I'm truly having a hard time putting into words the amazing gift of capturing Jonnie + Emily's state-side wedding day. An Iowa girl + a boy from New Zealand met & fell in love in the country of Myanmar. A place they ended up because of their shared love of teaching & adventure. What a story.

Their day was sweet, slow, and full of joy. It included lots of joyful reunions & introductions, tons of laughing, a few skype calls from New Zealand, songs sung by the bride & groom, hours of non-stop dancing, lots of polaroids being snapped, and a beautiful covenant made between themselves and the Lord.

We can't tell you how much we loved being apart of this day. We are still amazed at the amount of joy + awe that filled this wedding day and how much adoration we have for this couple.

We hope this is a beautiful glimpse of their day! Enjoy!
