Merry Christmas Eve, happy Hanukkah, Festivus and anything else you may be celebrating (or not celebrating) this holiday season! Whatever your beliefs, I hope that you are surrounded by warmth and love. Whether that is part of a large family gathering or at a Chinese restaurant with best friends. The end of the year always seems to bring with it reflections on the year (or years) prior and thoughts about how we got to where we are, what has happened to get us here and where we want to be in the future have a tendency to come to mind. My year had some loss but was overwhelmingly filled with joy…for which I am very grateful. Shooting weddings is more than a job for me. I really pour my heart and soul and every ounce of my energy into each of my couples. But they give me something back…the love I get to regularly experience every weekend keeps me going as my feet ache and my shoulders feel like they are detaching from my body with the weight of my gear. Actually it keeps me going in life. Gives me hope for the world when it sometimes seems bleak. I am so lucky you allow me to experience this with you…thank you! Jess and Dillon, I wish you many years filled with all of the love from this day. I have no doubt it will get you through tough times…you guys both have such big hearts. Hugs to you both! Now onto the good stuff!
The blog was messing with me and I’m having problems writing between the photos (wrapping up 2016 with a few technical difficulties) but I believe the photos will speak for themselves without me rambling on like usual. ;)
Merry Christmas Eve Jess and Dillon! May the years to come just keep getting better and better! With love, Liz + Mer
