I still remember the day Kate called to tell me about the christmas gift Isaac had given her. He was a new guy she’d mentioned a couple times, but there was something in her voice that I’d never heard before that made me pause what I was doing to listen. And as she described it – a framed antique map of Sequoia National Park – I could tell this guy was different than all the rest. He “got” Kate. And while I had never met Isaac in person (I didn’t get that honor until a couple days before their wedding) I knew immediately: this guy was gonna go the distance.

Like all great love stories, Kate and Isaac’s is not without a legend’s share of deserts endured and canyons crossed. They’ve done life together; found each other to be strong and constant. Last month I had the privilege of seeing them stand in the mountains, vowing to be together everlasting as the rocks that surrounded them. It was a weekend of  laughter & love, new friends, great food & hikes in the mountains.

Thank you, Kate & Isaac. Documenting the celebration of your life & love was the best thing evah!
