What started at a consultation at my studio about a year and half ago continued at an engagement session at the end of 2011 finally culminated in December with Amber & Trey’s wonderful wintry wedding. I love people like Amber who are incredibly orderly and detailed and yet still able to relax and savor the significance of a an incredibly detailed wedding. And then there’s Trey, whose offbeat sense of humor kept things light-hearted and Jess and me entertained the whole day through.

It was the perfect end to an overwhelming year. 30 weddings (so many of which will soon be featured here on the blog) and the year I think I’ve grown most in becoming the photographer I’ve always wanted to be. Funny, though, because there’s no settling in an artistic profession like photography–so that growth just means a maturing perspective that has helped me realize that I will never be done growing.

Amber & Trey – I love you both. Here’s to hoping you two somehow end up living in Clinton like we daydreamed about on your wedding day. Hope to see you again soon!
