With Love & Embers

With Love & Embers We believe: In choosing the road less traveled. In early morning walks in the woods to catch the sun You are a poem. You are a song. Love is an Adventure.

The bravest kind of poem ever written with lines about adventures and broken bones and two people schnuggled into one sleeping bag under a giant desert sky. The sweetest kind of song ever heard with a beginning that makes you dance in your chair and a harmony that has you reaching out to hold his hand, and squeeze a little tighter. You believe in the beauty of exploring, and embrace the ridiculous

, incredible mishaps that come with living a life authentic. You are a love caught on fire, embers burning warm and sparks dancing up to the moon. And we are so happy you’ve found your way to us. Not a Vacation. And that’s actually awesome! Because while sipping tropical drinks under swaying palm trees seems great, we are all about a life well lived. We are here to trek mountains and talk to strangers and get completely lost on winding dirt roads, on purpose. We’re here for the skinned knees and climbing tangled trees and telling epic stories around campfires with fingers sticky with s’mores. Your wedding is a celebration of your adventure. You made it through the highs and the lows and forks in the roads and here you are, together. We promise to capture your wedding not only in honor of this moment in time, but with sincere appreciation for all of the moments that brought you here; the cinders still glowing. This is your story. This is your adventure. We are here to capture it, with love and embers.

It’s no secret that 2020 was a year, it took all of us by storm. Many, like us, took time to re-evaluate their lives, how they spend their time, what they do for a living, and what makes them truly happy. Literally, we all looked at everything with a magnifying glass.



Last year was hard, it’s been hard personally on me emotionally, mentally, and physically. I’ve thought about my future (our future) in a way that honestly I never thought I would. It made me take a hard look at what I actually need in my life, and even more at what I no longer need.



With that, we’ve decided to make a really difficult decision. This choice has not been made lightly, and it’s been made with both of our needs and wants in mind. We’ve taken everything in our lives into consideration and with that we’ve decided to step away from With Love & Embers.



It’s been a crazy amazing ride, one we are so grateful to have had. A ride we will look back on fondly and with so much love in our hearts, but we’ve also sacrificed so much and given so much of ourselves to this business that we no longer feel we can. So after 2021, we will no longer be taking on any weddings, period. No exceptions, even postponements. We’ve had to put our lives on hold for a year now and we can no longer do it for our own mental health. We had goals to be slowing down last year, but with Covid we had to shift our plans to make sure our couples were fully taken care of and felt  loved during such a hard time. We’ve given everything we’ve got to accommodate and now we need to focus on ourselves, our needs, and our growing family. Putting ourselves first has never been a priority when it’s come to our business and we’re ready to change that.



We just wanted to say thank you to everyone for their love and support. It’s hard to believe that we are ending this chapter in our lives, but we are excited for what the future will hold for us. We will most likely not be posting on this account. For now, we have no plans in place and are just going to listen to our own needs and the universe. Feel free to follow our lives from here on my personal account: ❤️

Today feels like there is a darkness that’s been lifted, and finally some positivity, hopefulness, and light are starting to shine through! Congratulations to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris!!! I’m so proud to see a female Vice President take office!!! Here’s to a more caring, empathetic, and compassionate leader during a time when we need it most!

Ps. I think we should all send a s**t load of smudge sticks to the White House so they can cleanse all of that negative energy away ✌🏼

2020 was an intense year, but one positive thing came out of it for us, our rainbow baby!!! It’s been a difficult journey but we cannot wait to welcome our little one into the world in July. An adventure we are both excited and terrified to go on, but sure to be our greatest one yet!

This is just a friendly reminder to get the f**k out of your own head! It’s an easy place to get lost in, thoughts whirling around of self doubt and negativity. It can be a dark, lonely place, and with how 2020 is shaping up it can be an even darker place. Remember you’re a light that this world needs, and it’s all only temporary no matter how bad it feels. You are also not alone and everyone... I mean everyone (no matter how perfect their social media looks) has those moments of doubt and self criticism. You got this 🖤

We will never, EVER pass up a wooded elopement with some waterfalls (unless we are booked of course 😅). Any couple who is willing to climb over logs, down muddy hills, get into the water, and experience their love surrounded by nature is our kind of couple! 🖤 @ Ricketts Glen State Park

I cannot put into words just how much I adore these two! Not only are they incredible humans and so genuine, but they are fighters for the greater good. Throughout the past months they’ve been protesting and being the light that this world needs, representing the change that as a nation we need to make. Fighting for equality and ending the violence. We are incredibly proud to call them one of our couples and so humbled that they gave us the opportunity to document this magical day for them. Also, HOW ADORABLE ARE THEY?!? Nothing makes me smile more than some open mouths laughs and end of the aisle shenanigans 🖤 @ Promise Ridge

I just wanted to take this moment to thank everyone who has reached out to us with your thoughts, love, journies, and kindness.

The past almost month has not been easy; that is for sure, and I've fallen upon some pretty dark moments. There have been days (weeks) when I've just cried, where it's been hard to get out of bed, where I cannot even find the energy to push through. I've had so many incredible women reach out to me with their own stories of loss and their journies through pain to find their way back to a place of peace. Though let's face it, that pain is always lingering. I'm still working through all of the messages; I apologize for not responding; it's just been tough to find my groove and even more to bring myself to get back on social media. All of the algorithms seem to find a sick joke to show me all of the ads for babies and families, and though I'm working through that pain, it still stings and is a daily reminder. There needs to be a way to turn that s**t off for a moment, am I right?

I'm happy that sharing our story has helped others, has made others feel less alone and less isolated. Those who have shared their stories with me/us have done the same, and I am forever grateful for every one of you. My heart is with all of you, and I cannot say thank you enough to everyone. Though admittedly I am not the best with our DMs (I tend to get a bit overwhelmed until I find the energy to get through them) I am always here to talk if anyone needs an ear. I will do my best to be there for you and help those feelings of isolation and sadness. What has helped me is trying to find some peace that the universe has a plan, even if I do not understand it. To explore things in my life that I have put off, like gardening and buying plants... LOTS OF PLANTS. But most of all, I am just trying to find the space where I am ok with what I am feeling and expressing those feelings more openly, even if they do not make sense. I'm only human, and I am just doing the best I can, and that is all that I can do. So I'm going to try not to be so hard on myself, and you should do the same, giving yourself some grace is such an essential part of life. 🖤
