It goes without saying that this year was unlike any other. Much to my surprise, this year was the biggest year yet for my business in terms of couples served, miles driven and galleries delivered! While quarantining alone in my apartment and going two months without even touching my camera, I could not imagine ending the year with so many wonderful memories to look back on. After witnessing so many people propose to their person, couples celebrate their engagements, and commit their lives to each other, I realized 2020 showed us what really matters: each other. I am so incredibly grateful to be a witness to the love of so many people during a dark time. So, instead of trying to immediately forget this year, I want to take a few minutes to celebrate some of my favorite moments of love and happiness in 2020.
