Tyler and Morgan were married at Morgan’s childhood church, St. Rose Catholic Church in her hometown of Carlisle, Arkansas.

I didn’t grow up in the town of Carlisle, but I did marry into it.  And one of the first families that I got to know was the Schafers.   In our small farming community, generational farming families all know one another especially when our children were the same age.  Oh and Morgan’e mother taught my kids in elementary school so growing up in a small community helps to solidify those relationships.

I can’t tell you how amazing it feels to have a bride and her family trust the “local” girl to capture such a special day not only once but twice for them.  I captured Morgan’s sister Emily’s wedding last February and it was such an honor that they asked me again.

The day turned out to be a beautiful October fall day spent with many family and friends from all over the county.  After a beautiful ceremony at the church that was filled past capacity, the bridal party and family were led to an extra large tent for the reception that had been set up on the church grounds.  The entire day was very relaxed and joyful just the way Morgan and Tyler both are.  I believe the day was a reflection of their love for each other and their families.

Thank you both for trusting me and asking me to be a part of such an amazing day!
