Micayla and Cameron

 

This elopement was the epitome of simplicity, sincerity, and sanctity…

It was a Thursday when Micayla called me and said, “Em, I think we’re going to do it this weekend.” They had planned a more elaborate day later in the spring with the entirety of their families, but with the onset of COVID and several health challenges, Micayla explained to me that they didn’t want to wait. They just wanted to be husband and wife.

As I packed my camera gear that Saturday morning, I thought to myself, ‘What a perfect day.’ I met them under a blue sky, surrounded by rolling hills, and they were accompanied by noone except their parents and pastor.

And that day, before God, they became one. It truly was such an incredible testament to the beauty of marriage in it of itself. No bells and whistles… just one man and one woman making a vow to love, to serve, and to cherish one another for a lifetime. <3
