As a documentary wedding photographer, one of the most important parts of my clients’ experience is helping my couples really capitalize on my documentary-style approach. The Anderly’s were such a great example of how creative, unique ideas can totally transform how you spend your first moments together as newlyweds.

The day Peggy and Christian said their ‘I do’s’ was easily a documentary-style wedding photographer’s dream come true. From the magical setting of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the way the sunlight illuminated the newlyweds’ every touch and turn, each part of the day was about capturing what was unfolding right before our very eyes.

As a COVID bride myself who replanned her wedding three times and ultimately moved to an intimate, 50 guest wedding: I have a special place in my heart for small wedding gatherings. Recently, I was able to relive some of this small wedding magic through the honor of documenting Megan and Evan’s stunning vow exchange in Evergreen, Colorado.

Picture this- it’s your wedding day in Cedar Rapids, IA. You’re getting married at the perfect industrial downtown venue with never-ending unique spots to take photos.
