What Kylee said! As a person older than you who chose not to marry or have kids but still has a happy partnership, I get all of what you said and am happy for you!
Thanks Heather, that means a lot. I love the affirmation when I share things like this from others who have navigated these questions, it's a large part of why I share, very grateful.
as someone in a 10-year partnership you spoke to my same experience and internal tensions so clearly! it’s a strange thing to balance the disdain for an institution and also see the value in it, especially as a form of care. thanks for sharing as always 💖 & enjoy your celebration!
Thank you Kylee! I am glad my words resonated, and its such a fraught thing to navigate! Thank you for sharing that you have had a similar discussion with yourself.
Congratulations to you and Dave, Lindsay! Our wedding was 8 of us, including myself and Jason (and we also did lunch at a chinese restaurant after haha) so I definitely relate to a lot of what you said.
Love the film shots! I have 6 rolls to drop off at our local lab🫣. Want to try portra next. There’s something so nice about stopping to notice with a film camera. Feels very intentional and special to capture my family in that way.
I love this, that lunch sounds perfect and delicious. I think we will be 8 with me and dave! What film have you been using?! I am testing portra 400 rn, but I am not sure there's as much light as I might need for it. Ill be putting the portra 800 back to work for sure.
I’m testing Ektar 100 now and have Kodak gold and Ultramax to drop off plus one black and white roll. I’ll get a roll of portra when I go to drop off for sure cause these pics are dreamy.
I loved this one and congratulations! I'm glad you're taking a moment to celebrate your love and partnership, even though marriage is a tricky concept in so many ways.
Happy News!! How amazing that you made this decision with intention. And great joy.
The planning -- the photos, the flowers, and, oh, to be a passenger on that bus with the almost bride and groom!! Like your art: beautiful, flowing, joyful. All the best to you.🌹

8 is the magic number.
