years, but the love that you share for each other is so inspiring. I am so honored to be able to capture these beautiful moments in your life. A life that is only just now beginning. I cannot wait to watch your story unfold. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it.
