I met Justin and Samantha when they came and were models for me at our Historic Farmhouse 14 styled shoot. They stole my heart with how genuine and kind they are. Not only as a couple but as two individuals. Samantha and I have been able to talk about raising our kids, and how we are doing our best to make the right choices for them. So when she let me know that Justin and her were moving but they didn’t want anyone else to be their photographer, I was beyond moved. They also planned the wedding here so they could have all their friends and family come to celebrate them.

They planned their wedding with many changes due to them planning to move states away. If you have ever planned a wedding then you know it is hard enough to do without having to plan a major life change at the same time. These two more than pulled it off though. When their families showed up, I immediately could tell how these two amazing humans became so wonderful. Their families immediately made me feel like I was a part of their tribe which is what you feel like when you’re around Samantha and Justin.

Watching them tear up as they had first looks with their parents was the absolute sweetest. Getting to listen to all the stories and how they have made an impact on those around them was just the icing on the cake. I know that they are going to be incredibly missed by everyone. What I do know is that they are bringing adventure, love, and genuine kindness wherever they go.

Justin and Samantha,

You guys are amazing parents and irreplaceable friends. I know you are starting a brand new adventure, but you have all the love and support. You have each other and your beautiful family so you have all that you need no matter where you go. I wish you both ALL the best!
