Monument: Tally & Matt – Part I

It’s finally Friday!  What a week!  I started off on the West Coast sailing in San Francisco and am ending it on the East Coast teaching in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.  I’m looking forward to being home and sharing the final few weddings of the year with you – and hugging Calvin the Cat, let’s be honest.  Until then, today we kick off our stint of October weddings – pretty much my favorite month.  I love fall. :-)

Tally and Matt are two of a kind.  There are not enough sweet words in the dictionary to describe just how sweet they really are.  Tally’s adopted me as a new friend and Matt gives me advice on all those speeding tickets I incur. ;-) Okay, it was just the one, but Matt is a police officer and was there when I needed him.  TMI?  Eh… who cares.  We’re all family here.

Matt and Tally,  THANK YOU.  Your wedding was such a wonderful experience.  Your hearts are so big.  I think that was proven at the end of the day… :-)  Thank you for loving each other the way you do and for being so gosh, darn excited about photography.  I could photograph you two until the cows come home. ;-)

So much love and joy to you both!  Can’t wait to see you around church!

With love,
René

With 20 years of experience, I bring a calm, steady presence to your most meaningful days. I specialize in documenting relationships over time—from weddings and anniversaries to babies and families—with a love for black-and-white imagery, honest moments, and photographs that belong in albums, not just on a feed. There are no forced poses or “pretend to” prompts here, only space for what’s real. I’m not just here for the highlight; I’m here for the history you’re creating.

And I can't wait to capture your story
