When two of my favorite things (photography + travel) are combined, magic happens. Add in an awesome bride and groom, and their even more amazing friends and family, you create something words can’t describe.

When my number one cheerleader and best friend, Ana (remember her?) emailed me and asked “Would you be interested in shooting a destination wedding?” my heart instantly did a flip. Under any other circumstances, there would have been absolutely no hesitation whatsoever. Who doesn’t dream of photographing on perfect sandy beaches with a pina colada in hand? Well, Ana knew something that most didn’t know at that point – I was newly pregnant, and would be traveling well into my third trimester if I were to be a part of Anya + Brody’s day.

And then I met them – to say it was love at first sight might be an understatement. Through this entire experience, Anya + Brody made Greg and I not only part of their day, but part of their lives. I am so happy to now call these two friends, and it is easy to see why so many of their closest family and friends chose to travel across the continent to celebrate with them. And we are so, so happy that we were there to witness and capture the moments of their day. It was perfect.
