One of the greatest joys we have in life is relationships. Kristina is one of the kindest and most amazing women I know, and I fully believe God brought us together nearly 7 years ago because He knew I needed friends like her in my life. Now one of my closest friends, I had the privilege of being a bridesmaid in her New Orleans wedding last fall. I have loved seeing her & Nathan’s relationship grow and having such an intimate seat to their wedding was an amazing privilege.

For my trip to New Orleans I decided to bring a mixed bag of film (Fuji 400H, Portra 400, BW 400CN) and a film camera to document the experience & couldn’t have been more happy I did. What a beautiful day it was & so filled with emotion. I cried happy tears watching Kristina walk down the aisle to her love. Nathan, I know you know this, but you are one lucky man. Tanner & I are beyond blessed to call you both friends!
