Kelly + Travis

K e l l y   +   T r a v i s


I have had the pleasure of knowing both Kelly and Travis since high school. We've watched each other grow up finish college, start careers and become adults. The two of them have been together since then, since the beginning. In fact I think the first time I met Kelly they were already a pair. A pair of the sweetest, charismatic, most sincere people I've known. When I first heard of their engagement I stuck my hand up and asked if I could be a part of the wedding story as their photographer. There is nothing better than doing what you love for incredible people and I was certain the two of them were just that. 

Kelly's empathy and understanding for everyone around her is something you don't see a lot. It was at our second meeting that I watched her eyes well with tears. Worried that their wedding (at a well known city church) would some how inconvenience those who lived and hung around it. I walked away from that meeting proud of myself for raising my hand. We would work together just fine. 

 But thats not it, the sense of humor they each have and when combined is a force to be reckoned with. I still remember the year they went as Ron Swanson and a slice of bacon for Halloween and completely NAILED IT. Well, their wedding day was just as I imagined it would be. A perfect harmony of deep emotion and comedy. Their friends and family are the ultimate compliment to both with flying dirty jokes happy tears and dedicated music solos. I wish we could live this day over and over again with Kelly and Travis.
