About 365 days of marriage

I started this blog in April of 2011. At the time, Bret and I were wedding photographers and it was a way to share how marriage is more about the day to day and so much more than the wedding day itself. For about 5 years, I blogged about the joys and sorrows of the Christian walk, marriage, work, family and friends. I’ve blogged every day since a few weeks after I started. In May of 2015, we photographed our last wedding. Now, I have become passionate about simplicity, particularly in marriage, Christianity, business, travel and life. For a number of reasons, we have become minimalists. I’ve found that having simplicity makes life so much deeper, refreshing and joyful. I hope that this blog will help others see the benefits of living simply.

Today marks the 4 year anniversary of our dear friends Dan and Lizann! I had the honor of photographing their wedding with my brother. They are very special to us. Dan was actually the one who introduced Bret and I. If it wasn’t for him (and of course God’s hand), we wouldn’t have met. We love you guys! Many blessings on this wonderful day!

Day 767 – Bridget’s Headshot

Tonight, my dear friend Bridget of K&B Bridals and Event Planning stopped by. We grabbed dinner at Jason’s Deli (you know I make ANY excuse to go there!). We did a little editing of her wedding album. AND did a last minute photo shoot! She needed a headshot for her marketing. We were hoping we could use a picture already taken (I’m Bridget’s “life photographer”…every one of her Facebook profile pictures was taken by me!)….but, we really couldn’t find one. While Bridget and I were looking at things on the computer, Bret set up our studio kit in the living room.

I’m REALLY happy with the shot she picked!!

I’m guessing it will only take a week or so until it’s her profile picture. : )

I have known my husband for exactly 4 and a half years today. It has been quite the journey so far! A long distance relationship, a deployment, a cross country trip, wedding photography, jumping into our own small business (almost!), growing and changing. Bret, I love you more today than yesterday. I can’t imagine my life without you!


(this is from our honeymoon. We got to visit the Gunks and do a little rock climbing.)
