The past year has been full ups and downs but COVID-19 was not going to stop Andrew and Leana from getting married! These two are very close friends of ours and when they started planning their wedding, I was eagerly counting down the days with them. Unfortunately, the Coronavirus had other plans for 2020 and all other expectations were soon modified. Then modified plans were modified again, and again. As lock downs and closures went into full effect, the wedding plans changed daily. What started as a beach wedding with A reception right off the sand, almost became a small wedding in our own backyard. Since most of the couple’s family and guests were from out of the town, the travel ban was the last tipping point. The final iteration became an intimate ceremony in our backyard. With the five of us present and many more watching online, Andrew and Leana committed themselves to each other and shared their love with those gathered to witness this significant moment. While there was no longer a big reception or photo op exit, their love for each other remains tremendous. I feel so lucky to have captured and hosted such a beautiful occasion.
