A couple of years ago, Morgan asked me to have a fun session to celebrate their 5th year anniversary as a couple. She told me they are HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS! How cool is that?  So, in 2017, I did my first State Fair session with them. They were so fun, and I thoroughly enjoyed our time together and getting to know them. Then a little less than a year later, I heard about their engagement & got an opportunity to photograph another BIG moment in their lives. So, a few weeks ago, I had the privilege of photographing Mr. and Mrs. Ratiano's wedding day. Their classic Southern Plantation Wedding was simply BEAUTIFUL and SWEET as Morgan and Hayden have always been. I was absolutely thrilled to document every moment of the day. Here are some of the highlights of the wedding day. Congratulations again, Mr. and Mrs. Ratiano!

There are SO MANY photos to share, and I can't wait to finish editing their gallery to show all of them. Thinking about how much they would treasure these memories for the rest of their lives makes my job SO REWARDING!! Being a photographer is AMAZING, and I'm thankful that God has given me this talent. To God be the glory!
