2021 Year In Review

December 27, 2021

I think that it is safe to say that 2021 and this decade will be one for the history books. It’s a strange sensation to be living in a time earmarked for history as it’s happening.

But what I do know is that love finds a way. And 2021 was all about reminding each other about what is truly important.

Year In Review

First off, I don’t know where I would be without the incredible couples who trusted me with their stories and chose to share parts of themselves with me. It is a monumental and humbling experience to be invited into people’s most vulnerable spaces to showcase the parts of themselves they want to remember forever.

I couldn’t have done any of it without these amazing couples. I am bursting with gratitude to each and every one of them for making 2021 my best year ever.
