Since I’m deep in editing mode this week (hello, endless cups of coffee and cozy playlists), I wanted to take a little pause and share a favorite from the archive—Aubrianna and Campbell’s winter wedding in Goliad. This one has stuck with me for so many reasons, and honestly, I still think about it often.
Their wedding wasn’t held in some grand ballroom or trendy venue—instead, they chose a place that meant something deeply personal: Campbell’s grandmother’s home. Tucked away in the heart of Goliad, this wasn’t just any house. It once doubled as an art gallery, and it felt like it. There was so much soul and character in every corner. You could feel the family history in the walls, the kind of love that had been growing there for generations.
The ceremony took place in a small white chapel near the property, and let me tell you—it was straight out of a dream. Quiet, intimate. The pews were lined with their closest people, and the air was thick with emotion. There were tears, laughter, and that beautiful kind of stillness that only happens when everyone is fully present. No distractions, no fluff—just Aubrianna and Campbell, promising forever in the sweetest little chapel.
Afterward, everyone gathered in the garden for the reception. Imagine winding paths, candlelit tables, and the soft hum of conversation. Vintage furniture was sprinkled throughout the space, each piece adding to the eclectic charm that mirrored their personalities so well. The night unfolded slowly and intentionally—no strict timelines, just the natural rhythm of people enjoying each other.
As the sun dipped and the cool evening settled in, guests cozied up around the fire. Drinks in hand, stories flowing. Friends and family wrapped in blankets, sharing stories about Aubrianna and Campbell, swapping old memories, and marveling at how beautiful the day had been. It was more than a reception; it felt like a celebration of life and love and history.
What I loved most was how nothing felt overly styled or fussed over. Every detail had meaning. It was beautifully imperfect in all the best ways—real, heartfelt, and artistic. The whole day felt like it could’ve been pulled from the pages of a novel, one of those timeless love stories you return to again and again.
Aubrianna and Campbell’s wedding reminded me why I love what I do. It wasn’t about the perfect shot or the Pinterest-worthy setup—it was about capturing them, exactly as they are. And I feel so lucky to have been a small part of it.
