I am so excited to finally share about a special project we were part of earlier this year. Well before the pandemic hit, we were blissfully running through the sand dunes of the Sahara Desert in Morocco, taking photos of gorgeous, handmade wedding dresses, watching sunset and traveling, unaware of what would come in the months ahead. But let’s rewind a few months before that even, and go back to the start of the idea for these amazing gowns.

Patagonia brought out its finest for them. Between sunshine, wind, rain, and clouds, Caitlin and Tim said their vows, read from scripture, and exchanged rings. We scrambled over boulders and marveled at the gem-colored waters of the “Laguna” before us. After exploring the extents of walkable terrain around the lake, Caitlin and Tim popped champagne while it rained sideways with the wind. They hugged tight, stoked beyond stoked to experience the fullness of joy and love and adventure with Patagonia’s infamous weather. And just as soon as it came, the clouds cleared and we hiked down in dry weather to camp for the night.

I remember when we first got the email from Kasey and Erich asking if we were interested in flying to Central Argentina and Patagonia for their wedding. I definitely thought it sounded too good to be true, and tried my best not to get my hopes up. What they described was quite literally my dream wedding to shoot — equally adventurous as it was intimate.
