As I sit down to write this blog post, I am filled with excitement and joy for my sister in law, Kelsey Grace, who is getting married in just a few short weeks. I have only known Kelsey for a short amount of time, but she has quickly become a very important person to me. Now, I have two sisters and she is my baby boy’s auntie!

And as we prepare to celebrate her upcoming wedding to Jake in beautiful St. Augustine, Florida, my husband and I cannot help but feel all of the happiness for the two of them. One of the things I am most looking forward to is photographing Kelsey and Jake's wedding on the beach (their favorite place!) I know that the location will be stunning, but I also know that Kelsey herself will be absolutely breathtaking. She has a natural beauty and radiance that shines through, and I have no doubt that she will be a stunning bride. But more than that, I know that Kelsey and Jake's love for each other is genuine and deep, and that their wedding day will be a beautiful reflection of that.

Cannot wait to capture all of the happy tears and dance moves!

Thinking back on Kelsey's bridal shower, there are many fond memories. I think the photos say it all. Her family and friends know how to throw a beautiful event! The dessert bar, mimosa bar, and flower bouquet making station were all such thoughtful and unique touches that made the day feel truly special. And it was such a joy to meet so many of Kelsey's close family and friends, as well as many of her lovely bridesmaids.

Congratulations, Kelsey and Jake!

We can't wait to see all the amazing things that your future holds and to celebrate you two so, so soon!
