Ashley and Artem are two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met – and this anniversary photoshoot was so perfect for them.

I really appreciate it when couples go out of their way to celebrate anniversaries and milestones. Life’s full of monotony, so why not celebrate absolutely everything you can?

These two chose to spend their anniversary at the Aldridge House, getting dressed back up in their wedding attire and reading the personal vows they wrote for their wedding day. When they told me this was their plan, I swooned! So much emotion in their words…and new meaning to them after their first year of marriage. It was such a beautiful moment to document for them.
Ashley and Artem decided to bring a second outfit – and can we just take a moment to appreciate them?! I’m still not over her choice of dress: plum colored velvet with lace panels, and the peter-pan collar? Paired with the dreamy colors of golden hour, this part of the photoshoot was just as delightful as the vows.
