These two had their 12 year wedding anniversary this past Summer so we thought it would be perfect to do a little anniversary styled shoot with Grace and Char as our models. I have always looked up to them for being amazing parents, husband/wife and pastor/pastor’s wife. I am always learning from their wisdom and so humbled by their willingness to always let me take pictures of them or their kids. Thank you, Grace and Char, for an amazing anniversary shoot and for being willing to feed each other cake for a shot (I am always getting my couples to feed each other for the camera. Foodie at heart here.) Hope you enjoy Grace and Char’s anniversary session and their love story below as told by Grace.

“The last 12 years have been a blur. 12 years ago, we fell hard and fast, and the next thing I know, I am up and leaving school at 18 years old, moving to Northern California, and marrying a guy I basically just got to know. Turns out it was the best decision of my life, and God has been enormously faithful to us. By His good grace, we have gotten to travel together, have had 3 incredible and beautiful children, helped start and pastor a church, have found ourselves amongst the most loving and inspiring community of people, and have grown and changed immensely.”-Grace B.
