Ana & Ian | Washington County Courthouse Wedding

Courthouse weddings don't have to be drab, especially when your courthouse is beautiful (like the Washington County courthouse), you request an outside ceremony with the judge (I didn't even know you could do that, did you?!) or, when your bride and groom show up looking dapper as hell. Ian and Ana hired me for two hours and we made some magic together on a smoky, hot day in September. A huge wildfire nearby was burning and so the air smelled like a campfire and the light was softened with an orange hue. There were even ashes falling, dusting the men's coat jackets during the ceremony. I'm so happy for these two and so glad I got to spend time with them on their wedding day! Small weddings are the absolute best.

Peter + Richard | UK Wedding Anniversary

These guys are two of my favorite people on this planet. Hands down. I can't believe it was one year ago that I was in England, be-bopping around in their little car visiting one charming English town after another. More importantly I can't believe it was one year ago that I earned the title "International Photographer Extraordinaire to the Gays." Such an honor. But seriously, Happy Anniversary Peter and Richard. I can't wait until our next adventure!

2) Picking me up from the airport in London. The sign reads "International Photographer Extraordinaire." The "gay" bit was added later.

3) Peter, frantically on his way to get married, hammer in hand. I can't explain this one. It's just awesome.
