Emily + Megan | dubuque iowa wedding

July 28, 2016

To say that I was honored to photograph Megan & Emily’s wedding would be an understatement. Megan was an usher in my own wedding & I photographed Megan’s surprise proposal to Emily. It’s so uplifting to see these two women who are so strong in their faith & in their love for each other. They are unwaveringly supportive of each other’s hope & dreams. Over two years later I’m still so happy to see their marriage grow each day. Love you two! Happy 2nd Anniversary + a couple of weeks! 😉

{In Their Words}

  • {3 words to describe Emily, by Megan} cute, artistic, amazing
  • {3 words to describe Megan, by Emily} funny, passionate, cute
  • I knew I wanted to spend forever with my love when…
    • Emily: “She gave me a little gold ring box with a folded heart in the middle. When I unfolded it, she had written “831” in the middle which means “I love you.” 8 letters, 3 words, 1 meaning.”
  • What is something you both have in common?
    • Megan: “We both want the same things in life.”
    • Emily: “We both love to help other people, discuss about our faith, and love to learn new things.”
  • What is something that’s totally different about the two of you?
    • Megan: “We have drastically political views.”
    • Emily: “Megan’s brain works completely different than mine. She’s more logical and I’m more creative.”
  • What is a fun fact/something people might not guess about your fiancé?
    • Megan: “She has Jesus scars. When she was little she was going down a water slide and somehow injured her feet and there are now scars on each that appear as if she had nails through her feet.”
    • Emily: “One would think that Megan only likes cop shows, but she has a new-found love of Lord of the Rings.”
