SHELDON COLLECTIVE

So excited to share Jenna and Drew’s STUNNING wedding. We were so grateful to be a part of it.

Witnessing the authentic love and beauty throughout the Biddell’s celebration was really special. Guests and family alike were united in grace and kindness and it was truly amazing to see.

We couldn’t keep the photos to just one post, so we made 3!😅🤍💍

We hope you enjoy, and special thanks to:

Sending my heartfelt congratulations to and Bethany on their recent engagement! My big sis heart is so proud!

Ever since my brother asked me to photograph this important moment for him, I’ve been loving all the planning updates and sweet details that he has shared about his proposal. His love for Bethany is so special and I couldn’t get over the joy and connection they shared during our shoot.

Enjoy some sneak peek photos from the big moment 🥳

With the wedding industry hitting the breaks real hard right now, I wondered if I should post these photos.

But the more I thought about it, the more I saw the necessity of celebrating love amidst the hard things we’re all experiencing right now.

My heart breaks for those couples who have had to make the crushing decision to postpone or cancel their weddings.

What seems to ground them, and what can ground all of us, is though our plans have been drastically altered, nothing can “cancel” the steadfast commitment to loving each other through the ups and downs.

Devin and Joe totally embodied this. At our proposal shoot, the cops literally closed the lake front path while I was hiding with my camera and Joe was ready to surprise Devin on her bike ride. Instead of focusing on the awful timing of it all, Joe walked up to a police man and asked if he could still propose now that most people had left the trail. He was steadfast in finding a way to express his love to Devin and it paid off. The cop and a few other squad cars escorted him to the most picturesque spot in front of the skyline, and when Devin arrived (with ZERO idea what was going on) he popped the question and beautifully overcame what was becoming another corona-letdown.

Their pure joy and overwhelming emotion was incredible. And being a witness to experiences like that is truly why I shoot weddings. No matter what surrounds the occasion, it really all comes down to celebrating the love that is at the center.
