Collin & Madelyn's Wedding at White Birch Wedding Barn

Some weddings stay with you forever, and Madelyn & Collin’s day is one I will carry with me always.

This wedding was extra special in a way that feels almost impossible to put into words. I was there the day Madelyn was born. I’ve photographed her through so many seasons of life — from her pre-teen years to milestones in between — and to now stand behind my camera on her wedding day was incredibly full-circle. Adding to that, her mom is one of my closest friends, which made the entire day feel even more personal and meaningful. This wasn’t just another wedding; it was family, history, and love all woven together.

From the very beginning of the day, there was a feeling of genuine joy. One of the most beautiful parts of Madelyn & Collin’s wedding day was the deep importance of family. Their families weren’t just present — they were truly connected and fully invested in every moment. The love, support, and pride surrounding them was unmistakable, from quiet, emotional exchanges to joyful celebrations shared together. The strong family foundation added so much meaning to the day and was reflected in every embrace, every tear, and every moment of togetherness.

Madelyn & Collin were surrounded by a group of people who truly love them — the kind of friends and family who laugh easily, celebrate loudly, and show up fully. You could feel how happy everyone was for them, and that kind of energy makes all the difference. It shows in every photo: the smiles are real, the laughter is unfiltered, and the moments are completely authentic.

Madelyn & Collin’s wedding day was a perfect reflection of who they are — joyful, loving, and deeply connected to the people around them. Being trusted to document such an important chapter in Madelyn’s life, after witnessing so many others, is an honor I don’t take lightly.

This day was beautiful, meaningful, and full of heart — and I’m so grateful to have been there to capture it.
