From meeting in college, to dating, to changing life plans for each other, and to finally getting married, Amy & Justin have had a long road to this moment. It could not have been more fitting for them to make the trip to Amy's family home in Oahu to have the ceremony. Surrounded by only their closest friends and family who have been there throughout the whole journey, the weekend was filled with so many fun events, intimate moments, and big celebrations. It could not have been more perfect. It was such an incredible honor to not just meet and spend the weekend with Amy & Justin, but to have the opportunity to make the trip all the way out and be trusted to capture all the details and stories of the weekend.

If you were to google "marry your best friend" the very first result should be a picture of Heather and Ben. I don't even know where to begin with these two. Have you ever met a couple that has been dating since high school and is both still so obsessed with each other? After watching this one, you'll know exactly what I mean. They truly are still best friends through and through and never seem to grow tired of each other. And you can see that their families agree.

I don't even know where to begin with these two. One of the most fun-loving, easy-going, and friendly couples I have ever had the pleasure of working with. And I'm not just saying that because they brought us all the way out to Cancun to shoot their wedding. I would have filmed their wedding no matter where it was.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: shooting a friend's wedding is the best. Knowing their story, their background, and having a back seat view to how they made it to their wedding day is huge. It allows me to tell a story in so much more depth than I normally would, which then allows me to go all out when putting it together. Knowing all of that background, Marlie and Christian's wedding was even more incredible than simply the surface of it.

After dealing with all of the trouble of planning and then postponing a wedding in 2020 all while preparing for a move to Alaska, both Emily and Gabriel concluded that they would be better off just keeping things small. And there's no better way to keep things small than having an elopement at home when you happen to live in one of the most beautiful places in the country!
