I’ve always been a firm believer that you attract what you put out in the world. This has been my motto since I started my photography business almost nine years ago, and I feel like through that belief I have been so lucky to attract such amazing human beings into my life. Throughout the years, I have witnessed nearly 200 couples commit their lives to one another, and each one holds such a special place in my heart. Each one I have connected with because I was putting something out there into the world they resonated with them. Kayla & Cory are no exception to that.

Jessica! Attitude is altitude, and you have captured this in your powerful photo essay. Welcome to the club you never wanted or expected join. I am two months ahead of you with a similar ankle break injury. Sure, it hijacked my life, but I’m fighting back, as you are! I agree with the benefit of hitting ‘pause’ to be reflective and purposeful. I am so grateful for my incredible husband and our awesome friends who stepped up to say: “We’re here to help,” and meant it through generous actions big and small. I will never take the little things for granted — walking, kneeling, climbing stairs and even putting on a shoe other than my Velcro Chuck Taylors — and I will be more empathetic to those with life challenges, even when I thought I already was. Physical therapy is now my job one, and I better understand the connection between exercise and mental wellness more than my pre-injury tennis, dog hiking and exercise had taught me. This derailed a lot of life plans, we missed out on numerous concerts, pro sports games, festivals and other fun events. We postponed a lot. But that is going to change. As it is for you. Your words and gorgeous pictures will inspire many. Thank you and best wishes.
Hope all goes well for you .
