Kelli+Cody, JJ+Megan :: Double Wedding!

We've heard some great stories over the years of working with couples... how they met, how he proposed, that sort of thing.... and found out that from skydiving, to cooking classes, to learning a new language, to traveling the world, there is nothing that will stop love when it's on a mission!  These stories are where we take our inspiration as photographers. True art comes from the soul, and when we have a bit of a storyboard to go off of, that's when we feel we can really shine.


We've been so blessed to get to know these two sisters, Kelli and Megan, and their fiancé's, over the past year or so.  Those of you who follow our work have come to know Kelli + Cody as "The Fareway Couple", in reference to how they met at the meat counter of a grocery store, as well as the location for their engagement photo shoot with us.  Megan and Jarvis met at a local fair called Sauerkraut Days when they were 16, and as each couple relived their story to the guests at their reception, you could still hear and feel the emotion that is tied to those memories as if it were yesterday. 


"Kelli + Cody, Megan + JJ:  We are so fortunate to have been a part of your lives, and have enjoyed each and every visit with you, from consultations to your GP Movie Premiere.  You four have a wonderful bond with each other, and we consider it an honor that you would trust us to capture your wedding!  We enjoyed seeing the strong connection you all have with your family, and how you wove those connections into your wedding, through Grandpa's pick-up truck, the many pumpkins and more.  God has definitely had his hand in your life from your unique beginnings, and it will be great to see where He takes you from here!"

Kelli + Cody

Megan + Jarvis

Megan is a fan of horses, and one time when we were meeting with her and her sister, we asked if there would be a horse involved in the wedding.  Sadly, no, we were told, and we left it at that... until, we were moving from the house where Megan and Kelli got ready, to the park where we would do bridal party portraits.  We saw two gals riding their horses alongside the road, and if you know Jodi at all, there is no shame in asking anyone for anything when it comes to a bride!  As you can see below, the girls said yes, and Megan got her horse pictures!  It's a wedding day... anything can happen!

When Jarvis was a little kid he was the ring bearer in a wedding, and this little red firetruck was his motivation for going down the aisle.  Now, many years later, it showed up at his own wedding, and seemed fitting for their ring shots.
