A Year of Stories, Connection, and Moments to Remember

And just like that, another year comes to a close.

As we sit here, reflecting on everything that 2024 has given us, we can’t help but feel overwhelmingly grateful. Grateful for the people, the places, the raw emotions, and the stories we’ve had the privilege to capture. This year wasn’t just about photographing weddings or sessions; it was about connection. It was about being invited into your world – a front-row seat to some of the most beautiful, genuine, and fleeting moments of your lives.

The hugs. The happy tears. The laughter that echoed for hours. The quiet glances that said more than words ever could.

These are the things that matter. And these are the things we live to capture.

The Stories That Made Our Year

2024 was a whirlwind, filled with memories that will stick with us for years to come. The kind of memories that remind us why we do what we do.

  • The sunrise ceremony on the coast where the waves crashed softly and the sky turned a watercolor palette as two people promised forever. It felt like the whole world paused to celebrate.

  • The backyard wedding with fairy lights and homemade everything – a day full of love, laughter, and people who made it feel like magic.

  • The unexpected downpour that turned a wedding day into a dance-in-the-rain moment. No one cared about wet hair or muddy shoes; they cared about being there, present, and full of joy. The photos? Pure gold.

  • The quiet elopement in the mountains where we hiked to the perfect spot, surrounded by nothing but nature and promises whispered on the wind.

These moments, and so many others, are etched into our hearts. Every couple, every family, every person we’ve worked with this year has brought something so real and so uniquely them to our lives.

It’s About the Little Things

One of our favorite parts of this year was capturing the moments you didn’t know were happening. The hand squeezes. The tears just before you walked down the aisle. The toddler who refused to leave the dance floor. The grandparents who held each other close during a slow song.

Those little in-between moments? They’re everything. They’re the magic that you’ll look back on years from now and feel all over again.

We’ve always believed that photography is about more than perfectly posed shots or planned details. It’s about capturing what’s real. It’s about storytelling. It’s about looking back and remembering not just how it looked, but how it felt.

And 2024 gave us a million moments that felt like that – messy, honest, full of life, and utterly unforgettable.

Thank You, From the Bottom of Our Hearts

To every couple, every family, every human who trusted us to tell their story this year – thank you.

Thank you for being vulnerable. Thank you for letting us in. Thank you for showing us what love looks like in all its forms – loud, quiet, wild, gentle, chaotic, and calm. You’ve allowed us to create something meaningful, and that’s the biggest privilege of all.

Every hug, every “thank you,” every “we couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing this” has meant the world to us.

Looking Forward to 2025

While we’re wrapping up 2024 with full hearts and tired feet (seriously, wedding season is a workout!), we’re also so excited for what’s ahead.

A new year means new stories to tell. It means new couples, new families, new adventures, and new places to explore. Whether it’s an intimate elopement at sunrise, a big, wild celebration with all your people, or a quiet session that captures the beauty of this season in your life – we’re ready for it all.

To those of you already on our 2025 calendar – we cannot wait. And for anyone out there dreaming of a day that feels authentic and beautiful, let’s make it happen. If you’re looking for someone to capture your story as it truly is – real, raw, and full of heart – we’d love to be a part of it.

Here’s to a New Year of Memories

As we close the chapter on 2024, we’re carrying so many memories with us – memories of love, light, and everything in between.

Here’s to 2025. Here’s to more stories, more genuine connection, and more moments that remind us all why love matters so much.

From our little Feather & Finch family to yours – thank you for making this year so incredibly special. We’re endlessly grateful.

Let’s make 2025 one for the books.

With all our love and gratitude,
The Feather & Finch Team
