Tiffany Searle: Literally an angel from above.

I have sat here staring at my screen for what feels like eons. Trying to compose words of magic to describe this little girl. But I can't do it. Words are not adequate at this time.  Only the smiles that grace these photographs can begin to help you understand her impact on the world and the perfection of God.

Tiff passed away on Monday. You can read more about this angel from above here.

 
 

 
 
 
 
 
When we took these pictures, Tiff was about 25 lbs. Her hands are so tiny.

Austin + Rochelle: Wedding

This wedding was an experience of beauty, joy, and emotion.  Of any bride I've had, I connected with her on a level that is more intense and beautiful than I think I ever want to connect with another bride. 

About six months ago, Rochelle's mom passed away after a ferocious fight of cancer. She went to my same H.S. and knew of my tragedy my junior year. With this common connection we both knew we needed each other. She needed me to capture the emotion and the happiness of the day, and I? I needed her to remember how when loved ones leave this earth they are not gone forever, only temporarily missing. 

  
 
 







 

 


this is so serene to me...


After the temple we went to the Bungalow. I had never been there before, but I must say I totally fell in love with it!
 

  

My favorite element of the wedding was her bouquet. First off it was just adorable, and two, she has an inside joke with her mom about butterflies and in her bouquet sat perfectly placed a butterfly. totally precious.


 

  
 


 

does anyone realize how hard it is to take pictures when your eyes are soaked with tears???
