Earlier this month I went to the On Purpose Workshop lead by Courtney of Courtney Smith Photography, and Jessica of Jessica Lauren Photography (pictured below)! This was such a great opportunity to hear from two amazing photographers who are seriously the sweetest gals ever! We also had a styled shoot with two beautiful humans, Alaina + Matthew, at Long Row Lavender (the most precious lavender farm around).

Daphne and Chris are high school sweethearts. They met through a mutual friend in home room… who would have thought that years later would wed?!

For their wedding, Daphne and Chris planned an intimate and laid-back celebration with their closest friends and family. Their ceremony was held at the gorgeous St. Benedict Church. After photos downtown, the celebrations continued at The Ivy Room. The amount of joy and laughter shared throughout this day was contagious. So incredibly thankful to have been apart of Daphne and Chris’s day. These two have such a deep and sweet love for one another, and it was such an honor to capture this highly anticipated day for them.
