Amazing Life Manifesto, Dreaming  //  

Ohh happy day! It is 2016! How crazy is that?!?! ;) So exciting to start a New Year with new beginnings!

For all of you who recently got engaged… CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You are embarking on one of the most AMAZING journeys of your life together! We could not be more excited for you!!!

Please let us know if we can help you all in any way! Yes, we are wedding photographers and would LOVE to meet your wedding photography needs. However, we are also BIG believers of LOVE and would love to help you start your marriage on an AMAZING track! ;) Check out our non-profit site at www.amazinglifetogether.com for more details on that!

In the meantime, we have asked our AMAZING Liz and Ryan couples from 2015 to reflect back on their wedding and share some of their feedback and lessons learned from their own weddings! It is our hope that their thoughts shared through a series of blog posts in the next few weeks will help you all as you plan for the first day of your AMAZING marriage together! ;)

Here’s to an AMAZING 2016! Let’s make it one that is overflowing with LOVE!

 

 

We are on an Amazing Marriage Adventure!

Dreaming, Our Dreams  //  

We are currently on an Adventure! A 50 state, follow-your-heart, kind of adventure! In September of 2014, we started a non-profit (Amazing Life Together) out of a dream to inspire all couples to live a happy, healthy, and Amazing Life Together! As wedding photographers, we so often see that there is so much hype surrounding a wedding day, but so little hype surrounding the marriage! We want to change that! ;) We want to provide inspiration that excites people and fires couples up to make their wedding day just the first very special day of the rest of their AMAZING lives together!

This year, we are traveling to all 50 states in an effort to document and share real married couples love stories! We are sharing photos, videos, and advice/lessons we have learned from the AMAZING couples we meet at www.amazinglifetogether.com and on Instagram at instagram.com/AmzLifeTogether! We are also sharing about the behind the scenes of the Amazing Marriage Adventure! Please be sure to follow along and help us spread the love!

*We are still photographing weddings! ;) We actually have quite a few weddings this year that are taking us all over the map! (Baltimore, Annapolis, Illinois, Italy, Rhode Island, etc.!) This is definitely the year of travel for us! ;) If you are interested in having us document your incredibly special wedding day, please send us a note! We are excited to hear from you!

Announcing The AMAZING Marriage Adventure

Dream Big  //  

 

Starting this December with a trip to Malawi, Africa to help build a school, we are planning a year-long Adventure to explore all 50 states and 9 different countries.

Our goal is to learn what AMAZING marriages look like in different cities, states, countries, and cultures. Along the way, we will document our journey and what we learn from each couple, to share with as many people as possible! We will be “trading in” our house in Baltimore to live in a small RV. The RV will take us through the contiguous United States and Canada with excursions outside the RV to Hawaii, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, St. Lucia, and Africa!

Read the full announcement for the AMAZING Marriage Adventure here. 

Dreams come true! We are photographing a wedding in Italy!

Dreaming  //  

One of the MANY things we love most about our job is the ability to travel and explore new places together. We have shared this story before, but when we started our photography business, we dreamed it would provide a side pot of money that would help us explore the world. Today, we are so grateful to say that our photography business gives us an excuse to travel and see this world! ;) Our couples take us to the most AMAZING places and share their favorite hidden gems with us! ;) This past weekend, we explored Fire Island (a tiny super quaint island off of Long Island) for Katie and Ben’s wedding weekend and we cannot wait to share this beautiful place along with this AMAZING couple with you all soon! ;)

In the meantime, there is more…

One of the other main reasons we LOVE our jobs is that it provides an opportunity to dream. We dream out loud often and share those dreams on this very blog & over at AMAZING Life Together too (In fact, we just did a post about this in the AMAZING Life Together 30 Day Challenge!)! One of the dreams we have shared in the past is our dream to photograph a wedding in Italy! Well friends, we could not be more excited to share the news that we will be photographing a wedding in Puglia, Italy next May! ;) Dreams come true, friends!!! So please, keep dreaming! ;) What is even more exciting is that the wedding we will be photographing is the wedding for this incredibly AMAZING couple! Meet Casey and Alex:

I am really not kidding when I say I feel like Casey is my soul sister! ;) I just happened to be responding to emails at the time she emailed us inquiring about engagement photos. When she shared the news that she and Alex were planning a wedding in Italy, I pretty much poured my heart out to her in an email! ;) I shared our dream of photographing a wedding in Italy and after about 10 emails back and forth in a matter of about 10 minutes, we were ready to leave for Italy with them the next day! ;) Casey and Alex have this incredibly adventurous spirit that inspires us! They are such an AMAZING couple and we could not be more excited to be able to document this AMAZING adventure in their lives!!! Casey and Alex, thank you for helping to make our dream come true!!!
