Early on in our career working together as wedding photographers, my partner and I had front row seats the turmoil that was part of planning a traditional wedding. A lot of times the machinery of the wedding industry and family pressure would grind couples right down into accepting products and services that didn't serve them nor celebrate what they valued.

We'd put off our own wedding for a while until one evening, sitting on the couch, I jokingly told Theo. 'Let's just elope.' 'Is that even an option?' he asked. So we looked it up and two weeks later at 10.30 am on a Wednesday, said our vows at the Nairobi Attorney General's Office in front of a handful of friends and family. We had a lovely slow day at at home with gorgeous food and wine, played music and had conversations till late in the night. It was a bit silly, irreverent, and now when I look at the pictures my friend Barbara made, beautiful and so us. 

I bet you're here because you feel the same way. That your special day should feel like YOUR special day.
