Some sessions mean a little more—and this was one of them.Val and Taurus reached out to celebrate their 10-year anniversary with something they had been thinking about for a long time. When they got married years ago, Val wasn’t fully satisfied with how their wedding video and portraits turned out. It never quite reflected how the day felt to her.
So instead of letting that be the final version of their story, they decided to revisit it.
Ten years later.
We planned an anniversary session that gave them the space to do it right this time—photos and video that actually matched their connection.Val stepped back into her wedding dress, and honestly, it didn’t look dated at all. It still fit her beautifully and carried the same presence it must have had the first time. Taurus put on his tux, and just like that, it felt like we were stepping into a moment that had been waiting to happen.
We started with getting ready coverage—slower, more intentional. The kind of moments that are easy to overlook but end up meaning a lot later. Small interactions, quiet anticipation, just being present in it.
From there, we moved into outdoor portraits.
Nothing overly complicated. Just clean, well-composed shots and space for them to be themselves. You could tell they were more comfortable this time around—more grounded, more connected, and not caught up in the pressure of a wedding day timeline.
That made all the difference.
The session leaned into both photo and video, capturing a mix of editorial-style portraits and real, unscripted moments. The goal wasn’t to recreate their wedding—it was to give them something better. Something that actually reflected who they are now.
When Val saw the final images and video montage, her reaction said everything.
She loved it.
She mentioned that the portraits felt even stronger than the ones she had originally paid over $10,000 for years ago. Not just in how they looked, but in how they felt. More natural. More true to them.
And that’s really the point of sessions like this.
