NOTE —

If your blog post's featured images are fairly low resolution, you may want to delete the top image canvas. Your blog will still look gorgeous, but the top banner section looks best when you upload an image that's 2500px on the long side. You can also use our fave TinyJpeg to make them small so your blog posts still load quickly!

COVID Elopement Micro Wedding | California Wedding Photographer | Redding, California | We The Blackwells

Hannah and Jonathan had originally planned to be married in Jonathan’s home in Switzerland – but when COVID changed the plans for their wedding day, they didn’t miss a beat, and planned the most beautiful micro wedding on a friend’s property. It couldn’t have been more perfect! They both looked amazing, and their guests were all friends who have been close to them on their journey of dating and through their engagement.

While this year has been very different mostly photographing smaller weddings and events, it has been so beautiful because we’ve been able to see the level of intimacy and close connection available at these smaller events. Although changing the plans for your wedding may feel like a loss, and does require letting go of previous expectations of what the day might look like, Hannah and Jonathan’s wedding is an AMAZING example of all the beauty you can create at a small event.

(THE MUSHY FEELINGS PART)

Why we (really) shoot weddings

Relationships are not always a walk in the park on a sunny day.

Sometimes it feels like you’re walking in the wind, in a thunderstorm without an umbrella, you know? But when you’re TOGETHER in that storm with the perfect someone, it's always worth it. 

We know from experience in how life changing a positive intimate relationship can be (seriously, if you’d have met both of us prior to our marriage you wouldn’t believe it was us). We get to cheer each other on, call each other out, and choose to love each other in every moment. It’s the best. It’s simple, but it’s sacred. 



And THAT is why we do what we do.

It’s our mission to support every couple: help you relax and stay present, from your first call with us to the moment you’re cuddled up scrolling through your wedding gallery and wiping away fresh tears. 

It’s our honor to capture every wedding, because we recognize the sacredness of your love and relationship. 

Totally chill if that’s not your thing (it’s a pretty sappy WHY but it’s real), so no hard feelings if you want to just head back to google now. But if this hit you in the feels, we’ve got you 👀
