1423 Events

I love being given the time to make a beautiful staircase portrait from above. It's always worth the effort!!

After I'd locked down my composition, my good friend (and second shooter for the day) Pete Redel pops into the stairwell and says, "do you want to add bubbles?"

You always say yes to bubbles.

Not pictured: Pete sprinting up the spiral staircase with his bubble gun to help me get the perfect shot.

Also not pictured: every guest who walked onto the staircase to see where all the bubbles were coming from. 🤣

Shelby & Ryan, your wedding day was spectacular, and this shot was just the cherry on top!!

So thrilled to share that it's received a very esteemed Fearless Award! Thanks to all the judges in Collection 95 for the recognition!

2025 brought both joy and heartbreak. We celebrated many beautiful moments, and we also felt deep loss with the passing of not only a talented planner, but a dear friend.

It was a year of ups and downs, made meaningful by the amazing couples and vendors who shared it with us. Here’s to moving forward with gratitude and hope 🤍

And to our 2026 couples~ let’s get ready to party! 🥂⭐️✌️
