This was a pretty special and unique opportunity for me, as I was finally able to meet Nick, who is my 2nd cousin. I learned a few years back that my cousin had a baby early on in her life and decided to give the baby up for adoption.  As the amazing story would go, they later met when he was about 18 and they have an awesome relationship with each other as well as with his adoptive parents. We became friends over Facebook years ago, but I had no idea he had been following my work. It was such an honor when he reached out after getting engaged to Karilyn to ask if I would be their photographer. It was a great time hanging out and shooting in Charleston and catching up over dinner afterwards.

Nick and Karilyn – thanks so much for allowing me to serve you during this season of your lives and can’t wait to celebrate with you in November!
